Abstract
Description
A pharmaceutical composition Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of biomedicine, specifically to a pharmaceutical composition. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) can selectively deliver drugs to cancer cells and kill tumor cells, while having little impact on normal cells, ushering in a new era in cancer treatment. As ADCs, several drugs have already received FDA approval, such as DS-8201, which is composed of a Her2 antibody and a camptothecin derivative Dxd, for the treatment of HER2-positive breast cancer patients.
[0003] However, due to tumor heterogeneity and multidrug resistance (MDR) regulation, DXd or SN-38ADCs still face inherent and acquired resistance.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop an ADC (anti-tumor drug) that is not prone to drug resistance, is highly effective, and safe, and has a multi-drug, multi-target mechanism of action. This is of great significance for developing anti-tumor drugs with excellent anti-tumor efficacy and safety. Summary of the Invention
[0005] This application introduces two drugs with different mechanisms into an ADC. Specifically, it screens for drugs that synergistically act with camptothecin or its derivatives (e.g., exatecan, DXD, topotecan, irinotecan, belotecone, 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin (SN38)) from different tumor growth pathway inhibitors (such as TKIs, CDKIs, ATKIs, etc.). Camptothecin or its derivatives are then sequentially coupled to the same antibody using a sequential coupling method, resulting in a dual-load ADC combining camptothecin or its derivatives with other drugs of different targets and mechanisms of action. This achieves one or more of the following advantages:
[0006] (1) The precise combination therapy at the cellular level of this application, the combination of chemical drugs with different mechanisms of action, blocks the survival channels of tumor cells on a larger scale. According to the different mechanisms of tumor development, the combination of drugs with different mechanisms of action can achieve a synergistic therapeutic effect of 1+1>2.
[0007] (2) Traditional single-load conjugates often use high cytotoxic loads and high DAR value designs due to their single mechanism of action, which inevitably leads to serious toxic side effects in clinical applications. This application uses a combination of low cytotoxic compounds with different mechanisms of action and synergistic effects, which relatively reduces the overall toxicity of the conjugate and improves patients' quality of life and treatment compliance;
[0008] (3) Dual-load ADC therapy carrying drugs with multiple mechanisms of action and multiple targets avoids acquired drug resistance caused by long-term administration of single drugs;
[0009] It extended the patient's survival time.

[0082] Terminology Definition
[0083] In this application, the term "antibody-drug conjugate" generally refers to an ADC, i.e., a binding protein (e.g., an antibody or its antigen-binding fragment) linked to one or more chemical drugs. The chemical drugs can be any therapeutic agent and / or cytotoxic agent. The antibody-drug conjugate can have any number of drugs conjugated to the antibody from 1 to 8, for example, it can include 2, 4, 6, or 8 drug-loaded species. In this application, the drugs can include mitotic inhibitors, antitumor antibiotics, immunomodulators, vectors for gene therapy, alkylating agents, anti-angiogenic agents, antimetabolites, boron-containing agents, chemotherapeutic agents, hormones, anti-hormonal agents, corticosteroids, photosensitizing agents, oligonucleotides, radioactive isotopes, topoisomerase inhibitors, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, and / or radiosensitizers.
[0084] In this application, the term "drug / antibody ratio" or "DAR" generally refers to the number of drugs linked to an antibody in an ADC. The DAR of an ADC can range from 1 to 8, or even higher loads (e.g., 10), and the range of DAR can depend on the number of binding sites on the antibody. In this application, the DAR can be the number of drugs loaded onto a single antibody. The DAR can also be the average or mean DAR of a group of ADCs.
[0085] In this application, the term "bispecific antibody" generally refers to an antibody capable of binding to two antigens or antigenic epitopes, respectively. The bispecific antibody may include light and heavy chains of an antibody capable of specifically binding to a first antigen or antigenic epitope, and light and heavy chains of an antibody capable of specifically binding to a second antigen or antigenic epitope. In one embodiment of this application, the light chains of the antibody capable of specifically binding to the first antigen or antigenic epitope and the light chains of the antibody capable of specifically binding to the second antigen or antigenic epitope in the bispecific antibody have the same sequence. In one embodiment of this application, the heavy chains of the antibody capable of specifically binding to the first antigen or antigenic epitope and the heavy chains of the antibody capable of specifically binding to the second antigen or antigenic epitope in the bispecific antibody have different sequences.
[0086] In this application, the term "pharmaceutical composition" generally refers to a formulation in which one or more active ingredients are biologically effective. A pharmaceutical composition may include a first drug and a second drug. In some embodiments, the first drug and the second drug are present in the form of an antibody-drug conjugate. In some embodiments, the first drug and the second drug are conjugated to different targeting peptides, i.e., the pharmaceutical composition includes at least two different antibody-drug conjugates. In some embodiments, the first drug and the second drug are conjugated to the same targeting peptide, i.e., the pharmaceutical composition includes at least one antibody-drug conjugate with a dual drug load.
[0087] In this application, the term "targeting peptide" generally refers to a peptide that specifically or selectively binds to a target molecule, cell, particle, tissue, or aggregate. For example, a targeting peptide can be an antibody, antibody fragment, bispecific antibody, antigen-binding fragment, or other antibody-based molecule or compound. Other examples of targeting moieties may also be those known in the art, such as aptamers, avimers, receptor-binding ligands, nucleic acids, biotin-avidin binding pairs, binding peptides, or proteins.
[0088] In this application, the term "antibody" is generally used in the broadest sense and specifically encompasses monoclonal antibodies, polyclonal antibodies, dimers, multimers, multispecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies), and antibody fragments, provided they exhibit the desired biological activity (Miller et al. (2003) Jour. of Immunology 170:4854-4861). The native form of an antibody is typically a tetramer and consists of two identical pairs of immunoglobulin chains, each pair having one light chain and one heavy chain. In each pair, the variable regions (VL and VH) of the light and heavy chains together are primarily responsible for binding to the antigen. The variable domains of the light and heavy chains consist of a framework region interrupted by three hypervariable regions (also known as "complementarity-determining regions" or "CDRs"). The constant regions are recognized by and interact with the immune system. (See, for example, Janeway et al., 2001, Immunol. Biology, 5th ed., Garland Publishing, New York). Antibodies can be of any type (e.g., IgG, IgE, IgM, IgD, and IgA), class (e.g., IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA1, and IgA2), or subclass. Antibodies can be derived from any suitable species. In some embodiments, antibodies are human or murine. Antibodies can be, for example, human, humanized, or chimeric antibodies.
[0089] In this application, the term "monoclonal antibody" generally refers to an antibody obtained from a substantially homogeneous group of antibodies (i.e., the individual antibodies constituting the group are identical except for a small amount of possible naturally occurring mutations). Monoclonal antibodies are highly specific, targeting a single antigenic site. The modifier "monoclonal" indicates that the antibody acquires this characteristic from a substantially homogeneous group of antibodies, and should not be construed as requiring the antibody to be produced by any particular method.
[0090] In this application, a “complete antibody” is generally an antibody that comprises an antigen-binding variable region as well as a light chain constant domain (CL) and heavy chain constant domains CH1, CH2, CH3, and CH4. The constant domain can be a natural sequence constant domain (e.g., a human natural sequence constant domain) or a variant thereof.
[0091] In this application, an "antibody fragment" generally comprises a portion of a complete antibody, including its antigen-binding or variable region. Examples of antibody fragments include Fab, Fab', F(ab')2 and Fv fragments, double-chain antibodies, triple-chain antibodies, quadruple-chain antibodies, linear antibodies, single-chain antibody molecules, scFv, scFv-Fc, multispecific antibody fragments formed from one or more antibody fragments, one or more fragments generated from a Fab expression library, or an epitope-binding fragment of any of the above, which binds immune-specifically to a target antigen (e.g., cancer cell antigen, viral antigen, or microbial antigen).
[0092] In this application, the term "antigen" generally refers to an entity that an antibody specifically binds to.
[0093] In this application, the terms "specific binding" and "specifically binding" refer to the ability of an antibody or antibody derivative to bind to a corresponding epitope of its target antigen in a highly selective manner without binding to a variety of other antigens. Typically, the antibody or antibody derivative binds at a concentration of at least about 1 x 10-1. -7 M, preferably 10 -8 M to 10 -9 M, 10 -10 M, 10 -11 M or 10 -12 M binds with its affinity and binds to the predetermined antigen with an affinity at least twice as great as that it binds to non-specific antigens other than the predetermined antigen or closely related antigens (e.g., BSA, casein).
[0094] In this application, the term "antigen-binding fragment" refers to a portion of a complete antibody and specifically to the antigen-determining variable region of a complete antibody. Examples of antigen-binding fragments include, but are not limited to, Fab, Fab', F(ab')2, Fv and single-chain Fv fragments, linear antibodies, single-chain antibodies, and multispecific antibodies formed from antigen-binding fragments.
[0095] In this application, the term "Fab" generally refers to a fragment containing a heavy chain variable domain and a light chain variable domain, and also contains a constant domain of the light chain and a first constant domain (CH1) of the heavy chain; the term "Fab'" generally refers to a fragment different from Fab by adding a small number of residues (including one or more cysteine residues from the antibody hinge region) to the carboxyl terminus of the heavy chain CH1 domain; the term "F(ab')2" generally refers to a dimer of Fab', comprising an antibody fragment containing two Fab fragments linked by disulfide bridges on the hinge region. The term "Fv" generally refers to the smallest antibody fragment containing a complete antigen recognition and binding site. In some cases, this fragment may consist of a dimer of a heavy chain variable region and a light chain variable region bound tightly non-covalently; the term "dsFv" generally refers to a disulfide-bonded Fv fragment, wherein the bond between a single light chain variable region and a single heavy chain variable region is a disulfide bond. The term "dAb fragment" generally refers to an antibody fragment composed of VH domains. In this application, the term "scFv" generally refers to a monovalent molecule formed by the covalent pairing of a heavy chain variable domain and a light chain variable domain of an antibody via a flexible peptide linker; such scFv molecules may have a general structure: NH2-VL-linker-VH-COOH or NH2-VH-linker-VL-COOH.
[0096] In this application, the term "fully human antibody" generally refers to an antibody expressed by transferring a human antibody-encoding gene into a genetically engineered animal lacking an antibody gene. All parts of the antibody (including the variable and constant regions) are encoded by a human-derived gene. Fully human antibodies can significantly reduce the immune side effects caused by heterologous antibodies in humans. Methods for obtaining fully human antibodies in this field include phage display technology, transgenic mouse technology, ribosome display technology, and RNA-peptide technology, among others.
[0097] In this application, the term "specific binding" generally refers to binding to a specific target without cross-reactivity to other targets. For example, when an antibody binds to an epitope via its antigen-binding domain, and this binding requires some complementarity between the antigen-binding domain and the epitope, according to this definition, an antibody is said to "specifically bind" to the antigen when it is more likely to bind to an epitope via its antigen-binding domain than to a random, unrelated epitope. Selective reactivity, on the other hand, generally refers to preferential binding to a specific target.
[0098] In this application, the term "tumor-specific antigen" generally refers to a protein that is primarily or exclusively expressed on tumor cells. "Primary expression" means that the protein is expressed at a relatively higher level on tumor cells than on normal somatic cells, while "exclusively expressed" means that the protein is expressed on tumor cells but is not detectable on normal somatic cells by standard methods known in the art.
[0099] In this application, the term "conjugate" refers to a polypeptide (e.g., peptide, nucleic acid, protein, enzyme, sugar, polysaccharide, lipid, glycoprotein, and lipoprotein) and its chemical portion that are covalently or non-covalently (e.g., via a linker) linked into a larger molecule. The chemical portion that may be included in a conjugate may be a therapeutic agent or a cytotoxic agent, and non-limiting examples include: mitotic inhibitors, antitumor antibiotics, immunomodulators, vectors for gene therapy, alkylating agents, anti-angiogenic agents, antimetabolites, boron-containing agents, chemoprotective agents, hormones, anti-hormonal agents, corticosteroids, photoactive therapeutic agents, oligonucleotides, radioactive isotopes, topoisomerase inhibitors, kinase inhibitors, and radiosensitizers.
[0100] In this application, the term "Her2" generally refers to a type I transmembrane protein belonging to the epidermal growth factor receptor family, also known as c-erbB2, ErbB2, or Neu (Slamon, et al., Science 235(1987) 177-182; Swiss-Prot P04626). In this application, the term "Her2" may also encompass homologs, variants, and isoforms of Her2, including splice isoforms. The term "Her2" also includes proteins having one or more sequences from Her2 homologs, variants, and isoforms, as well as fragments of such sequences, provided that the variant protein (including isoforms), homolog, and / or fragment can be recognized by one or more Her-specific antibodies (such as pertuzumab or trastuzumab). Her2 is associated with tumor transformation in human breast cancer cells, and overexpression of Her2 protein has been detected in patients with breast cancer, gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, ovarian cancer, peritoneal cancer, or colorectal cancer.
[0101] In this application, the terms "Trop2" and "TROP2" generally refer to a single-pass transmembrane type I cell membrane protein, also known as tumor-associated calcium signal transducer 2 (TACSTD2), GA733-1, EGP-1, or MIS1. In this application, the term "Trop2" may also encompass homologs, variants, and isoforms of Trop 2, including splice isoforms. The term "Trop" also includes proteins having one or more sequences of Trop 2 homologs, variants, and isoforms, as well as fragments of such sequences, provided that the variant protein (including isoforms), homologous protein, and / or fragment can be recognized by one or more Trop-specific antibodies (such as hRS7 or hTINA1). Trop2 may be human Trop2, the DNA sequence and amino acid sequence of which are available in public databases, such as NCBI accessions NM_002353 and NP_002344.
[0102] In this application, the term "EGFR" generally belongs to the ErbB family of receptor tyrosine kinases and plays a key role in the physiological mechanisms of epithelial cells. The amino acid sequence of human EGFR protein can be found in UniProt / Swiss-Prot accession number P00533. In this application, the targeting peptide can bind to EGFR protein. In this application, the terms "EGFR protein," "EGFR antigen," and "EGFR-Fc recombinant protein" are used interchangeably and include any variant or isotype thereof naturally expressed by cells.
[0103] In this application, the terms "c-met," "cmet," or "Met" refer to any natural or variant (whether natural or synthetic) c-met polypeptide. c-MET, short for c-mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (c-Met), is a receptor tyrosine kinase that, upon binding to its ligand hepatocyte growth factor, activates various cell signaling pathways, including those involved in proliferation, motility, migration, and invasion. c-Met proteins include polypeptides encoded by the nucleotide sequence identified with GenBank accession number NM_000245, proteins encoded by the polypeptide sequence identified with GenBank accession number NM_000236, or their extracellular domains. The term "wild-type c-met" generally refers to a polypeptide containing the amino acid sequence of a naturally occurring c-met protein. The term "wild-type c-met sequence" generally refers to the amino acid sequence found in naturally occurring c-met.
[0104] In this application, the term "topoisomerase inhibitor" includes both topoisomerase I inhibitors and topoisomerase II inhibitors. Examples of topoisomerase I inhibitors include, but are not limited to, topotecan, gimatecan, irinotecan, camptothecin and its analogues, 9-nitrocamptothecin and macrocamptothecin conjugate PNU-166148 (compound A1 in WO 99 / 17804); 10-hydroxycamptothecin acetate; etoposide; idarubicin hydrochloride; irinotecan hydrochloride; teniposide; topotecan, topotecan hydrochloride; doxorubicin; epirubicin, epirubicin hydrochloride; 4'-epirarubicin, mitoxantrone, mitoxantrone hydrochloride; daunorubicin, daunorubicin hydrochloride, pentorubicin, and dasatinib (BMS-354825).

[0105] In this application, the term "nucleoside analog antimetabolite" refers to molecules that act in a nucleoside-like manner during DNA synthesis. These include a range of antiviral products used to prevent viral replication in infected cells. Nucleoside analogs can be used to combat hepatitis B virus, hepatitis C virus, herpes simplex virus, and HIV. Once phosphorylated, nucleoside analogs bind to the growing DNA strand with sufficient similarity to nucleotides to exert an antimetabolite effect.

These tubular polymers composed of tubulin can be up to 50 micrometers long, with an average length of 25 micrometers, and are highly dynamic. The outer diameter of a microtubule is approximately 24 nanometers, and the inner diameter is approximately 12 nanometers. Microtubules are found in eukaryotic cells and are composed of dimers of two globular proteins (α- and β-tubulin). Tubulin is one of several members in a small family of globular proteins. The tubulin superfamily includes five distinct families: α-, β-, γ-, δ-, and ε-tubulin, as well as a sixth family found only in protozoa. The most common members of the tubulin family are α-tubulin and β-tubulin, which are the proteins that make up microtubules. Microtubules are crucial in many cellular processes. They are involved in maintaining cellular structure.

As the rate-limiting factor in the mammalian NAD biosynthesis pathway, NAMPT plays a central role in cellular processes. In addition to its enzymatic function, the secreted form of NAMPT has a dual nature, acting as both an immunomodulatory cytokine and an adipokin with anti-diabetic properties. NAMPT plays a crucial role in regulating circadian rhythm function by coordinating NAD oscillations through the release of CLOCK-BMAL1 heterodimers from NAD-dependent SIRT1-mediated inhibition, thereby regulating the expression of clock target genes. The amino acid sequence of the human NAMPT protein can be found in UniProt / Swiss-Prot accession number P43490.

The targeting peptide may be a mouse, chimeric, humanized, or fully human monoclonal antibody, which may be in whole, fragment (Fab', Fab, F(ab)2, F(ab')2, Fv, or scFv) or subfragment (single-chain construct) form, or be an isotype of IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA, or a submolecule thereof. Those skilled in the art will recognize that the conjugates, methods, compositions, and uses described herein can utilize any of the many antibodies known in the art. The antibodies used are commercially available from a variety of known sources.
[0174] In some embodiments, M may be a fully human antibody. Methods for producing fully human antibodies using combinatorial methods or transgenic animals transformed with human immunoglobulin loci are known in the art. The fully human antibody is expected to exhibit fewer side effects than chimeric or humanized antibodies and function as a substantially endogenous human antibody in vivo.
[0175] In some embodiments, M can be an antibody fragment. Antibody fragments can be obtained by conventional methods, such as digesting a full-length antibody with pepsin or papain. For example, antibody fragments can be produced by digesting an antibody with pepsin to provide a 5S fragment denoted as F(ab')2. This fragment can be further cleaved using a thiol reducing agent, and optionally using a blocking group of thiol groups resulting from disulfide bond cleavage, to produce a 3.5S Fab' monovalent fragment. For example, pepsin digestion produces two monovalent Fab fragments and one Fc fragment. Other methods of antibody cleavage can also be used, such as separating the heavy chain to form a monovalent light-heavy chain fragment, further cleaving the fragment, or other enzymatic, chemical, or genetic techniques, as long as the fragment binds to an antigen recognized by the intact antibody. In some cases, the Mab can be a single-chain antibody. These single-chain antibodies can be prepared by constructing a structural gene comprising a DNA sequence encoding a VH domain and a VL domain linked by an oligonucleotide linker sequence. The structural gene is inserted into an expression vector, which is then introduced into a host cell such as *Escherichia coli*. The recombinant host cell synthesizes a single polypeptide chain, wherein a linker peptide bridges two variable domains. Methods for generating scFv are well known in the art.
[0176] In some implementations, M can recognize or bind to markers or tumor-associated antigens, and can be expressed primarily or exclusively on cells that are diseased in relatively normal tissues, and can be internalized by cells.
[0177] In some embodiments, the targets or antigens that M can recognize or bind to may include: EGFR, VEGFR, FGFR, PDGFR, HER2, HER3, HER4, RET, cMET, Trop2, NTRK, PR / ER, CD20, PD-L1, B7-H3, Nectin-4, CLAN18.2, ROR1, MSLN, TNF-α, CD25, ENPP3, Muc1, Axl, CD20, ROR2, GPNMB, CEACAM6, CD138, PSMA, GC-C, LIV-1, CA6, FUT3, CD56, CD37, HER3, CD205, B7H4, CTLA4, RNF43, CDH3, DPEP3, 5T4, ITGB6, EFNA4, B7H3, CD228, Notch-3, CD46, CAIX, SLAMF6, ADAM9, GD3, TDGF1, SLAMF2, CLL-1, CD123, FCRL5, CEACAM5, Tissue Factor, FRα, BCMA, CD19, CD79b, CLDN18.2, or their mutants.
[0178] In some embodiments, M can specifically bind to one or more tumor-specific antigens. In some cases, the targeting peptide can be an antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof that reacts with an antigen or epitope expressed on tumor cells. Available tumor-specific antigens include one or more combinations of EGFR, cMET, HER2, and TROP2. For example, M can target EGFR, cMET, HER2, or TROP2 alone, or M can target EGFR and cMET simultaneously.
[0179] In some implementations, M may include an anti-HER2 antibody.
[0180] In some embodiments, the anti-HER2 antibody includes trastuzumab, pertuzumab, inetetamab, and margetuximab.
[0181] In some implementations, M may include an anti-EGFR antibody.
[0182] In some embodiments, the anti-EGFR antibody may include cetuximab, panitumumab, necitumumab, or nimotuzumab.
[0183] In some implementations, M may include an anti-TROP2 antibody.
[0184] In some embodiments, the anti-TROP2 antibody may include hRS7.
[0185] In some implementations, M can be an anti-EGFR / c-MET bispecific antibody.
[0186] In some embodiments, the anti-EGFR / c-MET bispecific antibody may include PM1080 or amivantamab.
[0187] The linking units (L1 and / or L2) include cleavable linkers, non-cleavable linkers, hydrophilic linkers, hydrophobic linkers, charged linkers, and uncharged linkers. In some embodiments, the linking unit is linked to M via a thiol, amino, carboxyl, phenolic hydroxyl, azide, or amide group on M. M comprises a first heavy chain and a second heavy chain, the first heavy chain and / or the second heavy chain containing sites capable of linking to the linking unit.
[0188] L1 and / or L2 can independently have the following structures:
[0189] ——La-Lb-Lc——
[0190] (Formula III)
[0191] Where La is the connection component; Lb is the key or release component; and Lc is the key or drug isolation component.
[0192] The primary function of the linker component La is to connect the first drug and / or the second drug to M. The connection occurs through a thiol, amino, carboxyl, phenolic hydroxyl, azide, or amide group on M. Therefore, La can include maleimide, succinimide, or DBCO groups. For example, La has the following structure:
[0193] It is linked to Lb, Lc, D1, or D2 via -C(=O)- or -O-, and can be linked to the target peptide (M) via the 3- and / or 4-positions of maleimide / maleamide; and R a -(CH2) n (C(=O)NH) m (CH2CH2O) s (CH2) t -,in,

[0196] s is an integer from 0 to 10. For example, s can be 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10.
[0197] t is an integer from 0 to 10. For example, t can be 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10.
[0198] Specifically, La can include
[0199] In some embodiments, Lb is a bond or a release component. The main function of Lb is that when the antibody-drug conjugate reaches tumor cells under the action of M, Lb can cleave under certain conditions, releasing drugs D1 and / or D2 into the tumor cells. Therefore, based on its mechanism, Lb can be a pH-controlled release component; for example, Lb is an acid cleavage release component with the following structure:
[0200] For example, Lb can be an enzyme cleavage and release component. Specifically, Lb can include -glycine-, -alanine-, -valine-, -leucine-, -isoleucine-, -proline-, -phenylalanine-, -tryptophan-, -methionine-, -tyrosine-, -serine-, -threonine-, -cysteine-, -asparagine-, -glutamine-, -aspartic acid-, -glutamic acid-, -lysine-, -arginine-, -histidine-, -citrulline-, -lysine (triphenylmethyl)-, -lysine (monomethoxytriphenylmethyl)- -Lysine (fluorenoxycarbonyl)-; -valine-citrulline-(-Val-Cit-), -valine-alanine-(-Val-Ala-), -valine-lysine-(-Val-Lys-), -valine-lysine (triphenylmethyl)-(-Val-Lys(Trt)-), -valine-lysine (monomethoxytriphenylmethyl)-(-Val-Lys(Mmt)-), -valine-lysine (fluorenoxycarbonyl)-(-Val-Lys(Fmoc)-), -valine-arginine- (-Val-Arg-), -phenylalanine-citrulline-(-Phe-Cit-), -phenylalanine-lysine-(-Phe-Lys-), -phenylalanine-lysine (triphenylmethyl)-(-Phe-Lys(Trt)-), -phenylalanine-lysine (monomethoxytriphenylmethyl)-(-Phe-Lys(Mmt)-), -phenylalanine-lysine (fluorenyloxycarbonyl)-(-Phe-Lys(Fmoc)-), -leucine-citrulline-(-Leu-Cit-), -isoleucine One of the following: -citrulline-(-Ile-Cit-), -phenylalanine-arginine-(-Phe-Arg-), -phenylalanine-arginine-arginine-(-Ala-Arg-Arg-), -glycine-glycine-phenylalanine-glycine-(-Gly-Gly-Phe-Gly-), -glycine-phenylalanine-leucine-glycine-(-Gly-Phe-Leu-Gly-), or -alanine-leucine-alanine-leucine-(-Ala-Leu-Ala-Leu-).
[0201] In some implementations, the structure of Lc can be Where X is -O-, -NH-, or -S-. R c This includes either bonds that are branched with amide groups or branched with carbonyl groups. For example, R c The structure can be a bond, -(C=O)- or -(C(=O)NH)CH2(C(=O)NH)(CH2OCH2)C(=O)-.

[0224] Example
[0225] Example 1 Antibody-Drug Conjugation
[0226] Example 1.1 Antibody Reduction
[0227] Prepare 20mM TCEP reducing agent (Tris-2-carboxyethy1-phosphine) with purified water, and prepare 20mM EDTA (Ethylene Diamine Tetraacetic Acid) protecting agent with purified water. Add a certain molar ratio (e.g., 1:2) of reducing agent and a certain volume ratio (e.g., 1:1) of protecting agent to a certain concentration of 3-30 mg / mL monoclonal / bispecific antibody according to different conjugation efficiencies and conjugation requirements. Stir the reaction system at 25℃-37℃ for 1-3 hours. The reduced antibody can be directly conjugated.
[0228] Example 1.2 Conjugation of antibody with -L1-D1
[0229] The linker-active drug loading D1 (i.e., the structure of -L1-D1) was dissolved in 10%-25% DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) to prepare a stock solution of a certain concentration of 5mM-10mM.

After slow addition of the drug, the mixture was stirred at 25℃ for 1-14h to obtain antibody-drug conjugate-1 (i.e., M-L1-D1).
[0230] After the reaction, the antibody-drug conjugate-1 was purified by centrifugation and ultrafiltration 3-5 times with PBS (pH: 7.4) buffer, or purified by a 40KD desalting column to remove excess unreacted drug and free small molecules such as DMSO. The conjugation status of antibody-drug conjugate-1 was detected by hydrophobic high-performance liquid chromatography (HIC-HPLC) or reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC), and the residual status of linker-active drug loading-D1 was detected by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC).

[0243] In this application, CP refers to the aforementioned drugs. For example, CP2 refers to drug 2, CP3 refers to drug 3, and CP22 refers to drug 22.
[0244] Example 3: In vitro experiment of EGFR / cMET dual-drug combination ADC
[0245] The in vitro efficacy of drugs 2 and 3 (CP2 and CP3) targeting EGFR*cMET was tested against other tumor cells expressing EGFR and cMET targets, including human malignant melanoma cells A-375 (low EGFR and low cMET expression), non-small cell lung cancer cells H1975 (medium EGFR and medium cMET expression), human colon cancer cells LS180 (medium EGFR and medium cMET expression), and human colon cancer cells HT-29 (high EGFR and high cMET expression). Drugs 17-22 (CP17, CP18, CP19, CP20, CP21, and CP22) used as controls, either alone or in combination. Cell lines were cultured in DMEM medium containing 10% placenta or 1640 medium containing 10% placenta, and seeded at 30,000 cells / well in 96-well plates. The cells were treated with antibody-drug conjugates 24 hours after seeding. The test sample was serially diluted with basal medium and transferred to cell culture plates containing cells at 100 μL / well. Incubation was performed at 37°C, 5% CO2, for 70-74 h. CCK-8 was diluted 10-fold with medium. The old medium was removed from the 96-well plate, and 100 μL of the diluted CCK-8 solution was added to each well. Incubation was performed at 37°C, 5% CO2, for 2-4 h. Readings were taken using a microplate reader at wavelengths of 450 nm / 655 nm. The percentage of inhibition and the maximum percentage of inhibition were calculated.
[0246] The percentage of inhibition was calculated. The results (Figures 3 and 4) show that bispecific antibodies targeting EGFR / cMET, coupled with drug 2 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I + Gefitinib chloride) and drug 3 (icherotecan + a NAMPT inhibitor), exhibited significant cytotoxicity in cell lines expressing EGFR and cMET. Furthermore, the results indicate that bispecific antibodies targeting EGFR / cMET coupled with the dual-loaded drugs of this invention, compared to a single-loaded drug 22 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I), demonstrated superior cytotoxic efficacy against cell lines expressing EGFR and cMET.
[0247] The results showed that the synergistic killing effect produced by the dual-antibody binding to two toxin molecules with different mechanisms of action (such as an inhibitor of topoisomerase I + Gefitinib chloride, or an inhibitor of topoisomerase I + NAMPT inhibitor) enabled the dual-loaded drugs to achieve a higher inhibition percentage at the same concentration. In the in vitro efficacy evaluation experiment of HCC827, at a drug concentration of 100 nM, the dual-loaded drug 2 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I + Gefitinib chloride) showed an approximately 13% higher inhibition percentage compared to the single-loaded drug 22 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I), and drug 3 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I + NAMPT inhibitor) showed an approximately 38% higher inhibition percentage compared to the single-loaded drug 22 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I). In the in vitro efficacy evaluation experiment of NCI-H292, at a drug concentration of 10 nM, the dual-loaded drug 2 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I + Gefitinib chloride) showed an approximately 10% higher inhibition percentage compared to the single-loaded drug 22 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I), and drug 3 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I + NAMPT inhibitor) showed an 18% higher inhibition percentage compared to the single-loaded drug 22 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I). The dual-antibody conjugate dual-drug combination effectively improves therapeutic efficacy and avoids the drug resistance problems caused by monotherapy.
[0248] Example 4: In vitro experiment of anti-Her2 dual-load ADC
[0249] The in vitro efficacy of Her2-targeting drugs 5, 6, and 7 on other Her2-targeting tumor cells, including human breast cancer cells SK-BR-3 (Her2-highly expressed), human gastric cancer cells NCI-N87 (Her2-highly expressed), human endometrial cancer cells HEC-1-A (Her2-highly expressed), and ovarian cancer cells SKOV-3 (Her2-highly expressed), was tested. Drugs 23-28, administered alone or in combination, served as controls. Cell lines were cultured in DMEM medium containing 10% placenta or 1640 medium containing 10% placenta, and seeded at 30,000 cells / well in 96-well plates. The cells were treated with the antibody-drug conjugate 24 hours after seeding. The test samples were serially diluted with basal medium and transferred to cell culture plates at 100 μL / well; incubated at 37°C, 5% CO2 for 70-74 hours. Dilute CCK-8 10 times with culture medium, remove the old culture medium from the 96-well plate, add 100 μL of diluted CCK-8 solution to each well, and develop the color at 37℃ and 5% CO2 for 2-4 hours. Use a microplate reader with a detection wavelength of 450 nm / 655 nm for reading.
[0250] The percentage of inhibition and the maximum percentage of inhibition were calculated. The results (Figure 5) show that the Her2-targeting drug of this invention has high cytotoxic efficacy against Her2-expressing cell lines.
[0251] The percentage of inhibition and the maximum percentage of inhibition were calculated. The results (Figure 5) show that the Her2-targeting drug of this invention has higher cytotoxic efficacy against Her2-expressing cell lines compared to single-loaded drugs and / or combinations of single-loaded drugs.
[0252] The percentage of inhibition was calculated. The results (Figure 5) show that the monoclonal antibody targeting Her2, conjugated with the dual-loaded drugs of this invention—drug 5 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I + Gemcitabine), drug 6 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I + Gefitinib chloride), and drug 7 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I + NAMPT inhibitor)—exhibited significant cytotoxicity in the Her2-expressing JIMT1 cell line. Simultaneously, the results (Figure 5) show that the Her2 monoclonal antibody conjugated with the dual-loaded drugs of this invention exhibits superior cytotoxic efficacy against Her2-expressing cell lines compared to the single-loaded drug 28 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I).
[0253] The results showed that the synergistic killing effect produced by the monoclonal antibody binding to two toxin molecules with different mechanisms of action (such as ixenocarbine + gemcitabine, ixenocarbine + gefitinib chloride, and ixenocarbine + NAMPT inhibitor) enabled higher inhibition percentages at the same concentration of dual-loaded drugs. In the in vitro pharmacodynamic evaluation experiment of JIMT1, at a drug concentration of 10 nM, the dual-loaded drug 5 (anti-topoisomerase I + gemcitabine) showed an approximately 40% higher inhibition percentage than the single-loaded drug 28 (anti-topoisomerase I), drug 6 (anti-topoisomerase I + gefitinib chloride) showed an approximately 11% higher inhibition percentage than the single-loaded drug 28 (anti-topoisomerase I), and drug 7 (anti-topoisomerase I + NAMPT inhibitor) showed an approximately 24% higher inhibition percentage than the single-loaded drug 28 (anti-topoisomerase I). Her2 monoclonal antibody combined with dual-drug combination therapy effectively improves treatment efficacy and avoids drug resistance problems caused by monotherapy.
[0254] Example 5: In vitro experiment of anti-EGFR dual-load ADC
[0255] The in vitro efficacy of EGFR-targeting drugs 13, 14, and 15 against other EGFR-targeting tumor cells, including human non-small cell lung cancer H1975 (EGFR-expressing), human breast cancer HCC1806 (EGFR-highly-expressing), and human orthotopic pancreatic adenocarcinoma BxPC-3 (EGFR-highly-expressing), was tested. Drugs 35-40, administered alone or in combination, served as controls. Four cell lines were cultured in DMEM medium containing 10% placental plasma or 1640 medium containing 10% placental plasma. Cells were seeded at 30,000 cells / well in 96-well plates and treated with the antibody-drug conjugate 24 hours after seeding. The test samples were serially diluted with basal medium and transferred to cell culture plates at 100 μL / well. Incubation was performed at 37°C, 5% CO2 for 70-74 hours. Dilute CCK-8 10-fold with culture medium, remove the old culture medium from the 96-well plate, add 100 μL of diluted CCK-8 solution to each well, and incubate at 37°C with 5% CO2 for 2-4 hours. Use a microplate reader with a detection wavelength of 450 nm / 655 nm for readings. Calculate the percentage of inhibition and the maximum percentage of inhibition.
[0256] The percentage of inhibition and the maximum percentage of inhibition were calculated. The results (Figure 6) show that the EGFR-targeting drug of this invention has high cytotoxic efficacy against EGFR-expressing cell lines.
[0257] The percentage of inhibition and the maximum percentage of inhibition were calculated. The results (Figure 6) show that the EGFR-targeting drug of this invention has higher cytotoxic efficacy against EGFR-expressing cell lines compared to single-loaded drugs and / or combinations of single-loaded drugs.
[0258] The percentage of inhibition was calculated. The results (Figure 6) showed that monoclonal antibodies targeting EGFR, conjugated with the dual-loaded drugs 13 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I + Gemcitabine) and 14 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I + Gefitinib chloride) of this invention, exhibited significant cytotoxicity in EGFR-expressing cell lines. In in vitro pharmacodynamic evaluation experiments on PC9 cells, the dual-loaded drug 13 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I + Gemcitabine) achieved the highest inhibition rate (96.5%) at approximately 10 nM, and the dual-loaded drug 14 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I + Gemcitabine) also achieved the highest inhibition rate (97.4%) at approximately 10 nM, while the single-loaded drug 40 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I) showed an inhibition rate of only about 50% at the same concentration. The dual-loaded drugs 13 and 14 showed significantly lower inhibition rates at low concentrations (approximately 10 nM). -1At approximately 1 nM, the drug showed activity and exhibited inhibitory effects on tumor cells, achieving a 50% inhibition rate. In contrast, the single-loaded drug 40 showed zero inhibition at this concentration, only achieving killing efficiency at approximately 10 nM. The dual-loaded drugs 13 and 14 had an effective dose approximately two orders of magnitude lower than the single-loaded drug 40, and an IC50 approximately one order of magnitude lower. The EGFR monoclonal antibody-drug combination still showed effective therapeutic efficacy at low doses, suggesting that even lower doses could be achieved in clinical applications, further optimizing treatment dosage and reducing off-target risks.
[0259] Example 6: In vivo experiment of EGFR / cMET dual antibody dual load ADC
[0260] The efficacy of a dual-load drug targeting EGFR*cMET was tested in mice: Human malignant melanoma cells A-375 or other cell lines expressing EGFR and cMET were selected, maintained in vitro, and routinely passaged twice a week. Cells in the exponential growth phase were harvested and counted for tumor inoculation. Female Ba1b / c nude mice, 6-8 weeks old and weighing approximately 18-22g, were subcutaneously inoculated with 0.2ml of PBS and Matrige1 (1:1) containing tumor cells (10x10⁻¹²). 6 Allow the tumor to grow. When the average visually estimated tumor volume reaches approximately 150-250 mm... 3 At that time, all animals were weighed and the volume of each tumor was measured. Then, all mice were randomly divided into groups and injected with equal doses of dual-loaded drugs, with one or both groups receiving drug 17-22 serving as controls. Body weight and tumor size were recorded every 3-4 days.
[0261] The results (Figure 7) showed that the dual-loaded drugs targeting EGFR*cMET of this invention, namely, drug 1 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I + Gemcitabine) and drug 2 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I + Gefitinib chloride), effectively inhibited tumor growth in an HCC827 tumor CDX model expressing EGFR and cMET. The final tumor volume was 34±7 mm3 in the dual-loaded drug group, 38±22 mm3 in the dual-loaded drug group, and 2075±894 mm3 in the Vehicle group. The inhibitory effect of the dual-drug combination remained stable throughout the treatment period.
[0262] The results (Figure 7) showed that the tumor suppression effects of the EGFR*cMET dual-loaded drugs 1 and 2 of this invention were superior to those of the combination of single-loaded drugs 18 and 19. Compared with the combined administration of two single-loaded ADC drugs (10 mg / kg), the dual-loaded drugs at the same dose (5 mg / kg) had better therapeutic effects. Furthermore, the mice in the dual-loaded drug treatment group maintained stable body weight, indicating that the drugs did not cause significant systemic toxicity at effective doses. This suggests that the dual-loaded drugs have a wider therapeutic window and better safety profile.
[0263] Example 7: In vivo experiment of anti-Her2 dual-load ADC
[0264] The efficacy of a dual-load drug targeting Her2 was tested in mice: Human gastric cancer cells NCI-N87 expressing Her2 or other Her2-expressing cell lines were selected and maintained in vitro and routinely passaged twice a week. Cells in the exponential growth phase were harvested and counted for tumor inoculation. Female Ba1b / c nude mice, 6-8 weeks old and weighing approximately 18-22g, were subcutaneously inoculated with tumor cells (10x10⁻¹) in 0.2 ml PBS and Matrige1 (1:1) in the right flank. 6 Allow the tumor to grow. When the average visually estimated tumor volume reaches approximately 150-250 mm... 3 At that time, all animals were weighed and the volume of each tumor was measured. Then, all mice were randomly divided into groups and injected with equal doses of the dual-load drug, with one or both groups receiving the drug (drug 23-28) serving as controls. Body weight and tumor size were recorded every 3-4 days.
[0265] The results showed that the Her2-targeting dual-load drug 5 (an inhibitor of topoisomerase I + Gemcitabine) of the present invention effectively inhibited tumor growth in the Her2-expressing Canpan-1 tumor CDX model and JIMT-1 tumor CDX model (Figures 8 and 9). In the Canpan-1 tumor CDX model: the average final tumor volume in the dual-load drug 5 group was 61 mm3, while that in the Vehicle group was 859 mm3; in the JIMT-1 tumor CDX model: the average final tumor volume in the dual-load drug 5 group was 3 mm3, with the tumor almost completely disappearing, while that in the Vehicle group was 1091 mm3. The inhibitory effect of the dual-drug combination remained stable throughout the treatment period, demonstrating a significant tumor-suppressing effect.
[0266] The results (Figures 8 and 9) showed that the Her2 dual-loaded drug groups 5 and 6 exhibited superior tumor suppression effects compared to the combination of single-loaded drugs 24 and 25. Compared to the combination of two single-loaded ADC drugs (at a dose of 10 mg / kg), the dual-loaded drug demonstrated better therapeutic efficacy at the same dose (5 mg / kg). Furthermore, the mice in the dual-loaded drug treatment group maintained stable body weight, indicating that the drugs did not cause significant systemic toxicity at effective doses. This finding suggests that the dual-loaded drug has a wider therapeutic window and higher safety profile.
[0267] Example 8: Synthesis of a novel HM-2031B
[0268] HM-2031B_1 (1.20 g, 6.49 mmol) was added to DCM (15 mL), followed by TEA (1.31 g, 12.9 mmol). The mixture was cooled to 0 °C, and HY-696_1 (1.20 g, 6.49 mmol) was added. The mixture was reacted at room temperature for 1 hour. The mixture was then cooled to 0 °C again, and HM-313_7F (791.8 mg, 6.49 mmol) was dissolved in DMF (3 mL) and added dropwise to the above solution. The mixture was reacted at room temperature for 1 hour. After low-temperature rotary evaporation, the mixture was purified by reverse phase (phase A: NH4OAc, phase B: CAN, gradient B: 65-95, 40 min). HM-2031B_3 (240 mg, 0.572 mmol) was added to THF (7.2 mL), and the mixture was cooled to -50 °C. NaBH4 (8.7 mg, 0.229 mmol) was added, and the mixture was reacted at -50 °C for 5 hours. The reaction solution was added dropwise to water at 0°C, and extracted with 50 mL of EA. The organic phases were combined and evaporated to dryness, then directly purified by reverse-phase chromatography (phase A: NH4OAc, phase B: CAN, gradient B: 65-95, 40 min). HM-2031B_4 (46 mg, 0.11 mmol) and phenyl p-nitrochloroformate (33 mg, 0.16 mmol) were dissolved in DCM (2 mL), and DIPEA (28 mg, 0.22 mmol) was added. The reaction was carried out at room temperature for 16 hours. After the reaction, the solution was purified by column chromatography (60% EA in PE). HM-2031B_5 (31 mg, 0.05 mmol) and HM-2031B_6 (31 mg, 0.05 mmol) were dissolved in DMF (1 mL), and DIPEA (6.8 mg, 0.05 mmol) and HOBT (7 mg, 0.05 mmol) were added. The reaction was carried out at room temperature for 1 hour. The final product HM-2031B was obtained by reverse-phase purification (ammonium acetate system) (50-80% 10mM ammonium acetate aqueous solution / ACN).
[0269] Example 9: Comparison Experiment of Different Types of Load Combinations
[0270] Following the steps in Examples 1.1 and 1.2, single-loaded antibody-drug conjugates targeting EGFR, namely Nimotuzumab-Mc-GGFG-Dxd (DAR8), Nimotuzumab-HM-2031B (DAR8), Nimotuzumab-Mc-Val-Cit-PAB-Gefitinib (DAR8), and Nimotuzumab-Mc-O-Si(di-iso)-O-Gemcitabine (DAR8), were prepared. Following the steps in Example 1, dual-loaded antibody-drug conjugates, Nimotuzumab-HM-2031B & MAL-di-EG-Val-Cit-PAB-MMAF (DAR4+DAR4), were prepared. The specific types of antibodies, -L1-D1, and -L2-D2 are shown in Table 6 below.
[0271] Table 6. Reagents and raw materials used in Example 12
[0272] The efficacy of the aforementioned EGFR-targeting drugs was tested in mice. Non-small cell lung cancer cells HC4006 were maintained in vitro and routinely passaged twice weekly. Cells in the exponential growth phase were harvested and counted for tumor inoculation. CB17 SCID mice, 6-8 weeks old and weighing approximately 18-22g, were subcutaneously inoculated with HC4006 tumor cells (10x10⁻¹) in 0.2ml PBS and Matrigel1 (1:1) in the right flank. 6 Tumor development was monitored. Body weight and tumor volume were recorded for all mice on day 15, with an average tumor volume of 176.43 mm. 3 All mice were randomly assigned to groups and administered the medication via tail vein injection at a dose of 5 mg / kg, as shown in Table 7 below. Body weight and tumor size were recorded every 3–4 days.
[0273] Table 7 Tail vein injection methods
[0274] The results showed that, within a 21-day treatment period, the combined use of Nimotuzumab-Mc-O-Si(di-iso)-O-Gemcitabine (DAR8) and Nimotuzumab-HM-2031B (DAR8), which have lower cytotoxicity, could achieve the same therapeutic effect as Nimotuzumab-Mc-GGFG-Dxd (DAR8), which has higher cytotoxicity.
[0275] The dual-loaded Nimotuzumab-HM-2031B & MAL-di-EG-Val-Cit-PAB-MMAF (DAR4+DAR4) prepared by sequential coupling method has a therapeutic effect comparable to Nimotuzumab-Mc-GGFG-Dxd (DAR8). However, the dual-loaded Nimotuzumab-HM-2031B & MAL-di-EG-Val-Cit-PAB-MMAF uses a combination of a topoisomerase I (TOP1) inhibitor and a tubulin inhibitor, which effectively avoids acquired resistance caused by single-mechanism drugs, thereby avoiding or significantly delaying cancer recurrence / disease progression.
[0276] The results showed that the dual-load drug formulations with different combinations of chemical drugs of the present invention could effectively inhibit tumor growth in the HC4006 CDX model. Furthermore, from the perspective of drug action mechanism and the pathogenesis of tumor occurrence, survival, and metastasis, the dual-load ADC with multiple targets and mechanisms of action has significant advantages in avoiding and alleviating drug resistance in patients during clinical treatment.
