Definitions

  • the invention deals with the structure and properties of water-soluble polymeric therapeutic agents (pro-drugs) based on derivatives of paclitaxel (PTX), docetaxel (DTX) and larotaxel (LTX), destined mainly for treatment of solid tumours in therapy of tumour diseases in human medicine.
  • PTX paclitaxel
  • DTX docetaxel
  • LTX larotaxel
  • Polymeric conjugates of cancerostatic agents with soluble polymers were prepared and studied where the drug with an anti-cancer effect was attached to the polymer with a non-cleavable covalent bond, hydrolytically instable ionic bond and/or covalent bond allowing controlled release of the drug and thus its activation on the basis of enzymatic or plain chemical hydrolysis of this bond.
  • Polymeric carrier systems are generally constructed in such a way to be able to release the therapeutically active cancerostatic agent from the carrier either in the tumour, or more specifically, directly in a tumour cell.
  • polymeric therapeutic agents An important group of polymeric therapeutic agents is represented by polymeric drugs prepared on the basis of copolymers of N-(2- hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide (HPMA), a number of which are actively directed to tumours by means of a targeting structure attached to the polymer (antibody, lectin, hormone).
  • HPMA N-(2- hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide
  • a targeting structure attached to the polymer antibody, lectin, hormone
  • HPMA copolymers as passively targeted high-molecular earners is due to their non-cleavable carbon chain and only polymers not exceeding the molecular weight of 40 - 50,000 g/mol can be excreted from the organism. This means that if accumulation of the polymer in the organism after repeated administration of the drug is not to occur and if the molecular weight of the carrier is to be as high as possible to make the passive targeting as efficient as possible, the polymeric carrier must be constructed as degradable in the organism.
  • Literature mentions a lot of information about the preparation and studying of properties of polymers carrying a cancerostatic agent, attached to the polymer by a bond susceptible to hydrolysis in an aqueous environment [Kratz 1999].
  • HPMA copolymers carrying the cancerostatic agent doxorubicin, bound to the polymeric chain by a hydrolytically cleavable hydrazone bond take an important position [Etrych 2002, Ulbrich 2004a, Ulbrich 2004b, Ulbrich pat CZ 293787 B6].
  • This bond is relatively stable in the bloodstream environment (in the course of transport in the organism) and hydrolytically instable in the slightly acidic environment of the living cell.
  • Paclitaxel and docetaxel belong to the group of taxanes, the anti-cancer drugs routinely used for the treatment of ovarian tumours and breast, lung, prostate and other tumours [Vanhoefer at al., 1997]. Besides their secondary toxicity, common for cancerostatic agents, they have another disadvantage of very low solubility in aqueous solutions, resulting in the necessity of administration in various excipients, especially in Cremophor EL, which also leads to other side effects of the dosage form. In some administration schemes the administration of taxanes in Cremophor EL may even significantly reduce the efficiency of the therapy [Ng at al., 2006].
  • paclitaxel was covalently bound to poly( ethylene glycol) (PEG) by a non-cleavable ester or 7-carbamate bonds (C2 -OH group), or by means of a hydrolytically instable amino-acid spacer (Ala, GIy) [Greenwald et al., 1995; Greenwald, 2001; Greenwald et al., 2003; Pendri et al., 1998]. It has been shown that the anti-tumour activity of the conjugate depends on the structure of the bond used between the polymer and the drug and that the molecular weight of the carrier is another important factor. The conjugate with PTX was tested in phase I of clinical trials [Satchi-Fainaro et al., 2006], but apparently with little success.
  • conjugate of paclitaxel with poly(glutamic acid) appears to be much more successful in clinical trials [Winter 2005, Kratz et al., 2008].
  • PTX is bound to a polyamino-acid earner by an ester bond via the -OH group in position 2.
  • the drug is released due to degradation of the polymeric chain, formation of the GIu derivative of PTX and its subsequent hydrolysis.
  • this conjugate is in phase III of clinical trials.
  • Paclitaxel has also been bound to HPMA copolymers by an ester bond using a biodegradable oligopeptide GlyPheLeuGly spacer. It has been demonstrated that PTX, after incubation with lysosomal enzymes, is released from the carrier and this release is important for achieving the anti-cancer activity in vivo.
  • PNU166945 is a conjugate of a HPMA copolymer with ester-bound PTX, which was clinically tested in phase I [Terwogt et al., 2000; Terwogt et al., 2001], however, after this phase further testing was stopped.
  • a polymeric drug in accordance with this invention is characterized in that a cancerostatic agent from the group of taxanes, paclitaxel (PTX), docetaxel (DTX), or larotaxel (LTX) (hereinafter drugs) is bound to a water-soluble polymeric carrier, prepared on the basis of a linear or grafted HPMA copolymer.
  • the drug is bound to the polymeric chains via an ester group produced by acylation of the -OH group in position 2 by means of spacers, containing pH-sensitive hydrolytically cleavable hydrazone bonds.
  • spacers may consist of acid residues of various oxo acids, by means of which the carbonyl group is introduced to the drug structure, linked with residues of individual amino acids, oligopeptides, or other structures, allowing termination of the side chains of the polymeric earner with the hydrazone group.
  • the molecular weight of the polymeric chain is selected below the excretion limit of HPMA copolymers from the organism, preferably in the range of 10 - 50,000 g/mol.
  • a grafted copolymer the molecular weight is selected in the range of 50 — 250,000 g/mol.
  • the polymeric drug in accordance with the invention is destined for intravenous (injection or infusion) administration in a solution, but it may also be administered intratumourally or intraperitoneally and is intended for treatment of solid tumours.
  • the polymer with the chemically bound cytostatic agent is constructed in such a way to be stable during circulation in the bloodstream and to prevent hydrolysis of the hydrazone bond between the given taxane and the polymer, or, possibly, to keep the hydrolysis rate in the course of transport through the organism as low as possible (at the pH value 7.4 in the bloodstream), so that no cytotoxic effect of the released drug or its derivative can be manifested.
  • the entire system is constructed as a two-phase system.
  • the polymeric conjugates with a targeted anti-cancer effect in accordance with the invention are characterized in that the cytostatic agent (taxol, docetaxel, larotaxel) is attached, by means of an ester bond and spacer, to the polymeric carrier formed by a linear [Etrych pat CZ 297827 B6, publ. 2008], or grafted [Etrych pat CZ 298945 (B6), publ.
  • cytostatic agent taxol, docetaxel, larotaxel
  • HPMA copolymer through a hydrolytically instable hydrazone group produced by a reaction of the carbonyl group of the molecule of the drug derivative with the hydrazide group of the polymeric carrier.
  • the polymeric carriers are generally prepared by radical solution copolymerization of HPMA with comonomers corresponding to the desired composition.
  • the binding of the corresponding taxane to the polymeric carrier results in considerable reduction of its cytotoxicity, considerable increase of the molecular weight of the drug, and thus extension of the circulation time in the bloodstream; i.e. extension of the total residence time of the drug in the organism and hence increase of its bioavailability.
  • the polymeric drug in accordance with the invention is further characterized in that the bond of the drug to the polymeric carrier is relatively stable in the course of the transport in the bloodstream and in body liquids and is hydrolytically cleavable in the slightly acidic environment of the tumour and especially inside the target tumour cells in endosomes characterized by slightly acidic pH.
  • the bond of the drug to the polymeric carrier is relatively stable in the course of the transport in the bloodstream and in body liquids and is hydrolytically cleavable in the slightly acidic environment of the tumour and especially inside the target tumour cells in endosomes characterized by slightly acidic pH.
  • the drug is transported via the bloodstream in an inactive form bound to the polymer and it is released and activated predominantly after the penetration into the target tumour cells.
  • the fact that the drug is only activated in the target cells eliminates the side effects of otherwise toxic cytostatic agents and directs their effect preferentially to the tumour cells.
  • the efficiency of accumulation in the tumour tissue may be controlled by the changes in the structure of the skeleton of the polymeric carrier (non- degradable linear polymer, high-molecular biodegradable grafted polymer) that is responsible for the targeted (passive) transport to the tumour or tumour cells.
  • the polymeric carrier non- degradable linear polymer, high-molecular biodegradable grafted polymer

  • polymeric precursors are synthesized, i.e. HPMA copolymers carrying the functional groups (random copolymers), serving as the polymeric carriers for the drugs.
  • a polymeric precursor, carrying functional hydrazide groups along the chain can be prepared either by radical copolymerization of the above-mentioned functional monomers with HPMA, or by polymer-analogous transformation of the basic copolymer carrying the functional groups.
  • Grafted copolymers are prepared from multivalent and semitelechelic HPMA copolymers in accordance with the procedure described in [Etrych 2008 pat, publ.].
