Description

Novel boron-containing compound for boron neutron capture therapy
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT), and in particular relates to a compound containing 10 B compound and PSMA-targeted scaffold combination for boron neutron capture therapy, a preparation method thereof and a cancer therapy using the compound.
Background
Worldwide, cancer is the second leading cause of death next to coronary heart disease. Millions of people die each year from cancer, and about 1710 million new cancers exist in the 2018 world, wherein about 380 million malignant tumors in China occur, and the first disease incidence in the world is serious harm to life and health of people. Currently, means for treating cancer are mainly classified into surgical treatment, chemotherapy, targeted treatment, radiation treatment, and the like according to the kind and stage of cancer. Early and mid stage cancer patients are commonly high in survival rate after 5 years of prognosis by surgical excision assisted chemotherapy. However, for advanced cancers, systemic chemotherapy or radiation therapy is recommended because of the large tumor volume, tumor metastasis, or patient constitution, which are often not amenable to surgical treatment. Most of the chemotherapeutics and radiotherapy do not have tumor tissue targeting, and can cause killing effect on normal healthy tissues while inhibiting the growth of tumor cells, so that serious toxic and side effects are generated. Therefore, there is a need to develop new cancer treatments that improve the quality of life and extend survival of patients with advanced cancer.
Boron neutron capture therapy (Boron neutron capture therapy, BNCT) has become an attractive therapy in recent years in cancer treatment, particularly for the treatment of malignant tumors, which can selectively kill tumor cells using boron-containing drugs while retaining normal cells. Specifically, BNCT is a novel radiation therapy based on neutron capture and boron fission reactions. The treatment method consists of two separate steps (delivery of boron-containing reagent and neutron irradiation): firstly, boron-containing drugs are injected externally and are enriched in tumor cells, then, by neutron irradiation, the boron element captures neutrons and is subjected to nuclear fission to generate high-energy alpha ions and high-energy lithium 7, and then, the tumor cells in the gamma ray killing range (5-9 um) are released. BNCT has several advantages over traditional chemotherapy and radiation therapy: 1) The gamma ray range is small (5-9 um), only boron-containing cells are killed, and surrounding tissues are not damaged; 2) Absence of hypoxic cell radioresistance effects; 3) Avoiding the phenomenon of multi-drug resistance of chemotherapy and targeted drugs.
While the conceptual technique of BNCT is well known, the technical limitations associated with such treatments have delayed the development of this therapeutic approach, with the major impact barrier being the lack of ideal boron-containing agents. The ideal boron-containing reagent should possess the following characteristics: high intratumoral enrichment concentration, high selectivity (in vivo biodistribution tumor tissue/blood (T/B) concentration ratio > 3 and tumor tissue/normal tissue (T/N) concentration ratio > 3), low systemic toxicity, etc. From the current development history of boron-containing reagents, there are mainly three generations of boron reagents. The first generation of boron-containing agents were boric acid and its derivatives, which were first used in clinical trials in the 50 s and 60 s of the 20 th century, which were basic compounds but not identified to tumors, with low specificity. The second generation boron-containing reagent is developed, mainly comprising low molecular boron-containing compounds of undecahydrophobic disodium dodecaboride (BSH) and p-dihydroxyphenylalanine Boron (BPA), and although the performance is greatly improved compared with that of the first generation boron-containing reagent, and the BPA is approved to be marketed and the BSH is approved for clinical tests, the BNCT requirement cannot be met, the retention time in tumor cells is short, the selectivity is low (the concentration ratio of T/B and T/N can only reach > 1), and therefore, the effect of treating tumors is not ideal.
In recent years, research into third generation boron-containing agents has also been rapidly developed, mainly by linking boron-containing compounds with tumor targeting components to form novel boron-containing agents.
Various boronated porphyrin compounds are disclosed in US4959356A, CN1988848A, US5149801A, CN101605459a et al. Porphyrins are naturally occurring tetrapyrrole compounds which can remain in tumors for days to weeks and have affinity for various types of cancer, so that boronated porphyrins can increase their selectivity in tumor cells, further increasing the targeting of cancer treatment, but studies have shown that injection of such drugs can lead to high mortality in mice.
Different liposomes of boron-containing compounds are disclosed in CN1124921A, US5328678A, US20150238622A1 et al. Liposomes can entrap boron-containing compounds in their bilayer structure to increase the amount of 10 B they carry and/or to increase the tumor specificity of the liposome, thereby increasing the concentration of boron in tumor tissue and decreasing its concentration in blood. However, in the case of a liposome containing a hydrophilic boron-containing compound, when the boron-containing compound is encapsulated at a high concentration, the hydrophilic layer is ion-infiltrated to cause instability of the double membrane and collapse of plating, which results in leakage of the boron-containing compound, and thus, accumulation of boron in normal tissues and reduction of therapeutic effects are caused. In addition, a technique of binding a liposome and a hydrophobic boron-containing compound and encapsulating the boron compound in a phospholipid bilayer membrane has been developed, but this requires multistage and complicated synthesis, and therefore has many problems in terms of efficiency and cost.
In addition, there are many other novel boron-containing agents, such as a boronated folate receptor, a boronated Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) or an Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) monoclonal antibody (monoclonal antibody), a boron-containing nanoparticle, etc., which, although they achieve a certain therapeutic effect, increase the concentration and selectivity of boron in tumor cells, have low killing efficiency of tumor cells, and thus, there is still a need to develop new boron-containing agents in order to achieve a sufficient therapeutic effect in BNCT.
Prostate cancer is a disease specific to men, with a second leading incidence of cancer in men around the world. Therefore, the method is particularly important for accurate treatment of the prostate cancer, and has the advantages of targeting tumor tissues, inhibiting the growth of tumor cells and preventing normal healthy tissues from being killed.
Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA), also known as glutamate carboxypeptidase II (GCPII) and folate hydrolase 1 (FOLH 1), is a type II transmembrane protein and zinc-dependent metallopeptidase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of N-acetyl-aspartic acid (NAAG) or other glutamate derivatives. It is limited to expression in a few normal tissues, such as the kidney, proximal small intestine and to a lesser extent the salivary glands, whereas expression in the epithelial cells of most prostate cancers and in the neovasculature of other solid tumors is enhanced 1000-fold, which properties make it considered the most popular target for therapeutic applications.
The high targeting of PSMA targeted therapeutic agents coupled with the high efficacy of BNCT suggests that boron-labeled PSMA targeted agents are likely to be effective BNCT agents, and this approach can be used to treat prostate cancer, potentially reducing non-targeted side effects including dry mouth and myelosuppression. There are currently relevant reports of PSMA-targeting boron-containing compounds, SINAN WANG et al, <<Synthesis and Initial Biological Evaluation of Boron-Containing Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen Ligands for Treatment of Prostate Cancer Using Boron Neutron Capture Therapy>>,Molecular Pharmaceutics,vol.16,pages 3831-3841(2019), reporting eight PSMA-targeting boron-containing compounds, but these compounds have an intra-tumor concentration of boron of only about 4 μ g B/g, which is well below the 20ug B/g tumor threshold required in BNCT. Therefore, it is of great importance to find new boron-containing compounds for the treatment of prostate cancer with tumor tissue targeting, high intratumoral enrichment concentrations.

Animals of groups 1-9 were given a single intravenous injection of B10 mg/kg of the corresponding drug (PL 0057, PL0221, PL0233, PL0249, PL0502, PL0519, PL0705, PL 2061) and the positive control BPA (4-boron 10-L-phenylalanine), and whole blood and tissue samples were collected at four time points 1, 4, 12 and 24 hours after administration, respectively. After collecting complete blood samples, 12 male mice in each group were again collected for heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, pancreas, brain, tumor, muscle, fat, stomach, large intestine, small intestine. And analyzing the total B concentration in the whole blood and the tissues by adopting an ICP-MS method, and finally calculating and calculating the boron concentration of the tumor, each tissue and the whole blood.
Four time points were taken for each group of 12 male mice, 3 male mice per time point, and the average of the boron concentrations of the tumor, tissues and whole blood of the mice per time point was calculated. The data averages for compounds PL0057, PL0221, PL0233, PL0249, PL0502, PL0519, PL0705, PL2061 and BPA are shown in tables 4-12 below, and the corresponding tissue profiles are shown in fig. 10-18.

From the data results shown in tables 4-12 above, and the corresponding tissue profiles 10-18, it can be seen that:
Boron was distributed mainly in the kidneys and tumors after administration of non-fasted male tumor-bearing mice PL0249, PL0221, PL0705, PL2061, PL0519 and PL0502 for a single intravenous injection, with almost no detectable in the fat, wherein tumor tissue reached peak concentrations (41049.35 ng/g, 39128.89ng/g, 49662.21ng/g, 45123.67ng/g, 21869.11ng/g and 19727.05ng/g, respectively) 1 hour after administration, and it was found by calculation that T/B values could reach 8.8, 7.1, 6.5, 6.4, 4.0 and 3.6, respectively. With the extension of time, boron is distributed and cleared in the tissue faster, and the problem of tissue accumulation is not caused.
However, when the non-fasted male tumor-bearing mouse compound PL0233 was given by single intravenous injection, boron was mainly distributed in the kidney and tumor, but was hardly detected in fat and brain tissue, but the distribution amount of boron in the tissue was small, and the peak concentration was reached after 1 hour of administration, with a peak concentration value of 7365.67ng/g, and a T/B value of 6.0 was calculated; boron was also distributed mainly in the kidneys and tumors and barely detectable in fat in the non-fasted male tumor-bearing mice following single intravenous administration of compound PL0057, but was distributed in the tissues in small amounts, reaching peak concentrations of 1153.93ng/g after 1 hour of administration, calculated to be T/B values of only 1.3. In addition, BPA was selected as a positive control, and single intravenous injection was administered to non-fasted male tumor-bearing mice, and as a result, boron was found to be widely distributed in various tissues, except for adipose tissue, which was not detected, and tissues with higher concentrations were concentrated in pancreas, tumor and kidney, wherein higher boron concentrations were still detected in brain tissue 4 hours after administration, indicating that the drug was able to permeate the blood brain barrier, and the T/B value was calculated to be 1.7.
Thus, in summary, it can be seen that: compounds PL0249, PL0221, PL0705, PL2061, PL0519 and PL0502 had high boron enrichment and high targeting in tumor tissue, and T/B values were all greater than 3. In particular, the enrichment concentration of boron of the first four compounds can almost reach above 40000ng/g, and the T/B value can also reach above 6.0. However, when the positive controls BPA, compound PL0233 and PL0057 were used, the boron enrichment concentration in the tumor tissue was very low, the boron enrichment concentration of BPA was 8933.47ng/g, and the boron enrichment concentrations of compound PL0233 and compound PL0057 were 7365.67ng/g and 1153.93ng/g. In addition, the T/B values of BPA and compound PL0057 were less than 3, 1.7 and 1.3 respectively.
