In recent years, tumor immunotherapy has become an important means of emerging anti-tumor drug treatment. Taking PD-1/PD-L1 as an example, antagonizing the immunosuppressive signaling pathway of PD-1/PD-L1, releasing an anti-tumor immune response, and exerting an anti-tumor effect through the immune system, which has become a hot spot in tumor treatment today. So far, clinical trials have shown that PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors have therapeutic effects in more than 10 types of tumors, with an average effective rate of about 20%, and higher safety than conventional chemotherapy drugs. The successful clinical trials of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors have greatly promoted the development of tumor immunotherapy. However, PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors also face the problem of low efficacy. The existence of complex and multiple immunosuppressive factors in the tumor microenvironment hinders the efficacy of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors and makes the treatment ineffective, resulting in the lack of efficient anti-tumor drugs for most tumor patients, especially those with advanced tumors. Therefore, the development of new safe and effective tumor immunotherapy drugs has become the focus of current anti-tumor drug research.
Innate immunity plays a very important role in the anti-tumor immune response, and is an important direction for the development of anti-tumor drug therapy in recent years. Innate immune ligands interact with receptor molecules, and are involved in the recognition of molecular patterns of exogenous pathogenic microorganisms and endogenous abnormal damage, respectively called Pathogen Associated Molecular Patterns (PAMP) and Damage Associated Molecular Patterns (DAMP), which recognize receptors on the cell surface or in cells, including TLRs, RLRs, NLRs and cGAS, activate inflammatory pathways such as NF-kB and interferon, and recruit immune cells to produce immune response, and can activate anti-tumor immune response in the tumor, prevent tumor development and play an anti-tumor role.
Different innate immune receptors respond to different ligands, such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are a large family of molecules, 11 members have been found, which can exist on the cell surface or endosomes, among which TLR1, TLR2, TLR4, TLR5 and TLR6 exist on the cell membrane surface and sense extracellular ligands. For example, the well-known TLR4 can sense LPS to initiate downstream signaling pathways; while TLR3, TLR7, TLR8 and TLR9 exist in Endosome, which can sense RNA or CpG molecules, for example, TLR9 binds to ligand CpG, and TLR3 binds to dsRNA to initiate downstream signaling pathways. RIG-like receptors (RLRs) mainly sense the cytoplasmic RNA pathway, and the involved molecules include RIG-1, MDA5 and MAVS. NOD-like receptors (NLRs) mainly sense glycoside molecules on the cell surface. cGAS mainly senses cytoplasmic double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), and these dsDNA originate from exogenously entered viruses or from broken dsDNA released into the cytoplasm by endogenous damage. cGAS can be activated to produce cyclic dinucleosides (CDNs), and then activate the STING-TBK1-IRF3 signaling pathway, promote the secretion of type I interferon pathway, thereby activating innate immune cells, including APC cells and NK cells, and promoting the formation of anti-tumor immune responses and adaptive immune responses.
Among them, the cGAS-STING-TBK1-IRF3 pathway plays a key role in anti-tumor immunity. Activation of this pathway stimulates the production and secretion of type I interferons, which in turn activates the anti-tumor immune response. Activated cells involved mainly include dendritic cells (DC), monocytes, macrophages, and natural killer cells (NK), which induce and activate killer T cells, thereby killing tumor cells. In addition, activation of this pathway can directly enhance the activity of killing tumor cells, including pyroptosis, apoptosis and endoplasmic reticulum stress death and other death methods, which play a part of the anti-tumor effect. In addition, defects in the cGAS-STING pathway have been found in some tumors, such as colon cancer and breast cancer, leading to immune escape.
In conclusion, targeting the cGAS-STING-TBK1-IRF3 pathway has become an important strategy for anti-tumor immunotherapy. Among them, the activation of STING molecule to induce the production of type I interferon has become a promising direction in anti-tumor immunotherapy. At present, there are several STING agonists in clinical and preclinical research, such as DXMAA, ADU-S100, etc. Among them, ADU-S100 is a cyclic dinucleotide (CDN) analog. The main problems are poor stability of compounds, not easy to synthesize, unstable metabolism, etc., so the method of administration can only be intratumoral injection, which limits its clinical application to deep tumors. Although DMXAA is a small molecule STING agonist, it only has an agonistic effect on murine STING, while it was ineffective in the human-derived STING, so the phase I clinical study was terminated.
Therefore, it is urgent to develop a new generation of small-molecule STING agonists with simple structure, easy synthesis and stable metabolism, which can activate anti-tumor immune responses and exert anti-tumor effects.
The present invention provides a novel small molecule STING agonist with simple structure, easy synthesis and stable metabolism, which can activate anti-tumor immune response and exert anti-tumor effect.
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a five-membered heterocyclic oxocarboxylic acid compound, which has the function of inducing the secretion of STING-dependent type I interferon.
