RAPAMYCIN DERIVATIVES AND COMPOSITIONS AND USES THEREOFCROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 698,718, filed September 25, 2024, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirely for all purposes.DESCRIPTION OF THE TEXT FILE SUBMITTED ELECTRONICALLY
[0002] The contents of the electronic sequence listing submitted electronically herewith are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety: A computer readable format copy of the Sequence Listing (filename: TRAI_007_03WO_SeqList_ST26.xml; Size: 427,207 bytes; and Date of Creation: September 24, 2024).BACKGROUND
[0003] Current treatments for patients who suffer from diseases characterized by excessive inflammation, such as autoinflammation and autoimmune disorders, cardiovascular disease and allograft rejection are inadequate. For example, transplantation requires suppression of the immune system to prevent organ rejection. Patients undergoing organ transplantation usually receive an immunosuppressive drug mixture, such as corticosteroids, tacrolimus, cyclosporine and sirolimus (rapamycin). Rapamycin is one of the most widely used immunosuppressive drugs in transplantation. This drug blocks T and B lymphocyte activation via mTOR inhibition and efficiently inhibits T cell proliferation. However, use of this drug is associated with severe side effects, including increased infection susceptibility. Due to the detrimental effects of life-long continuous immunosuppression a pressing need exists to reduce toxicity and improve long-term allograft survival.
[0004] Despite efforts to use currently available immunosuppressive agents in less toxic ways, no alternative regimen has seriously challenged these drugs’ almost universal use. There is, consequently, an ongoing need to reduce toxicity derived from chronic immunosuppressive. Historically, transplant immunologists have attempted to develop novel tolerogenic protocols bytargeting adaptive immune response mechanisms. Such work has been based on the observation that T cells are both necessary and sufficient to induce graft rejection. Accordingly, several therapeutic agents have been developed against signal 1 (T cell receptor / CD3 complex), signal 2 (co-stimulatory receptors), and signal 3 (cytokine production), which are required to successfully activate the effector lymphocytes that mediate allograft rejection. While these methodologies have produced promising results, long-term graft survival rates are suboptimal which underlines the need for alternative tolerance-inducing approaches.
[0005] There is a need for novel therapeutics for the treatment of diseases characterized by excessive inflammation, such as autoimmune disorders, cardiovascular disease and allograft rejection.SUMMARY

In addition to the adjuvants, excipients and diluents known to one skilled in the art, the carrier includes nanoparticles of organic and inorganic nature.
[0057] For example, in embodiments the present disclosure provides nanoparticles (e.g.,HDL-denved nanoparticles) as delivery vehicles for an active agent (e.g., a compound of Formula(I), (II), (III), (IV), (V), or (VI) or Table 1). In embodiments, the agent is encapsulated within theThe association of the agent and the nanoparticle carrier may be
[0058] The terms “pharmaceutical combination,” “therapeutic combination” or“combination” as used herein, refers to a single dosage form comprising at least two therapeutically active agents, or separate dosage forms comprising at least two therapeutically active agents together or separately for use in combination therapy. Administration of a combination therapy includes: administration in the same or different composition(s) and / or combinations, either sequentially, simultaneously, or continuously, through the same or different routes. For example, one therapeutically active agent may be formulated into one dosage form and the other therapeutically active agent may be formulated into a single or different dosage forms. For example, one therapeutically active agent may be formulated into a solid oral dosage form whereas the second therapeutically active agent may be formulated into a solution dosage form for parenteral administration. In embodiments, the combination therapy optionally includes one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or excipients, non-pharmaceutically active compounds, and / or inert substances.
[0059] The terms “treat”, "treating" or "treatment" refers to administering a composition disclosed herein and to reduce symptoms of, and / or pathology of, a disease or condition. A candidate compound described herein may be in a therapeutically effective amount in a formulation or medicament, which is an amount leads to a biological effect, such as reducing or eliminating symptoms of a disease or condition. In other aspects, the compositions may be used in a prophylactic manner to prevent a disease or condition arising, or from re-occurring. Transplantation provides a useful illustration. Subjects who have transplanted cells or organs may receive the disclosed compositions to control innate immune responses, such as inflammation. Subjects who plan to receive transplanted cells or organs may be administered the compositions disclosed herein prior to transplant and may also continue after transplant. After-transplant administration may promote a reduced inflammatory environment and greater tolerance to the implant. Without being bound by theory, it is thought that the compositions disclosed herein reduce inflammatory responses regulated by myeloid cells and their progenitors. In particular, it is thought that the nanoparticles improve delivery of compounds to the bone marrow and that such delivery promotes reduced inflammation driven by cells of the innate immune system. Notably, targeting the cells and progenitors in the bone marrow trains the immune system to have the desired effects, meaning that the immune cells that depart the bone marrow' and enter circulation retain the desired activity levels.
[0060] The term “patient” or “subject” as used herein, includes all mammals. The methods described herein may be useful for both human therapy and veterinary applications. In embodiments, the subject is a human. The subject may be suffering from inflammation. The inflammation may be acute or chronic. The subject may be suffering from autoinflammation, which involves inflammation involving aspects of the innate immune system.
[0061] As used herein, “therapeutically effective amount” means the amount of a compound or a therapeutically active agent that, when administered to a subject for treating or preventing a disease or other undesirable medical condition, is sufficient to have a beneficial effect with respect to that disease or condition. The therapeutically effective amount will vary depending on the type of the selected compound or a therapeutically active agent, the disease or condition and its severity, and the age, weight, etc. of the patient to be treated.
[0062] By “optional” or “optionally” it is meant that the subsequently described event or circumstance may or may not occur, and that the description includes instances where the event or circumstance occurs and instances in which is does not.

[0081] The compounds disclosed herein may exist as tautomers and both tautomeric forms are intended to be encompassed by the scope of the present disclosure, even though only one tautomeric structure is depicted.
[0082] The term "triglyceride" as used herein means an ester derived from glycerol and three fatty acids. The fatty acids may be the same or different. The notation used in this specification to describe a trigly ceride is the same as that used below to describe a fatty acid. Fattyacids can attach to the glycerol molecule in any order, e.g., any fatty acid can react with any of the hydroxyl groups of the glycerol molecule for forming an ester linkage. For example. In a nonlimiting example, a triglyceride can comprise glycerol with any combination of the following fatty acids: C18:l, C14: l, C16: 1, polyunsaturated, and saturated. A triglyceride of C18:l fatty acid simply means that the fatty acid components of the triglyceride are derived from or based upon a C18:l fatty acid. That is, a C18 / 1 triglyceride is an ester of glycerol and three fatty acids of 18 carbon atoms each with each fatty acid having one double bond. Similarly, a Cl 4: 1 triglyceride is an ester of glycerol and three fatty acids of 14 carbon atoms each with each fatty' acid having one double bond.

Triglycerides of Cl 8: 1 fatty acids in combination with C14:l and / or C16: l fatty acids means that: (a) a C18:l triglyceride is mixed with a Cl 4: 1 triglyceride or a C16: 1 triglyceride or both; or (b) at least one of the fatty acid components of the triglyceride is derived from or based upon a C l 8:1 fatty acid, while the other two are derived from or based upon C14: 1 fatiy acid and / or Cl 6: 1 fatty acid.
[0083] The term "fatty acid" and like terms mean a carboxylic acid with a long aliphatic tail that is either saturated or unsaturated. The term “long aliphatic tail” and “faty acid chain” are used interchangeably herein. As used herein, the fatty acid chain length includes from C4 to C30(e.g., C6 to C30), saturated or unsaturated, cis or trans, Zusammen (Z) or entgegen (E), unsubstituted or substituted with CI -10 side chains.
[0084] Unsaturated fatty acids have one or more double bonds between carbon atoms. Saturated fatty acids do not contain any double bonds. In embodiments, a fatty acid may be described herein by the capital letter "C" for carbon atom, followed by a number describing the number of carbon atoms in the fatty acid, followed by a colon and another number for the number of double bonds in the fatty acid. For example, Cl 6: 1 denotes a fatty acid of 16 carbon atoms with one double bond, e.g., palmitoleic acid. The number after the colon in this notation neither designates the placement of the double bond(s) in the fatty acid nor whether the hydrogen atoms bonded to the carbon atoms of the double bond are cis to one another. Other examples of this notation include Cl 8:0 (stearic acid), Cl 8:1 (oleic acid), Cl 8:2 (linoleic acid). Cl 8:3 (a-linolenic acid) and C20:4 (arachidonic acid).
[0085] The term "sterols" as used herein refers to animal or plant steroids which contain at least one hydroxyl group. In embodiments, the sterols of the present disclosure have a single hydroxyl group at the C3-position.

[0087] The term "phospholipid" refers to an amphiphilic compound comprised of a glycerol molecule bound to two fatty acids “tails” and a phosphate “head” group. The phosphate group may be further bound to hydrogen, choline, serine, ethanolamine, or inositol, thus, diversifying into phosphatidic acid, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylinositol phospholipids, respectively.
[0088] The term "lysophospho lipid," as used herein, refers to a derivative of a phospholipid (e.g., as defined above) in which one of the acyl fatty acid tails is missing and, thus, lysophospholipids have a free alcohol in either the sri-l or sn-2 position.

In embodiments, the HDL- derived nanoparticle comprises from about 12 mol% to about 25 mol% a compound of the present disclosure (e.g., a compound of Formula (I), (I-A), (I-B), (I-B-l), (I-B-2), (I-C), (I-C-A), (I-C-B), (11-2), (II-A), (II-B), (II-C), (II-D), (II-E), (II-F), (II-G), (II-H), ( II 1-2 ), (III-A), (III-B), (III-C), (IV- 2), (IV-A), (V-2), (V-A), (VI-2), (VI-A), or Table 2).
[0303] Stability of the HDL-derived nanoparticle can be assessed by performing DLS measurements. In embodiments, the HDL-derived nanoparticle is stable for at least about 1 week, or at least about 2 weeks, or at least about 5 weeks e.g., by DLS.
[0304] In embodiments, the nanobiologic composition inhibits aspects of the innate immune response in a subject in need thereof. In embodiments, the response is inhibited for at least about 7 to about 30 days. In embodiments, the response is inhibited for at least 30 to 100 days. In embodiments, the response is inhibited for more than 100 days and up to 3 years. In embodiments.the nanobiologic composition is administered once and wherein the response is inhibited for at least 30 days. In embodiments, the nanobiologic composition is administered at least once per day in each day of a multiple-dosing regimen, and wherein the response is inhibited for at least 30 days. In embodiments, the subject has a stimulated innate immune response, prior to administration, due to an existing disease or disorder, or other medical conditions, such as a transplant. Such stimulated immune responses are deemed hyper-responsive relative to a desired level of immune response and the compositions disclosed herein have useful effects in reducing the hyper-responsive condition, restoring a desired level of immune response. Typically, the elevated response has an inflammation component.
[0305] Production methods can prepare uniform size HDL-derived nanoparticles, or a non-uniform sized mixture of HDL-derived nanoparticles, either by not filtering, or by preparing a range of different sized HDL-derived nanoparticles and re-combining them in a post-production step. The larger the size of the HDL-derived nanoparticles, the more drug can be incorporated. However, larger sizes e.g. >120 nm, can limit, prevent or slow diffusion of the HDL-derived nanoparticles into the tissues of the patient being treated. Smaller HDL-derived nanoparticles do not hold as much drug per particle, but are able to access the bone marrow, blood, or spleen, or other localized tissue or cells affected by trained immunity, e.g. myeloid cells, myeloid progenitor cells, and hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow, blood and / or spleen, and so forth (biodistribution). Using a non-uniform mixture of nanoparticles sizes in a single administration or regimen can produce an immediate reduction in activity of cells that regulate the innate immune system, and simultaneously produce a durable, long-term reduction in innate immune activity (e.g. dampening of inflammation) that can last days, weeks, months, and years, wherein the nanoparticle has reversed, modified, or reregulated pathways of one or mnore hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) types, the common myeloid progenitors (CMP), or the myeloid cells such as monocytes, macrophages and other short-lived circulating cells.
[0306] In embodiments, the maximum loading capacity of the HDL-derived nanoparticle can be determined dividing the volume of the interior of the HDL -derived nanoparticle by the volume of a drug-load spheroid.
[0307] Particle: assume a lOOnm spherical particle having 2.2 nm-3.0 nm phospholipid wall, yielding a 94 nm diameter interior with volume (L) @ 4 / 3n(r)3.

[0309] Maximum Loading Capacity (calc): -487k 3.5 nm spheroids within a lOOnm particle.
[0310] When employed as pharmaceuticals, the compounds and HDL-derived nanoparticles of the present disclosure can be administered in the form of a pharmaceutical composition. Such compositions can be prepared in a manner well known in the pharmaceutical art and comprise at least one active compound. In embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition is a nanobiologic composition of the present disclosure, comprising a nanoparticle and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
[0311] Generally, the compounds of this invention are administered in a pharmaceutically effective amount. The amount of the compound administered will typically be determined by a physician, in the light of the relevant circumstances, including the condition to be treated, the chosen route of administration, the actual compound -administered, the age, weight, and response of the individual patient, the severity of the patient's symptoms, and the like.
[0312] The pharmaceutical compositions of this invention can be administered by a variety of routes including oral, rectal, intraocular, transdermal, subcutaneous, intravenous, intramuscular, intraperitoneal, intradermal, directly into cerebrospinal fluid, intratracheal, and intranasal. Depending on the intended route of deliver}', the compounds of this invention are preferably formulated as either injectable or oral compositions or as salves, as lotions or as patches all for transdermal administration. In embodiments, the composition is administered intravenously or intraarterially. In embodiments, the composition is for pulmonary delivery (e.g., inhaled as an aersol).
[0313] The compositions for oral administration can take the form of bulk liquid solutions or suspensions, or bulk powders. More commonly, however, the compositions are presented in unit dosage forms to facilitate accurate dosing. The term "unit dosage forms" refers to physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosages for human subjects and other mammals, each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active material calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect, in association with a suitable pharmaceutical excipient. Typical unit dosage forms include prefilled, premeasured ampules or syringes of the liquid compositions or pills, tablets, capsules or the like in the case of solid compositions. In such compositions, a compound as described herein is usually a minor component (from about 0.1 to about 50% by weight or preferably from about I to about 40% by weight) with the remainder being various vehicles or carriers and processing aids helpful for forming the desired dosing form.
[0314] Liquid forms suitable for oral administration may include a suitable aqueous or nonaqueous vehicle with buffers, suspending and dispensing agents, colorants, flavors and the like. Solid forms may include, for example, any of the following ingredients, or compounds of a similar nature: a binder such as microcrystalline cellulose, gum tragacanth or gelatin; an excipient such as starch or lactose, a disintegrating agent such as alginic acid, Primogel, or corn starch; a lubricant such as magnesium stearate; a glidant such as colloidal silicon dioxide; a sweetening agent such as sucrose or saccharin; or a flavoring agent such as peppermint, methyl salicylate, or orange flavoring.
[0315] Injectable compositions are typically based upon injectable sterile saline or phosphate-buffered saline or other injectable carriers known in the art. As before, the active compound in such compositions is typically a minor component, often being from about 0.05 to 10% by weight with the remainder being the injectable carrier and the like.
[0316] Transdermal compositions are typically formulated as a topical ointment or cream containing the active ingredient(s), generally in an amount ranging from about 0,01 to about 20% by weight, preferably from about 0.1 to about 20% by weight, preferably from about 0.1 to about 10% by weight, and more preferably from about 0.5 to about 15% by weight. When formulated as an ointment, the active ingredients will typically be combined with either a paraffinic or a water- miscible ointment base. Alternatively, the active ingredients may be formulated in a cream with,for example an oil-in-water cream base. Such transdermal formulations are well-known in the art and generally include additional ingredients to enhance the dermal penetration of stability of the active ingredients or the formulation. All such known transdermal formulations and ingredients are included within the scope of this invention.
[0317] Nanoparticles described herein can also be administered by a transdermal device. Accordingly, transdermal administration can be accomplished using a patch either of the reservoir or porous membrane type, or of a solid matrix variety.
[0318] The above-described components for orally administrable, injectable or topically admmistrable compositions are merely representative. Other materials as well as processing techniques and the like are set forth in Part 8 of Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 17ihedi tion, 1985, Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pennsylvania, which is incorporated herein by reference.
[0319] For injection, nanoparticles described herein can be provided in an injection grade saline solution, in the form of an injectable liposome solution, slow-release polymer system or the like.

[0442] Study design:
[0443] As outlined in FIG. 1 mice received LPS (0.1 mg / Kg) intratracheally (i.t.) to induce lung inflammation, (a model for acute respiratory distress syndrome, ARDS). At 30 minutes and 2 hours following LPS administration, mice were intravenously treated with the Compound 1 A containing nanoparticle (5 mg / kg). To study metabolic activity in the bone marrow and lung inflammation quantitatively, mice received 2-deoxy-2-[18F]fluoro-D-glucose (FDG), a radiolabeled sugar analogue. FDG uptake in the bone marrow is reflective of (metabolic) activity. It’s the source of the systemic inflammatory response in the lungs. FDG uptake in the lungs is reflective of inflammation. Six mice were also administered no LPS / no nanoparticle as a control group.
[0444] Results
[0445] FIG. 2 depicts percent injected dose of FDG per gram tissue. As shown in FIG. 2 bone marrow of mice with LPS-induced lung inflammation showed a significantly higher FDG uptake compared to control mice. Bone marrow of LPS treated mice that intravenously received the Compound lA-containing nanoparticles, had a similar (low') metabolic activity as control animals. These data indicate that the Compound I A- nanoparticles, silence metabolic activity in the bone when ARDS is induced in mice.

[0457] Table D. Overview of Stability Study of Compounds in Solution
[0458] Analytical Method for Measuring Compound Stability: Samples were measured with HPLC using both UV / Vis and MS detection. The UV / Vis detector is used to quantify the remaining parent material (= compound) and the degradation products, whenever possible. The MS detector (primarily used in SIM mode) is used to identify the different species. Two degradation products, rapamycin and secorapamycm, overlap with this HPLC setup and are indicated in the data as (seco-)rapamycm when they were detected. The species included in SIM are rapamycin, the parent molecule, the parent molecule +18, and the parent molecule minus one (or more) apolar substituent(s), where relevant, as M+Nah, XI \ 114 molecular ions.
[0459] Data Analysis: To quantify the stability of the compounds, the fraction of intact compound was determined as a function of the fraction of the total integral of the UV / Vis data at 278 nm, the Xmax of rapamycin. Based on the MS data, degradation products were assigned to the individual peaks (were possible) and individually plotted for each timepoint.
[0460] Stability7Data of Compounds in Solution: All compounds, with exception of Rapa- DLG[click], Rapa-bis~carbonate-C18, and Rapa-DSG[ click], showed a similar degradation rate in which the amount of intact compound that remained after 16 days varied between 40 - 60% (FIG. 7).

[0462] The formulation is shown below in Table E, For formulation and storage, a PBS buffer with pH of 6 is used as hydrolysis of the macrocyclic ester of rapamycin occurred at pH >6.
[0463] Table E. Nanopartide Formulation
[0464] Formulation Process: Formulations were performed using a stainless-steel three- way junction (ID=1. 59 mm (1 / 16”)) connected to two syringe pumps. Subsequent concentration and diafiltration of the nanoparticles was achieved using Vivaspin filters with a regenerated cellulose (RC) membrane with a 10 kDa MW cutoff. Afterwards, concentrated trehalose solution (50 w / v%) is added as a cryoprotectant (to 5 w / v% final concentration), and the nanoparticles are passed through a 0.2 pm filter to obtain the final product (at approximately 2-4 mg compound / mL).
[0465] In an alternative example to the formulation described in Table E, the organic phase may be isopropanol.
[0466] Stability7of Formulated Compounds
[0467] The analytical methods used to measure the stability of the formulations were a combination of HPLC-RP-UV+CAD, HPLC-SEC-RI, and DLS.
[0468] All of the compounds were formulated into the nanoparticles as described above, all samples were released in accordance with the following target conditions:

[0470] Z-average by DLS: 30 - 90 nm.
[0471] PDI by DLS: < 0.3.
[0472] After release, a forced degradation study was initiated in which samples were aliquoted in 200 mM tris, pH 8.5 and stored at 22 °C in the dark. Testing was performed as outlined in Table F.
[0473] Table F. Stability Study Design and Tested Parameters
[0474] Throughout the stability study, the nanoparticles remained size and shape remained unchanged, indicating stability of the nanoparticles and compatibility of the compounds with the nanoparticle carrier components. In contrast with the stability profiles of the compounds in solution, differences were observed in the stability of the compounds when incorporated into the nanoparticle formulations (FIG. 8A). The stability at different timepoints for each compound is shown at FIG. 88.
[0475] Potency of the Formulated Compounds
[0476] .Assay description:
[0477] The nanoparticles inhibit trained immunity via inhibition of mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) to treat inflammation driven diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). To determine the potency of individual nanoparticles formulated using different compounds of the present disclosure, a medium to high-throughput in vitro potency assay was developed to determine the half maximal inhibitory concentration (ICso). The assay focuses on measuring inhibition of LPS-induced MCP-1 secretion from THP-1 cell, which reflects a biologically relevant functional readout since MCP-1 levels serve as an indicator of mTOR pathway inhibition and trained immunity modulation by rapamycin derivatives. Briefly, THP-1 cells were plated, and nanoparticles were titrated in triplicate in a range from 0.028 - 5000 nM. In addition to nanoparticles, a fixed concentration of EPS was included to induce maximum MCP-1 levels. Cells were incubated for 24 hours and subsequently the cell cultured supernatant was collected for quantification of MCP-1 levels using ELISA.
[0478] A total of 14 culture plates were tested at once. In FIG. 9, the ICso for all compounds is displayed. All formulated compounds exhibiting an ICso value below 100 nM were subjected to a secondary assay to validate the accuracy of the initial ICso measurements and to determine whether the most potent candidates (Rapa-suc-NHGs and Rapa-glut-NHCis) maintained superior activity' in the follow-up experiment (FIG. 9). In all cases the ICso was below 100 nM, re-confirming the potency of the compounds. ICso’s measured in the second experiment showed a narrower distribution, with no distinct top performer. Consequently, all tested compounds in the second experiment were considered to possess comparable potency.
