Background

Prostate cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in men, and the incidence rate is the first year in European and American countries. Although the incidence rate of Chinese prostate cancer is lower than that of Europe and America, the incidence population of Chinese prostate cancer is greatly increased in recent years along with the coming of the aging society of China and the change of westernization of living habits. Meanwhile, the number of middle and high risk patients and advanced stage patients in the prostate cancer population in China is more, and the proportion is obviously higher than that in Europe and America. The curative effect of the tumor is closely related to the disease stage, so that the death rate of the prostate in China is still at a global high level at present. With the rise of the medical level, only a small fraction of prostate cancers are currently fatal cancers (e.g., late castration resistant species), and thus accurate staging and monitoring of cancer is critical to optimizing treatment.

The currently recommended imaging examination includes multi-parameter magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI), CT (computed tomography), Bone marrow imaging (Bone Scan), and PET/CT. However, the existing conventional imaging examination has certain limitations. For example, the judgment of lymph node metastasis and bone metastasis of patients with high-risk prostate cancer, the image monitoring of biochemical recurrence patients and other aspects are always the key and difficult points of diagnosis. With the progress of molecular imaging technology, the individual precise diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer is expected to be new. To date, a large number of molecular probes for prostate cancer have been used in the clinic and to benefit patients. In particular, the research on specific molecular probes using prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) as a target has made a major breakthrough in recent years, and has rapidly completed clinical transformation, and the probe has promising application values in diagnosis, staging, revalidation, recurrence monitoring, radioactive targeted therapy and the like of prostate cancer.

PSMA is a membrane protein with catalytic function, found early in the nervous system and named gcpii (glutamate carboxypeptidase ii). PSMA is normally expressed in prostate epithelial cells, and also in salivary glands, kidney, duodenum and other organs. The expression of PSMA (neovascular plasma enhanced leukemia) in prostate cancer and certain solid tumors (such as colon cancer, breast cancer, renal cancer and bladder cancer) is remarkably increased, and the expression level of PSMA is remarkably related to the differentiation degree and the metastasis tendency of tumors, the sensitivity to hormone treatment and the like. The research proves that the PSMA is highly expressed in almost all prostate cancer tissues, and particularly, the over-expression is more obvious in castration resistance and metastatic prostate cancer, so that the PSMA becomes an ideal biomarker for high-sensitivity and high-specificity prostate cancer metastasis focus localized imaging and advanced nuclide targeted therapy. The expression of PSMA is reported to be related to the malignancy degree of prostate tumor and the recurrence rate after operation, and PSMA plays an important role in TMPRSS2 ERG fusion mutation, androgen receptor signaling, tumor cell chromosome instability and other links, so that PSMA imaging can also become a means for tumor treatment pre-evaluation.

Due to the important significance of PSMA in prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment, antibody research (monoclonal antibody 7E11-C5.3, J591 and the like) is started first and is applied to imaging and radioactive targeted therapy experiments. Early research work demonstrated the feasibility of this approach, but antibodies have severe limitations as a clinically routine means of molecular imaging. Antibodies require a longer in vivo metabolic time (typically 3-7 days) to lower the background of blood circulation to achieve adequate signal-to-noise ratio; its size also limits its tumor penetration. In contrast, small molecule imaging drugs have great advantages in clinical transformation. The excellent small molecule imaging medicine can realize the fast elimination of blood background signal and cooperate with short half-life nuclide¹¹C、⁶⁸Ga and¹⁸f, etc.), the patient can complete the injection of the drug and high definition imaging within 1-2 hours. In addition, smallThe molecules are not easy to be identified and rejected by an immune system, and purification and quality control can be completed in a standardized way, so that the use safety and the reproducibility are guaranteed.

The medicinal chemistry research on PSMA was carried out around its inhibitors, researchers tried to find drugs for treating nervous system diseases, and found various classes of inhibitors based on phosphate derivatives (phosphonates) and Urea derivatives (Urea) in 1996 and 2001. Early studies of PSMA inhibitors provided a viable small molecule tool for the development of highly potent PSMA-targeting agents. In 2002, the first Urea small molecule inhibitor was obtained in Pomper laboratory of John Hopkins medical school

Introduced into the prostate cancer specific nuclear medicine imaging research and reported the first generation in 2012¹⁸The results of clinical experiments with F imaging reagents confirm its feasibility and specificity (molecular imaging,2002,1,96-101.Journal of Nuclear Medicine,2012,53, 1883-1891). The PSMA high specificity imaging of the prostate cancer promotes the development of nuclide targeting treatment. Studies in this area since 2013 in Germany, PSMA-guided Beta-radionuclides¹⁷⁷Targeted therapy by Lu against late castration resistant prostate cancer shows an effective control rate of up to 80%, with about 23% of cases achieving a reduction in PSA index of more than 80% blood test.

Nuclide targeted therapy selection of low-energy Beta-ray nuclide¹⁷⁷Lu balances the curative effect and the use safety, each slow course of treatment (2 months) gives the recovery time of high-background normal organs such as kidney and the like, and also gives the opportunity of further proliferation and mutation of tumor cells and generation of resistance, and about 20 percent of ineffective cases and a plurality of cases of gradual runaway in treatment are found in experiments. Higher energy and highly cytotoxic Alpha-radionuclides²²⁵Ac、²¹³The use of Bi urgently needs a targeting reagent with higher specificity and in-vivo metabolic characteristics so as to avoid huge toxic and side effects.

Since 2012 later, pharmaceutical scientific research has been advanced and focused on the core problems of clinical transformation such as metabolic kinetics, nuclide selection and optimization, and a plurality of improved molecules based on the Urea structure have been reported, and clinical experiments are developed in a plurality of countries and show huge application potential. However, due to the conservation of the PSMA inhibitor structure, some minor changes to the core structure of urea inhibitors result in rapid decrease of binding constants (Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters 20(2010) 392-. At present, hundreds of compounds for improving the PSMA inhibitor are reported in documents, only individual improved inhibitors show the binding constant similar to that of urea inhibitor compounds, and the structures of partial compounds are unstable, so that the application prospect is very little.

In contrast, unlike the very conservative nature of the core structure, researchers have found that there is little restriction on the choice of R groups for PSMA inhibitors. FIG. 1 shows the catalytic activity mechanism of PSMA (biochemistry.2009 May 19; 48(19):4126-38), and it can be seen that the core structures for catalysis are the S1 pocket, the S1' pocket and the Zn catalytic site, and the functional groups attached to the S1 pocket have far less influence on the catalytic activity than the core structures. A review article for PSMA also corroborates this conclusion (The query Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, 2015; 59: 241-68).

Among the numerous clinical application indexes of the PSMA inhibitor, affinity is one of the most critical indexes, and determines the targeting property of the PSMA inhibitor, thereby influencing the application of the PSMA inhibitor as a diagnostic reagent or a therapeutic drug. Therefore, if an effective inhibitor of PSMA with better affinity, which is improved aiming at the core structure, can be developed, important scientific research value and wide application prospect will undoubtedly be achieved.

LNCaP cell lysates (total protein concentration 125. mu.g/mL) were prepared in advance. Taking 25 mu L of cell lysate,mu.L of inhibitor and 25. mu.L of N-acetylaspartylglutamate (NAAG, 16. mu.M) were incubated together in a 96-well Plate (Costar Assay Plate, cat. No. 3925) at 37 ℃ for 180 minutes.

Test example 2

This test example is intended to illustrate the results of a flow analysis experiment of compound S2.

LNCaP cells were diluted 1X10 with RPMI-1640 (containing 10% FBS)⁶and/mL. For staining, cells were incubated with 2 μ M concentration of YC-36 at room temperature for 1 hour, followed by washing twice with the same medium and resuspending the cells by adding cold PBS. The inhibition group was incubated with the cells at room temperature for 1 hour with YC-36 at a concentration of 2. mu.M and compound S2 at a concentration of 200. mu.M. The cells were analyzed by BDInfles Cell sorter (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA95131, USA) flow test and FlowJo software, and the results are shown in FIG. 6.

Panel A shows the results without addition of inhibitor (Compound S2), and panel B shows the results with addition of 100X inhibitor (Compound S2).

YC-36 is a fluorescent molecule with high affinity for PSMA, and can selectively stain cells with high PSMA expression (Kiess, A.P., et al., Auster Radiopharmaceutical Therapy targeting protein-Specific Membrane antibody. J Nucl Med,2015.56(9): p.1401-1407.). The flow cytometry results show that the compound S2 can obviously inhibit the staining of YC-36 on LNCaP of PSMA high expression cells, and the result shows that the compound S2 can be specifically combined with PSMA protein and has higher affinity than YC-36.

Test example 3

This example illustrates the results of fluorescence microscopy imaging experiments with compound S1 and compound S2.

LNCaP cells were diluted 1X10 with RPMI-1640 (containing 10% FBS)⁶and/mL. In the staining, the cells were incubated with 2. mu.M concentration of Compound S1 at room temperature for 1 hour, and in the inhibition group, the cells were incubated with 2. mu.M concentration of Compound S1 and 200. mu.M concentration of Compound S2 at room temperature for 1 hour. After staining was completed, excess dye compound was removed by centrifugation, resuspended by adding cold PBS, pipetted uniformly, 100. mu.L of the suspension was added to a 96-well plate, allowed to stand for several minutes and observed under a fluorescence microscope. The results are shown in FIG. 7. Wherein, panel A shows the results of adding no inhibitor (Compound S2), and panel B shows the results of adding 100X inhibitor (Compound S2).

From fluorescence microscopy imaging results, the compound S2 can obviously inhibit staining of LNCaP cells by blue-light dye compound S1, which indicates that the compound S1 is cell staining achieved by specific binding to PSMA protein on one hand, and indicates that the compound S2 can obviously inhibit staining of cells by the compound S1 on the other hand, and proves that the compound S2 has higher affinity.
