The full text of the aforementioned Chinese patent applications is incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field
[0002] This disclosure pertains to the field of pharmaceutical technology and relates to antibody-drug conjugates of NMT inhibitor bioactive compounds, NMT inhibitor bioactive compounds, drug-linked conjugates and their preparation methods, as well as their use in the prevention and / or treatment of diseases related to abnormal cell activity, including but not limited to their use in the prevention and / or treatment of tumor diseases. Background Technology
[0003] Chemotherapy using cytotoxic agents was once the standard treatment for cancer, but highly lethal cytotoxic molecules can damage normal cells, causing severe toxic side effects. Targeted antitumor drugs, possessing both targeting and antitumor activity, have become a hot topic in current cancer research; however, the selectivity of targeted drugs often leads to significant toxic side effects, thus limiting their therapeutic efficacy. Biological macromolecular drugs, such as antibodies or antibody fragments, while highly targeted, have limited or no therapeutic effect on solid tumors. Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), combining the targeting ability of antibodies with the activity of bioactive molecules, act as a biological missile, offering promising advantages in efficacy and safety. Antibodies guide ADCs to bind to target cells, where they are subsequently internalized. The small molecule drug is then released intracellularly through enzymatic decomposition by specific enzymes, treating the disease.
[0004] Various lipids and lipid metabolites bind to and modify proteins in eukaryotic cells; this is known as "protein lipidation." There are four main types of protein lipidation: myristoylation, palmitoylation, isopentenylation, and glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchoring. N-Myristoylation refers to the attachment of the 14-carbon fatty acid myristate ester to the N-terminal glycine of a protein via N-myristyltransferase (NMT). Myristoylation plays an important role in signal transduction, immune regulation, and tumorigenesis and development.
[0005] Currently, upregulated expression and enhanced activity of N-myristyltransferase (NMT) have been observed in various solid tumors. The role of NMT in tumorigenesis was first observed in colorectal cancer, where its expression and activity are directly related to disease progression. Furthermore, significantly elevated NMT mRNA expression has been observed in lung cancer patients; and in breast epithelial cells, cell proliferation is correlated with NMT activity.
[0006] In March 2024, Myricx Pharma published an ADC patent (WO2024052684A1) using a small molecule NMT inhibitor as the payload. Its ADC compound showed good in vitro and in vivo efficacy. According to the published toxicological data, the tolerated dose in cynomolgus monkeys was 20 mpk, and the safety window needs to be further improved.
[0007] NMT small molecule inhibitors, as a core component of ADC efficacy, are typically closely related to both pharmacodynamics and toxicity. Therefore, to further increase the safety window and reduce their half-life in vivo, thereby minimizing toxicity caused by payload system exposure and significantly improving the therapeutic window and efficacy of ADC drugs, searching for a novel NMT inhibitor as an ADC payload is a highly promising research direction. Furthermore, as a compound with a novel mechanism, NMT inhibitors, when applied to ADCs, hold the potential to overcome drug resistance to existing drugs and provide better treatment options for cancer patients. Therefore, this disclosure has high clinical application value. Summary of the Invention

[0026] Invention Details
[0027] definition
[0028] In this disclosure, unless otherwise stated, the scientific and technical terms used have the meanings commonly understood by those skilled in the art. Furthermore, the cell culture, molecular genetics, nucleic acid chemistry, and immunology laboratory procedures used in this disclosure are all standard procedures widely used in their respective fields. To better understand this disclosure, definitions and explanations of relevant terms are provided below.
[0029] As used in this disclosure, examples of the term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" are organic acid adduct salts formed from organic acids that form pharmaceutically acceptable anions, including but not limited to formate, acetate, propionate, benzoate, maleate, fumarate, succinate, tartrate, citrate, ascorbate, α-ketoglutarate, α-glycerophosphate, alkyl sulfonates, or aryl sulfonates; preferably, the alkyl sulfonate is a methanesulfonate or ethyl sulfonate; and the aryl sulfonate is a benzenesulfonate or p-toluenesulfonate. Suitable inorganic salts may also be formed, including but not limited to hydrochlorides, hydrobromides, hydroiodates, nitrates, bicarbonates and carbonates, sulfates, or phosphates.
[0030] Pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be obtained using standard procedures well known in the art, for example, by reacting an adequate amount of a basic compound with a suitable acid that provides a pharmaceutically acceptable anion.
[0031] As used in this disclosure, 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 may also exist as geometric isomers (cis / trans). Similarly, the compounds of this disclosure can exist as mixtures of two or more structurally different forms in rapid equilibrium (commonly referred to as tautomers). Representative examples of tautomers include keto-enol tautomers, phenol-keto tautomers, nitroso-oxime tautomers, imine-enamine tautomers, etc. It is to be understood that the scope of this disclosure covers all such isomers or mixtures thereof in any proportion (e.g., 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%).
[0032] In this disclosure, solid lines (—), solid wedges, or dashed wedges may be used to depict the carbon-carbon bonds of the compounds of this disclosure. The use of solid lines to depict bonds to asymmetric carbon atoms indicates that all possible stereoisomers (e.g., specific enantiomers, racemic mixtures, etc.) are included at that carbon atom. The use of solid or dashed wedges to depict bonds to asymmetric carbon atoms indicates 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 this disclosure 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-isomers, and mixtures thereof). The compounds of this disclosure may exhibit more than one type of isomerism and consist of mixtures thereof (e.g., racemic mixtures and diastereomer pairs).
[0033] In this disclosure, This indicates the connection point of the connected part.
[0034] The compounds disclosed herein may exist as solvates (preferably hydrates), wherein the compounds contain a polar solvent, particularly, for example, water, methanol, or ethanol, as a structural element of the compound's crystal lattice. The amount of the polar solvent, particularly water, may be stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric.
[0035] In this disclosure, pharmaceutical excipients refer to excipients and additives used in the production of pharmaceuticals and the formulation of prescriptions. They are substances, other than the active ingredient, that have undergone reasonable safety assessments and are included in the pharmaceutical preparation. Besides acting as a formifier, carrier, and improving stability, pharmaceutical excipients also have important functions such as solubilization, co-solubilization, and sustained-release. They are important components that may affect the quality, safety, and efficacy of pharmaceuticals. Based on their origin, they can be classified into natural substances, semi-synthetic substances, and fully synthetic substances. Based on their function and use, pharmaceutical excipients can be classified as follows: solvents, propellants, solubilizers, cosolvents, emulsifiers, colorants, binders, disintegrants, fillers, lubricants, wetting agents, osmotic pressure regulators, stabilizers, flow aids, flavoring agents, preservatives, suspending agents, coating materials, fragrances, anti-adhesion agents, antioxidants, chelating agents, penetration enhancers, pH adjusters, buffers, plasticizers, surfactants, foaming agents, defoamers, thickeners, inclusion agents, humectants, absorbents, diluents, flocculants and anti-flocculation agents, filter aids, release inhibitors, etc. Based on their route of administration, they can be classified as oral, injection, mucosal, transdermal or local, nasal or oral inhalation, and ocular administration, etc. The same pharmaceutical excipient can be used in pharmaceutical preparations with different routes of administration and has different functions and uses.
[0036] The pharmaceutical composition can be formulated into various suitable dosage forms depending on the route of administration. Examples include tablets, capsules, granules, oral solutions, oral suspensions, oral emulsions, powders, tinctures, syrups, injections, suppositories, ointments, creams, pastes, ophthalmic preparations, pills, implants, aerosols, powder inhalers, and sprays. The pharmaceutical composition or suitable dosage form may contain 0.01 mg to 1000 mg of the compound disclosed herein or its pharmaceutically acceptable salts or conjugates, preferably 0.1 mg to 800 mg, preferably 0.5-500 mg, more preferably 0.5-350 mg, and particularly preferably 1-250 mg.
[0037] The pharmaceutical composition can be administered in injectable form, including injection solutions, sterile powders for injection, and concentrated solutions for injection. Suitable carriers and solvents include water, Ringer's solution, and isotonic sodium chloride solution. Additionally, sterile non-volatile oils, such as monoglycerides or diglycerides, can also be used as solvents or suspension media. The pharmaceutical composition can also be administered via intravenous infusion.
[0038] As used in this disclosure, the term "treatment" generally refers to achieving the desired pharmacological and / or physiological effect. This effect may be preventative based on the complete or partial prevention of the disease or its symptoms; and / or therapeutic based on the partial or complete stabilization or cure of the disease and / or side effects resulting from the disease. As used in this disclosure, "treatment" covers any treatment of a patient's disease, including: (a) prevention of disease or symptoms occurring in a patient who is susceptible to the disease or its symptoms but has not yet been diagnosed with the disease; (b) suppression of the symptoms of the disease, i.e., prevention of its progression; or (c) relief of the symptoms of the disease, i.e., causing the disease or its symptoms to regress.
[0039] In this disclosure, the term "individual" includes humans or non-human animals. Exemplary human individuals include human individuals suffering from a disease (such as the disease described in this disclosure) (referred to as patients) or normal individuals. The term "non-human animal" in this disclosure includes all vertebrates, such as non-mammals (e.g., birds, amphibians, reptiles) and mammals, such as non-human primates, livestock, and / or domesticated animals (e.g., sheep, dogs, cats, cows, pigs, etc.).
[0040] In this disclosure, the term "effective dose" refers to the amount of an antibody-drug conjugate, drug-linked conjugate, compound, or composition that, when administered, will alleviate one or more symptoms of the treated condition to a certain extent.
[0041] In this disclosure, the terms "antibody-drug conjugate" and "ADC" refer to substances obtained by linking a bioactive compound fragment (drug molecule) to an antibody or its antigen-binding fragment. In some embodiments of this disclosure, the bioactive compound fragment and the target portion are linked via a linker. The linker is capable of cleaving under specific conditions (e.g., intracellular low pH) or specific actions (e.g., lysosomal proteases), thereby separating the bioactive compound fragment from the target portion or the antibody or its antigen-binding fragment. In some embodiments of this disclosure, the linker comprises cleavable or cleavable units, such as peptides or disulfide bonds. In some embodiments of this disclosure, the bioactive compound fragment and the target portion or the antibody or its antigen-binding fragment are directly linked by a covalent bond, which is capable of cleaving under specific conditions or actions, thereby separating the bioactive compound fragment from the antibody or its antigen-binding fragment.
[0042] In this disclosure, the terms "bioactive substance", "bioactive compound", and "drug" refer to substances that inhibit or prevent cell function and / or cause cell death or damage.
[0043] In this disclosure, regarding "position 1 of L1 is connected to Tb via an S atom," those skilled in the art will understand that position 1 of L1 is connected to the thiol group inherent in Tb (such as an antibody) after the disulfide bond is opened (e.g., by reducing the disulfide bond with the reducing agent TCEP to generate a thiol group -SH). In other words, the -S- between L1 and Tb is not an additional external sulfur atom. For example, the -S- is not an additional external sulfur atom, but rather the thiol group inherent in Tb itself after the disulfide bond is opened, and is connected to L1, for example... -S- is formed by concatenating the 1st bit.
[0044] In this disclosure, the terms "linker" or "linker" refer to a segment that links a bioactive compound fragment (drug molecule) to an antibody portion.
[0045] In this disclosure, the term "natural amino acid residue" refers to Gly, Ala, Ser, Thr, Val, Leu, Ile, Phe, Tyr, Trp, His, Glu, Asp, Gln, Asn, Cys, Met, Lys, Arg, and Pro. Non-natural amino acids are not specifically limited, but examples include β-amino acids, γ-amino acids, D-type amino acids, N-substituted amino acids, α,α-disubstituted amino acids, and amino acids with side chains different from natural amino acids.
[0046] In this disclosure, the term "...bioactive compound fragment" refers to a portion (fragment or group) of an antibody-drug conjugate (or antibody-drug conjugate, ADC) known in the art, which, after cleavage / degradation / enzymatic digestion of the linker in tumor tissues or within tumor cells, can form a biologically active drug (e.g., a small molecule cytotoxic drug, said drug including a group after the loss of an atom or group of atoms) or a derivative thereof (e.g., its precursor). To avoid ambiguity, "drug" does not only refer to "medicines" that have been approved by pharmaceutical regulatory authorities, but also includes any compound with potential therapeutic biological activity in clinical practice, or in research and development and academic studies.
[0047] In this disclosure, the term "antibody" is used in its broadest sense to include intact monoclonal antibodies, polyclonal antibodies, and multispecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies) formed from at least two intact antibodies, provided they possess the desired biological activity. In this disclosure, "antibody" and "immunoglobulin" are used interchangeably.
[0048] In this disclosure, the term "monoclonal antibody" refers to an antibody derived from a substantially homogeneous group of antibodies, meaning that the antibodies constituting the cluster are identical except for a small number of possible naturally occurring mutations. Monoclonal antibodies possess high specificity against a single determinant (epitope) of an antigen, while polyclonal antibodies, in contrast, comprise different antibodies targeting different determinants (epitopes). In addition to specificity, monoclonal antibodies have the advantage of being synthesized without contamination from other antibodies. The modifier "monoclonal" here indicates that the antibody is characterized by originating from a substantially homogeneous group of antibodies, and should not be construed as requiring special methods for preparation.
[0049] In some embodiments of this disclosure, monoclonal antibodies further include chimeric antibodies, i.e., a portion of the heavy chain and / or light chain is identical or homologous to a certain type, class, or subclass of antibody, while the remainder is identical or homologous to another type, class, or subclass of antibody, provided they possess the desired biological activity. Chimeric antibodies that can be used in this disclosure include primatized antibodies, which comprise a variable region antigen-binding sequence from a non-human primate (e.g., ancient monkey, chimpanzee, etc.) and a human constant region sequence.
[0050] The term "antibody fragment" refers to a portion of an antibody, preferably an antigen-binding region or variable region. Examples of antibody fragments include Fab, Fab′, F(ab′)2, Fd, Fv, dAb, and complementarity-determining region fragments, diabody, linear antibody, and single-chain antibody molecules.
[0051] The term "bispecific antibody," also known as "bifunctional antibody-drug conjugate," refers to a conjugate formed by a first antibody (fragment) and a second antibody (fragment) through a conjugate arm. This conjugate retains the activity of each antibody and thus has both bifunctionality and bispecificity.
[0052] The term "multispecific antibody" includes, for example, trispecific antibodies and tetraspecific antibodies. The former is an antibody that has the binding specificity of three different antigens, while the latter is an antibody that has the binding specificity of four different antigens.
[0053] The term "intact antibody" refers to an antibody that contains an antigen-binding variable region and a light chain constant region (CL), and heavy chain constant regions (CH1, CH2, and CH3). The constant regions can be natural sequences (e.g., human natural constant region sequences) or amino acid sequence variants thereof. Intact antibodies are preferably intact antibodies with one or more effector functions.
[0054] The term "probody" is a modified antibody, including an antibody or antibody fragment that is specifically designed to bind to its target and can be coupled with a masking group, wherein the masking group is defined as having a cleavage constant for the binding ability of the antibody or antibody fragment to its target that is at least 100 times, 1000 times, or 10000 times greater than the cleavage constant for the binding ability of an antibody or antibody fragment without a coupled masking group to its target.
[0055] In this disclosure, the “humanized” form of a nonhuman (e.g., mouse) antibody refers to a chimeric antibody containing a minimal amount of nonhuman immunoglobulin sequence. Most humanized antibodies are donor antibodies (e.g., mouse, rat, rabbit, or nonhuman primate) hypervariable region residues of human recipient immunoglobulins that have been replaced with nonhuman (e.g., mouse, rat, rabbit, or nonhuman primate) hypervariable region residues having the desired specificity, affinity, and function. In some embodiments, framework region (FR) residues of human immunoglobulins are also replaced with nonhuman residues. Furthermore, humanized antibodies may also contain residues not present in the recipient or donor antibody. These modifications are intended to further optimize antibody performance. Humanized antibodies generally contain at least one, typically two, variable regions, where all or almost all hypervariable loops correspond to those of the nonhuman immunoglobulin, while the FR is entirely or almost entirely a sequence of human immunoglobulin. Humanized antibodies may also contain at least a portion of the immunoglobulin constant region (Fc, typically human immunoglobulin Fc).
[0056] Intact antibodies can be classified into different "classes" based on the amino acid sequence of their heavy chain constant regions. The five main classes are IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM, some of which can be further divided into different "subclasses" (isotypes), such as IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA1, and IgA2. The heavy chain constant regions of different antibody classes are referred to as α, β, ε, γ, and μ, respectively. The subunit structures and three-dimensional conformations of different immunoglobulin classes are well known in the art.
[0057] In this disclosure, although in most cases the amino acid substitutions in the antibody are L-amino acids, this is not the only possibility. In some embodiments, the antibody peptide chain may include one or more D-amino acids. Peptides containing D-amino acids are more stable and less prone to degradation in the oral cavity, intestines, or plasma than peptides containing only L-amino acids.
[0058] The monoclonal antibodies used in this disclosure can be produced by many methods. For example, the monoclonal antibodies used in this disclosure can be obtained by hybridoma methods using cells from many species, including mice, hamsters, rats, and humans, or by recombinant DNA technology (see, for example, US 4,816,567), or isolated from a phage antibody library.
[0059] In this disclosure, unless otherwise expressly indicated, the descriptive phrases “each…independently selected from / as” and “…each independently selected from / as” used throughout this disclosure are interchangeable and should be interpreted broadly. They can mean either that the specific options expressed by the same or different symbols in different groups do not affect each other, or that the specific options expressed by the same or different symbols in the same group do not affect each other.
[0060] In various parts of this specification, the substituents of the disclosed compounds are disclosed according to the type or range of groups. In particular, this disclosure includes every independent secondary combination of the respective members of these group types and ranges. For example, the term "C1-6 alkyl / C..." 1-6 "Alkyl" specifically refers to independently disclosed methyl, ethyl, C3 alkyl, C4 alkyl, C5 alkyl, and C6 alkyl.
[0061] In this disclosure, the term "direct bond" refers to the absence of a substituent, in which the two ends of the substituent are directly bonded together.

[0089] Those skilled in the art will understand that the conjugated double bonds in aromatic rings do not exist like isolated double bonds, but rather manifest as delocalized large π bonds or similar forms. In this disclosure, the Kekulé structure is used to simplify the writing of aromatic compounds.

[1190] 2. Experimental Design
[1191] 2.1. Cell Treatment
[1192] The culture conditions for BT-474x cells (ATCC-HTB-20) were as follows: ATCC Hybri-Care Medium + 10% FBS, incubated at 37°C in a 5% CO2 incubator. Cells were passaged twice a week using trypsin containing EDTA. After washing twice with PBS, the cells were centrifuged and resuspended in pre-chilled PBS. Cells were counted using a cell counter, and the cell suspension was adjusted to an appropriate concentration before seeding.
[1193] 2.2. Tumor cell transplantation
[1194] BALB / c nude mice were acclimatized to the laboratory environment for 3-5 days. Three days before cell inoculation, 0.36 mg estrogen extended-release tablets were subcutaneously injected into the left posterior back of each mouse. One week after estrogen tablet injection, assisted urination was initiated three times per week; if necessary, assisted urination was initiated daily. 0.2 mL (10 x 10) 6 BT-474x cells were subcutaneously inoculated into the right back near the upper limb of each mouse using PBS plus matrigel (1:1). The average tumor volume reached approximately 150-200 mm. 3 Dosing will begin in groups at that time.
[1195] 2.3. Animal drug administration and detection
[1196] The tumor-bearing nude mice enrolled in the group were administered medication according to the following regimen:
[1197] Table 38. Dosing Regimen
[1198] 2.4. Tumor volume and body weight measurement
[1199] The day of the first dose is recorded as day 0. A total of three doses are administered, and tumor diameter and body weight are measured periodically. Tumor volume, relative tumor proliferation rate, and relative tumor inhibition rate are calculated, and tumor growth curves are plotted. The calculation formulas are as follows:
[1200] The formula for calculating tumor volume (V) is: V = 1 / 2 × L_length × L_short 2, where L_length and L_short represent the long diameter and short diameter of the tumor, respectively.
[1201] Relative tumor growth inhibition rate (TGI) (%) = [(1 - (average tumor volume of the treatment group on a certain day - average tumor volume of the treatment group when the treatment group was divided into subgroups)) / (average tumor volume of the solvent control group on a certain day - average tumor volume of the solvent control group when the treatment group was divided into subgroups)] × 100%.
[1202] Relative tumor proliferation rate (T / C%): The calculation formula is as follows: T / C% = TRTV / CRTV × 100% (TRTV: RTV of the treatment group; CRTV: RTV of the solvent control group). RTV, relative tumor volume, is calculated as RTV = Vt / V0, where V0 is the average tumor volume measured at the time of drug administration (i.e., D0), and Vt is the average tumor volume at a certain measurement. TRTV and CRTV are based on data from the same day.
