The present disclosure relates generally to compositions for targeting and treating neuroendocrine tumors. The composition in particular may include thyroid hormone αvβ3 integrin receptor antagonists (referred to as “thyrointegrin antagonists”) and compounds that are targets of the norepinephrine transporter (NET) or the catecholamine transporter (such as benzyl guanidine (“BG”) or its derivatives).
The norepinephrine/catecholamine transporter (“norepinephrine transporter”) is essential for norepinephrine uptake at the synaptic terminals and adrenal chromaffin cells. In neuroendocrine tumors, the norepinephrine transporter is highly active and can be targeted for imaging and/or therapy with localized radiotherapy. One of the most widely used theranostic agents targeting the norepinephrine transporter is meta-iodobenzylguanidine (MIBG), a guanidine analog of norepinephrine. 123I/131I-MIBG theranostics have been applied in the clinical evaluation and management of neuroendocrine tumors, especially in neuroblastoma, paraganglioma, and pheochromocytoma. 123I-MIBG imaging has been used in the evaluation of neuroblastoma, and 131I-MIBG for the treatment of relapsed high-risk neuroblastoma, however, the outcome remains sub-optimal. Positron Emission Tomography (PET) tracers targeting the norepinephrine transporter and its targets represent a better option for the imaging and assessment after treatment of neuroblastoma, paraganglioma/pheochromocytoma, and carcinoids.
Integrins are a super-family of cell surface adhesion receptors, which control the attachment of cells with the solid extracellular environment, both to the extracellular matrix (ECM), and to other cells. Adhesion is of fundamental importance to a cell; it provides anchorage, cues for migration, and signals for growth and differentiation. Integrins are directly involved in numerous normal and pathological conditions, and as such are primary targets for therapeutic intervention. Integrins are integral transmembrane proteins, heterodimers, whose binding specificity depends on which of the 14 α-chains are combined with which of the 8 β-chains. The integrins are classified in four overlapping subfamilies, containing the β1, β2, β3 or αv chains. A cell may express several different integrins from each subfamily. In the last several decades, it has been shown that integrins are major receptors involved in cell adhesion, and so may be a suitable target for therapeutic intervention. Integrin αvβ3 regulates cell growth and survival, since ligation of this receptor can, under some circumstances, induce apoptosis in tumor cells. Disruption of cell adhesion with anti-αvβ3 antibodies, RGD peptides, peptide mimetic or non-peptide derivatives, and other integrin antagonists has been shown to slow tumor growth.
Thyrointegrin antagonists have been shown to effect tumor angiogenesis by interaction with integrin αvβ3. The effect of thyrointegrin antagonists is described in U.S. Pat. Pub. No. 2017/0348425 titled Non-Cleavable Polymer Conjugated with Alpa V Beta 3 Integrin Thyroid Antagonists, the contents of which are incorporated by reference.
A composition comprising both a thyrointegrin antagonist compound and a norepinephrine transporter target compound would be well received in the art.
According to one aspect, a composition comprises N-benzyl guanidine and a thyrointegrin αvβ3 receptor antagonist, wherein the N-benzyl guanidine and the thyrointegrin αvβ3 receptor antagonist are connected by a linker.
According to another aspect, a composition comprises a general formula:
or a salt thereof, wherein R1, R2, R3, and R4 are each independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, iodine, fluorine, bromine, a methoxy group, a nitro group, an amine group, and a nitrile group, wherein R5, R6, R7, and R8 are each independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, iodine, and an alkane group, and n1≥0; n2≥1, and
According to another aspect, a composition for dual targeting of tumor cells comprises a norepinephrine transporter target and a thyrointegrin αvβ3 receptor antagonist, wherein the norepinephrine transporter target and the αvβ3 thyrointegrin receptor antagonist are connected by a linker, further wherein the composition is configured to dual target tumor cells via a) the norepinephrine transporter and b) reaction with the integrin αvβ3 receptor.
The patent or application file contains at least one drawing executed in color. Copies of this patent or patent application publication with color drawing(s) will be provided by the Office upon request and payment of the necessary fee.
Some of the embodiments will be described in detail with reference made to the following figures, in which like designations denote like members, wherein:
A detailed description of the hereinafter-described embodiments of the disclosed composition and method is presented herein by way of exemplification and not limitation with reference to the Figures. Although certain embodiments are shown and described in detail, it should be understood that various changes and modifications might be made without departing from the scope of the appended claims. The scope of the present disclosure will in no way be limited to the number of constituting components, the materials thereof, the shapes thereof, colors thereof, the relative arrangement thereof, etc., and are disclosed simply as an example of embodiments of the present disclosure. A more complete understanding of the present embodiments and advantages thereof may be acquired by referring to the following description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which like reference numbers indicate like features.
As a preface to the detailed description, it should be noted that, as used in this specification and the appended claims, the singular forms “a”, “an” and “the” include plural referents, unless the context clearly dictates otherwise.
Embodiments of the present disclosure describe new chemical compositions, and methods of synthesis thereof. The compositions disclosed and described herein may be directed toward anti-angiogenic agents, particularly thyrointegrin antagonists, which may be capable of interacting with one or more cell surface receptors of the integrin αvβ3 receptor family. The compositions disclosed and described herein may also be directed toward targets of the norepinephrine transporter (also known as the catecholamine transporter). Targets of the norepinephrine transporter may act as neuroendocrine tumor cell targeting agents.
The compositions disclosed and described herein may be directed toward a composition containing both a thyrointegrin antagonist and a norepinephrine transporter target. Further, the composition may use a polymer or other linker to link the thyrointegrin antagonist and the norepinephrine transporter target.
The norepinephrine transporter is a regulator of catecholamine uptake in normal physiology and is highly expressed and over-active in neuroendocrine tumors like neuroblastoma. Although the norepinephrine analog, meta-iodobenzylguanidine (MIBG), is an established substrate for the norepinephrine transporter, analogs such as (123)I/(131)I-MIBG or analogs having Fluoride (F18) instead of Iodide (radioactive) may also be used for diagnostic imaging of neuroblastoma and other neuroendocrine tumors.
Investigations have demonstrated that various neuroblastoma cell lines highly express the αvβ3 integrin receptors (90-95%). However, high affinity αvβ3 integrin receptor antagonists showed limited (40-50%) efficacy in term of tumor growth rate and cancer viability inhibition. Similarly, benzyl guanidine and its derivatives demonstrated limited anti-cancer efficacy of neuroblastoma despite its maximal (90-100%) uptake into neuroblastoma and other neuroendocrine tumors. Furthermore, treatment combinations of norepinephrine transporter targets such as benzyl guanidine or its derivatives together with thyrointegrin antagonists such as triazole tetraiodothyroacetic acid derivatives did not exceed 50% suppression of neuroblastoma growth and viability.
In contrast and unexpectedly, conjugation of norepinephrine transporter targets such as benzyl guanidine derivatives and thyrointegrin antagonists such as triazole tetraiodothryoacetic acid derivatives via different polymer linker such as Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) into a single novel chemical entity resulted in maximal uptake into neuroblastoma and other neuroendocrine tumors along with maximal (80-100%) suppression of tumor growth and viability at different doses. A thyrointegrin antagonist conjugated via a linker with a norepinephrine/catecholamine transporter target compound may provide a composition that has a dual targeting effect for neuroendocrine tumor targeting. For example, the composition may comprise an alpha-V-beta-3 (αvβ3) integrin-thyroid hormone receptor antagonist linked to benzyl guanidine (or a benzyl guanidine derivative) according to one embodiment of the invention.
The compositions described herein may be comprised of compounds, for example a thyrointegrin antagonist or derivative thereof covalently linked to a target of the norepinephrine transporter to form a single chemical entity. The thyrointegrin antagonist and the norepinephrine target may be joined via a linker.
Reference may be made to specific thyrointegrin compounds and norepinephrine compounds, for example, tetrac, triac, and benzyl guanidine. These phrases include derivatives of such compounds in accordance with the full teachings of this disclosure, even where such derivatives are not specifically listed.

As is clear from Table 1 and Table 2, there are a large number of compounds that may be used as the thyrointegrin antagonist 110 and a large number of compounds that may be used as the norepinephrine transporter target 120 in the composition. Further, the various thyrointegrin antagonists 110 may be combined with various norepinephrine transporter targets 120, resulting in a large number of potential chemical structures for the composition described herein.
Embodiments of each of the compositions described herein may have multiple types of utility for treating a plurality of different diseases modulated by angiogenesis or the inhibition thereof. Each of the compositions described in the present disclosure, in view of presence of the thyrointegrin antagonist 110 present in the described compositions, may have an affinity for targeting the integrin receptor αvβ3 located on numerous types of cells found throughout the human body and various animal bodies.

The individual steps of the scheme of synthesis of Composition 300 shown in
Although heterobifunctional linker is commercial αvailable, for the purposes of this example the following synthetic route for preparation is used:
Tert-butyl [(4-hydroxyphenyl)methyl]carbamate was synthesized according to the protecting method previously published {1) ACS Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 8(10), 1025-1030; 2017. 2) European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 126, 384-407; 2017. 3) Tetrahedron Letters, 47(46), 8039-8042; 3006} the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference. Product 1,4-Hydroxybenzylamine (0.62 g, 5 mmol) slowly added with stirring to a solution of di-tert-butyl dicarbonate (1.2 g, 5.1 mmol) at room temperature. After the reaction mixture was stirred for 8 h, the oily residue was purified by column chromatography [SiO2:EtOAc/hexanes (1:4)] to afford 0.82 g of N-Boc-4-hydroxybenzylamine as a colorless oil with 71% yield.
CsCO3 (867 mg, 2.67 mmol, 3 eq) was added with stirring to a solution of tert-Butoxycarbonyl-4-hydroxybenzylamine (300 mg, 0.896 mmol, 1 eq) in CAN (25 mL) at room temperature. After the reaction mixture was stirred for 30 min, Bromo-azido modified PEG(400) (445 mg, 1.05 mmol, 1.2 eq) added to mixture and then temperature increased till reflux for 24 h. It was filtered to remove excess of CsCO3. The solvents were removed under reduced pressure, and the oily residue was purified by column chromatography [SiO2:EtOAc/hexanes (5:5)] to afford product 3 as a yellow oil. Yield: 433 mg, 87%.

Product 4 (85 mg, 0.17 mmol, 1 eq), N,N′-Di-Boc-1H-pyrazole-1-carboxamidine (54 mg, 17 mg, 1 eq) was dissolved in 3-4 ml anhydrous diethylcarbodiimide “DCM” and then triethyl amine “TEA” (48 μl, 0.35 mmol, 2 eq) was added to the solution. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 12 h. After completion of the reaction the solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the residue dissolved in EtOAc (30 ml). The organic phase washed with % 5 HCl (25 ml) and brine (25 ml) and then dried (Mg2SO4).

Composition 201 may be referred to as BG-P-MAT, BG-PEG-MAT, or benzyl guanidine conjugated to monoaminotetrac via PEG. Composition 202 may be referred to as BG-P-DAT, BG-PEG-DAT, or benzyl guanidine conjugated to diaminotetrac via PEG. Benzyl guanidine derivatives or other norepinephrine transport targets may be used as described herein. Tetrac derivatives or other thyrointegrin antagonists may also be used as described herein, including but not limited to triac and triac derivatives.
Methods of Use
The compositions disclosed herein (including but not limited to the exemplary compositions such as Composition 300, Composition 201, and Composition 202) demonstrate novel dual targeting in treatment of cancer cells and tumors, particularly in treatment of neuroendocrine tumors such as neuroblastoma, pheochromocytoma, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, and carcinoid tumors. Further, the compositions show increased efficacy against neuroendocrine tumor cells when compared with thyrointegrin antagonist or norepinephrine transporter targets used or administered separately, i.e., not conjugated into a single composition.
The compositions may also be used for imaging of cancer cell/tumors. For example, the compositions described herein may be used to image neuroblastoma, pheochromocytoma, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, and carcinoid tumors. Imaging may be desirable for diagnosis and/or for treatment monitoring. Moreover, the compositions may be used for simultaneous treatment and imaging. For example, the compositions may demonstrate increased retention in the targeted cancer cells/tumors, allowing for enhanced treatment and more effective imaging.
The efficacy of Composition 300 (BG-P-TAT) was tested using neuroblastoma SKNF2 cells implanted into nude female mice.
Fifteen (15) female nude mice were implanted with twice with 106 cells/implant. The SKNF2 cell line was used with subcutaneous xenografts.
Eight (8) days following implantation, the mice were divided into four groups receiving the following treatment for 15 days:
Following fifteen (15) days of treatment, tumors were collected in order to evaluate histopathology, and the following results were collected:
As shown in
In summary, known thyrointegrin antagonists for treatment of tumor cells achieve substantially inferior results when compared with Composition 300 (BG-P-TAT). For example, triazole tetrac derivatives delivered subcutaneously daily for three (3) weeks at 3 mg/kg has been shown to reduce tumor growth by approximately 40-50% and reduce tumor viability by approximately 40-50%. Similarly, triazole tetrac derivatives have also been shown to reduce tumor growth by approximately 40-50% and reduce tumor viability by approximately 40-50%. Further, even a combination treatment of two triazole tetrac derivatives in combination delivered subcutaneously daily for three (3) weeks at 3 mg/kg only achieves a reduction of 40-50% for tumor growth and tumor viability. Similar results are obtained with treatments using benzyl guanidine and benzyl guanidine derivatives. Further, even co-administration of benzyl guanidine and thyrointegrin antagonists fails to demonstrate increased efficacy over the 40-50% mark.
In contrast, treatment with Composition 300 (BG-P-TAT) resulted in 80% reduction in tumor where the viability of residual tumor was reduced by 80%.
The αvβ3 integrin receptor antagonists (thyrointegrin antagonists) showed limited (40-50%) efficacy in term of tumor growth rate and cancer viability inhibition in the case of neuroendocrine tumors such as neuroblastoma, pheochromocytoma, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, and carcinoid tumors. For example, the graph of
Similarly, benzyl guanidine and its derivatives demonstrate limited (40-50%) efficacy in term of tumor growth rate and cancer viability inhibition in the case of neuroendocrine tumors such as neuroblastoma, pheochromocytoma, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, and carcinoid tumors. For example, the graph in
Furthermore, treatment combinations comprising co-administration of norepinephrine transporter targets such as benzyl guanidine or derivatives together with thyrointegrin antagonists such as triazole tetraiodothyroacetic acid derivatives did not exceed 40-50% suppression of neuroblastoma growth and viability. For example, benzyl guanidine co-administered with a tetrac derivative (BG+TAT) did not surpass the 40-50% efficacy demonstrated by individual treatment with either compound as shown in
Again, treatment with Composition 300 (BG-P-TAT) resulted in significant improvement in the effect on tumor weight compared with both the control and other types of treatments as shown in
The comparative examples from
Athymic female mice were implanted twice each with 106 cells/implant. The SKNF1 cell line was used with subcutaneous xenografts.
Group 1 consisted of three mice and were treated with PEG-TAT-dye (Cy5). Group 2 consisted of three mice and were treated with PEG-BG-dye (Cy5). Group 3 consisted of three mice and were treated with TAT-PEG-BG-dye (Cy5) wherein the TAT and BG were covalently linked with a PEG linker as compound 300. The treatment groups are shown below:
Fluorescence imaging (Cy5) was conducted 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, and 24 hours post-administration. Imaging results are shown in
Neuroblastoma tumor cells were used in the treatment example discussed. Those skilled in the art would appreciate these examples are valid models for treatment of other tumor types, particularly other neuroendocrine tumors. Further, any tumor or disease state demonstrating increased activity of the norepinephrine transporter in which thyrointegrin moderated antiangiogenic activity would be desired may be treated by the disclosed compositions.
In light of these examples, the compositions described herein show increased efficacy against tumor cells, particularly neuroendocrine tumors. These compositions may be used to treat neuroendocrine tumors such as neuroblastoma, pheochromocytoma, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, and carcinoid tumors, for example by injectable, topical, sublingual, oral, and other routes of administration.
