AI Technical Summary
Existing camptothecin derivatives such as Dxd have high efflux rates when treating gastrointestinal tumors, leading to reduced efficacy. They also have poor sensitivity to killing gastrointestinal tumor cells, which may be related to the occurrence of interstitial lung disease, and there is a risk of toxicity.
A novel camptothecin derivative with a more stable lactone ring, low efflux rate, and better safety was developed for use as an effective load in antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). Water solubility and druggability were improved by introducing appropriate substituent groups.
It achieves highly efficient killing of gastrointestinal tumors, reduces efflux rate and toxicity risk, and improves the efficacy and safety of ADC drugs.

Abstract
Description
A camptothecin-type compound and its uses Technical Field
[0001] This disclosure relates to a novel camptothecin analogue, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the camptothecin, and their use in the preparation of pharmaceuticals. Background Technology
[0002] DNA topoisomerases are a class of enzymes found in the cell nucleus that catalyze the breaking and binding of DNA strands, thereby controlling the topological state of DNA. Topoisomerases participate in the regulation of supercoiled template structures. DNA topoisomerase I catalyzes changes in the topological isomerism of DNA replication by forming a brief single-strand cleavage-binding cycle. Camptothecin, a pentacyclic quinoline alkaloid originally isolated from the bark and stems of the Chinese camptotheca, is one of the important lead compounds in the development of anticancer drugs. Its structure is a planar pentacyclic system, including a quinoline ring AB, a pyrrole ring C, a pyridone ring D, and an α-hydroxylactone ring E, with the 20th chiral carbon in the S configuration serving as the active site of camptothecin. Camptothecin is a Topo I inhibitor; it forms a stable Topo I-DNA-CPT ternary complex by binding to the Topo I-DNA binary complex, inhibiting DNA rejoining, causing DNA damage, and ultimately leading to cell death. To address the drawbacks of camptothecin, such as poor solubility, stability, and high toxicity, camptothecin derivatives can increase water solubility and improve drug properties by introducing water-soluble groups or preparing prodrugs. Several camptothecin derivatives, such as topotecan and irinotecan, have already been approved for marketing and are used to treat solid tumors. Developed by Daiichi Sankyo, the irinotecan derivative Dxd is a highly effective Topo I inhibitor. As an effective payload for antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), it selectively kills tumor cells through antibody targeting. Compared to traditional chemotherapy drugs, ADCs can more precisely kill tumor cells while reducing toxicity to normal tissues. Several ADC drugs using Dxd as the payload have been approved for marketing or entered clinical trials, demonstrating excellent efficacy and manageable safety in solid tumors such as breast cancer and non-small cell lung cancer. However, Dxd is a substrate for the transporter P-gp and BCRP, making it easily effluxed by tumor cells, reducing its efficacy. Meanwhile, Dxd exhibits poor sensitivity in killing gastrointestinal tumor cells, which may be associated with the development of interstitial lung disease. Therefore, developing novel camptothecin derivatives that are sensitive to the gastrointestinal tract and have low efflux as effective payloads for ADCs is of great significance and has promising application prospects.

[0029] The terms “including,” “comprising,” “having,” “containing,” or “involving,” and their other variations herein, are inclusive or open-ended and do not exclude other unlisted elements or method steps.
[0030] As used herein, the term "alkyl" is defined as a linear or branched saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon. In some embodiments, the alkyl group has 1 to 12, for example, 1 to 6 carbon atoms. For example, as used herein, the term "Cw alkyl" refers to a linear or branched group (e.g., methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl, tert-butyl, n-pentyl, isopentyl, neopentyl, or n-hexyl) of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, optionally substituted with one or more (e.g., 1 to 3) suitable substituents such as halogens (in which case the group is referred to as "haloalkyl") (e.g., CH2F, CHF2, CF3, CCl3, C2F5, C2C15, CH2CF3, CH2Cl, or -CH2CH2CF3, etc.). The term "CM alkyl" refers to a linear or branched aliphatic hydrocarbon chain (e.g., methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl, or tert-butyl) of 1 to 4 carbon atoms.
[0031] As used herein, the term "alkenyl" refers to a linear or branched monovalent hydrocarbon group containing a double bond; for example, "CM alkenyl" is an alkenyl group having 2-6 carbon atoms.

[0041] If a substituent is described as “optionally substituted,” then the substituent may be (1) unsubstituted or (2) substituted. If the carbon of the substituent is described as being optionally substituted with one or more of the substituents in the list, then one or more hydrogens on the carbon (to the extent that any hydrogens are present) may be substituted individually and / or together with independently selected optional substituents. If the nitrogen of the substituent is described as being optionally substituted with one or more of the substituents in the list, then one or more hydrogens on the nitrogen (to the extent that any hydrogens are present) may each be substituted with independently selected optional substituents.
[0042] If a substituent is described as being “independently selected” from a group, then each substituent is selected independently of the others. Therefore, each substituent may be the same as or different from another (other) substituent.

Radioactive isotope tritium (i.e. 3 H) and carbon-14 (i.e. 14 C) It is particularly suitable for this purpose due to its ease of incorporation and detection. Using positron-emitting isotopes (e.g.) 11 C 18 F, 15 O and 13 N) substitution can be used in positron emission tomography (PET) studies to examine substrate receptor occupancy. Isotopically labeled compounds of the present invention can be prepared by methods similar to those described in the accompanying routes and / or examples and preparations, using a suitable isotopically labeled reagent instead of the previously used unlabeled reagent. Pharmaceutically acceptable solvates of the present invention include those in which the crystallization solvent can be isotopically substituted, for example, D. 2 O, acetone or DMSO-*.
[0046] The term "stereoisomer" refers to an isomer formed due to at least one asymmetric center. In compounds having one or more (e.g., one, two, three, or four) asymmetric centers, racemic mixtures, single enantiomers, diastereomer mixtures, and individual diastereomers can be produced. Specific individual molecules can also exist as geometric isomers (cis / trans). Similarly, the compounds of the present invention can exist as mixtures of two or more structurally different forms in rapid equilibrium (commonly referred to as tautomers).
[0047] Representative examples of tautomers include keto-enol tautomers, phenol-keto tautomers, nitroso-oxime tautomers, imine-enamine tautomers, etc. It should be understood that the scope of this application covers all such isomers or mixtures thereof in any proportion (e.g., 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%).
[0048] Solid lines may be used in this article. solid wedge Or virtual wedge The chemical bonds of the compounds of the present invention are depicted. Solid lines are used to depict bonds to asymmetric carbon atoms to indicate all possible stereoisomers (e.g., specific enantiomers, racemic mixtures, etc.) at that carbon atom. Solid or dashed wedges are used to depict bonds to asymmetric carbon atoms to indicate the presence of the indicated stereoisomers. When present in racemic mixtures, solid and dashed wedges are used to define relative stereochemistry, not absolute stereochemistry. Unless otherwise specified, the compounds of the present invention are intended to exist as stereoisomers (including cis and trans isomers, optical isomers (e.g., R and S enantiomers), diastereomers, geometric isomers, rotational isomers, conformational isomers, trans-blocking isomers, and mixtures thereof). The compounds of the present invention may exhibit more than one type of isomerism and may consist of mixtures thereof (e.g., racemic mixtures and diastereomer pairs).
[0049] This invention encompasses all possible crystalline forms or polymorphs of the compounds of this invention, which may be a single polymorph or a mixture of more than one polymorph in any proportion. It should also be understood that certain compounds of this invention may exist in a free form for therapeutic purposes, or, where appropriate, in their pharmaceutically acceptable derivative forms. In this invention, pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives include, but are not limited to, pharmaceutically acceptable salts, esters, solvates, N-oxides, metabolites, or prodrugs, which, upon administration to a patient in need, can directly or indirectly provide the compounds of this invention or their metabolites or residues. Therefore, when referring to "compounds of this invention" herein, it is also intended to cover the various derivative forms of the compounds described above.
[0050] Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of the present invention include their acid addition salts and base addition salts. Suitable acid addition salts are formed by acids that form pharmaceutically acceptable salts. Suitable base addition salts are formed by bases that form pharmaceutically acceptable salts. A review of suitable salts can be found in Stahl and Wermuth's "Handbook of Pharmaceutical Salts: Properties, Selection, and Use" (Wiley-VCH, 2002). Methods for preparing pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of the present invention are known to those skilled in the art.
[0051] As used herein, the term "ester" means an ester derived from the various general formula compounds of this application, including physiologically hydrolyzable esters (the compounds of the present invention that can be hydrolyzed under physiological conditions to release free acids or alcohols). The compounds of the present invention may themselves also be esters.
[0052] The compounds of the present invention can exist as solvates (preferably hydrates), wherein the compounds of the present invention contain a polar solvent, particularly, for example, water, methanol, or ethanol, as a structural element of the lattice of the compound. The amount of the polar solvent, particularly water, can be stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric.
[0053] Those skilled in the art will understand that not all nitrogen-containing heterocycles can form oxides because nitrogen requires available lone pairs of electrons to be oxidized. Those skilled in the art will identify nitrogen-containing heterocycles that can form oxides. Those skilled in the art will also recognize that tertiary amines can form N-oxides. Synthetic methods for preparing N-oxides of heterocycles and tertiary amines are well known to those skilled in the art, including the oxidation of heterocycles and tertiary amines with peroxyacids such as peracetic acid and m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (MCPBA), hydrogen peroxide, alkyl peroxides such as tert-butyl peroxide, sodium perborate, and dioxiranes such as dimethyldioxirane. These methods for preparing W-oxides have been extensively described and reviewed in the literature, see, for example: T.L. Gilchrist, Comprehensive Organic Synthesis, vol. 7, pp. 748-750; A.R. Katritzky and A.J. Boulton, Eds., Academic Press; and G.W. H. Heeseman and E.S. G. Wierstiuk, Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry, vol. 22, pp. 390-392, A.R. Katritzky and A.J. Boulton, Eds., Academic Press.
[0054] The scope of this invention also includes metabolites of the compounds of this invention, i.e., substances formed in the body when the compounds of this invention are administered. Such products can be generated, for example, by oxidation, reduction, hydrolysis, amidation, deamidation, esterification, enzymatic hydrolysis, etc., of the administered compound. Therefore, this invention includes metabolites of the compounds of this invention, including compounds obtained by methods that expose the compounds of this invention to mammals for a time sufficient to produce their metabolites.
[0055] This invention further includes, within its scope, prodrugs of the compounds of the invention, which are certain derivatives of the compounds of the invention that may themselves have little or no pharmacological activity, which, when administered to or onto the body, can be converted, for example, by hydrolysis and cleavage into the compounds of the invention having the desired activity. Typically, such prodrugs are functional group derivatives of the compounds that are readily converted in vivo into the compounds with the desired therapeutic activity. Further information regarding the use of prodrugs can be found in “Pro-drugs as Novel Delivery Systems,” Vol. 14, ACS Symposium Series (T. Higuchi and V. Stella). The prodrugs of the invention can be prepared, for example, by replacing suitable functional groups present in the compounds of the invention with certain portions known to those skilled in the art as “pro-moiety” (e.g., “Design of Prodmgs,” H. Bundgaard (Elsevier, 1985)).
[0056] This invention also covers compounds of the invention containing protecting groups. In any process of preparing the compounds of the invention, protection of sensitive or reactive groups on any relevant molecule may be necessary and / or desired, thereby forming a form of chemical protection for the compounds of the invention. This can be achieved by conventional protecting groups, for example, those described in T.W. Greene & P. G. W. M. Uts, *Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis*, John Wiley & Sons, 1991, which are incorporated herein by reference. Protecting groups can be removed at appropriate subsequent stages using methods known in the art.
