The present invention relates to novel compounds as HIF-1α inhibitors, manufacturing process thereof, and a pharmaceutical use comprising the same as an effective component.
In spite of extensive efforts conducted for decades all over the world, cancer still remains one of the most incurable diseases. Recently, with great and brilliant advances in all sorts of sciences comprising cancer biology and medicinal chemistry, anticancer agents such as Gleevec®, which have innovative mechanisms, have been developed. Since the completion of the Human Genome Project, new molecules that are targets of anticancer agents have been discovered.
HIF-1 (Hypoxia Inducible Factor-1) is a heterodimeric transcription factor composed of two subunits: HIF-1α subunit, an oxygen-dependent decomposition domain; and HIF-1β subunit, a constitutively expressed domain [Cancer Metastasis Rev. 17, 187-195, 1998; Trends Mol. Med. 7, 345-350, 2001]. Under normal oxygen concentrations, the HIF-1α protein is hydroxylated depending on the oxygen at proline residues 402 and 564, thereby it will be ubiquitinated by interacting the tumor suppressor pVHL (von Hippel-Lindau) and decomposed by proteasome. In hypoxia, however, these consecutive reactions are inhibited, so that the HIF-1α protein is accumulated and translocated as a dimeric complex associated with the preexisting HIF-1β protein into the nucleus [Science 292, 468-472, 2001]. HIF-1β expression is relatively constant, therefore HIF-1 action depends on the stability and expression regulation of HIF-1α mainly. The stability of HIF-1α depends not only on partial oxygen pressure but also on factors involved in an oxygen sensing pathway, including transition metal ions, iron chelators, and antioxidants. In addition, the HIF-1α protein can accumulate irrespective of oxygen concentrations by activation of growth factors, such as epidermal growth factor, heregulin, insulin-like growth factor-I, insulin-like growth factor-II, etc., or of oncogenes, such as Her2 oncogene (Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2), etc. When these growth factors bind to respective receptors, HIF-1α protein is synthesized by activating the PI3K-AKT or MAPK signal transduction pathway, with the result that the HIF-1α protein accumulates.
Within a nucleus, HIF-1α/HIF-1β is associated with an HRE (Hypoxia Responsive Element, 5′-ACGTG-3′) on the promoter of a target gene to induce the expression of the gene. There are about 60 genes that have been known to be regulated by HIF-1, including a vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene [Nat. Rev. Cancer 2, 38-47, 2002; J. Biol. Chem. 278, 19575-19578, 2003; Nat, Med. 9, 677-684, 2003; Biochem. Pharmacol. 64, 993-998, 2002].
Hypoxia is usual in cancer, in particular solid cancer. Because solid cancer cells are adapted to a low oxygen condition after being subjected to various genetic alterations, they become more malignant and resistant to anticancer agents. In fact, hypoxia is known to play an important role in malignant cancer in over 70% of all cancer types [Nature 386, 403, 1997; Oncol. 28, 36-41, 2001, Nat. Med. 6, 1335, 2000; Cancer 97, 1573-1581, 2003].
HIF-1 is one of the most important molecules regulating the adaptation of cancer cells to hypoxia, and the amount of HIF-1α protein is closely correlated with poor prognosis of cancer patients. Whether attributed to the hypoxia, or above-mentioned the stimulation of growth factors or the activation of oncogenes, or the inactivation of tumor suppressors, such as pVHL, the cancer cells are activated, HIF-1α induces the expression of various genes encoding, for example, hexokinase 2, glucose transporter 1, erythropoietin, IGF-2, endoglin, VEGF, MMP-2, uPAR, MDR1, etc., leading to improvement in apoptosis resistance, angiogenesis, cell proliferation, and invasiveness, thereby resulting in the malignant transformation of cancer cells.
In addition, it is known that HIF-1 overexpression increased patient mortality through tumor growth stimulation and resistance to chemotherapy and radiation. Because it plays a pivotal role in the growth, proliferation and malignant transformation of cancer, in particular, solid cancer, HIF-1 has become a major target of many anticancer agents, and active and extensive research has been conducted thereon [Cancer Res. 62, 4316, 2002; Nat. Rev. Drug Discov. 2, 1, 2003; Nat. Rev. Cancer 3, 721-732, 2003].
Recently, a significant number of preexisting anticancer agents, such as taxol, rafamycin and 17-AAG (17-allylaminogeldanamycin), or small molecular compound YC-1(3-(5′-hydroxymethyl-2′-furyl)-1-benzylindazole) are undergoing various clinical demonstrations for use as HIF-1α inhibitors [Nat. Rev. Drug Discov. 2, 1-9, 2003; Nat. Rev. Cancer 3, 721-732, 2003; JNCI 95, 516, 2003], and cell based reporter assays for screening HIF-1α inhibitors of new structures are being actively conducted by taking advantage of HRE [Cancer Res. 65, 4918, 2005; Cancer Cell 6, 33, 2004; Cancer Res. 62, 4316, 2002]. However, these are in the early stage of drug discovery.
HIF-1α can be used as a valid target for novel anticancer therapeutics. Angiogenesis factors which are derived by an activated HIF-1α in hypoxia condition, such as VEGF, are associated with the progress of diabetic retinopathy and rheumatoid arthritis as well as cancer.
In addition, the compounds that inhibit an activated HIF-1α from hypoxia condition can also be used as novel therapeutics for the diseases comprising diabetic retinopathy and rheumatoid arthritis [Pathol. Int. 55, 603-610, 2005].
Consequently, the present inventors have prepared compounds that inhibit the HIF-1α activity and angiogenesis excellently, and have high safety in vivo. Therefore, HIF-1α inhibitors, treating the disease comprising diabetic retinopathy and rheumatoid arthritis which are derived by an activated HIF-1α, are developed.
Accordingly, the present invention is designed to provide novel compound having inhibition activity against the transcription factor HIF-1α and manufacturing process thereof.

The compounds according to the present invention can be considered as novel prevention and/or treatment for cancer, diabetic retinopathy, and rheumatoid arthritis by inhibiting HIF-1α-mediated gene expression. Therefore, the compounds according to the present invention exhibit anti-cancer activity not through nonselective cytotoxicity, but through selective inhibitory effects on activity of the transcription factor, HIF-1α, which plays a pivotal role in the growth and metastasis of cancer cells.
As used herein, the term “inhibitory activity against HIF-1α” of the compounds according to the present invention is intended to encompass all effects on suppressing the transcription of HRE (Hypoxia Responsive Element, 5′-ACGTG-3′), HIF-1α accumulation, and HIF-1α-mediated gene expression.
The effects of the compounds according to the present invention on the activation of HRE transcription mediated by HIF-1α under hypoxia were examined. As a result, the compounds potently inhibited HIF-1α-mediated transcriptional activity. Therefore, the compounds of the present invention can be used as active ingredients of anti-cancer agents, due to inhibitory effects on HIF-1α-mediated HRE transcription under hypoxia that suppress the growth and metastasis of cancer by down-regulating of the expression of oncogenes.
The compounds according to the present invention also inhibited the expression of HIF-1α proteins in a dose-dependent manner with no effects on β-actin expression under hypoxia. Therefore, the compounds according to the present invention can display anti-cancer activity without severe side effects, because the compounds suppressed the growth and metastasis of cancer cells by specifically inhibiting HIF-1α accumulation, rather than inducing nonspecific cell death.
Furthermore, the compounds according to the present invention show dose-dependent inhibitory activity against the expression of the HIF-1α target genes involved in the growth and metastasis of cancer, including VEGFA (Vascular endothelial growth factor A) that plays an important role in the growth and metastasis of cancer and EPO (erythropoietin) that promotes the generation of erythrocytes. Therefore, the compounds according to the present invention can be used as active ingredients for cancer treatment, due to decreased expression of several HIF-1α target genes such as VEGFA and EPO contributing to the growth and metastasis of cancer.
Hence, the compounds according to the present invention can effectively inhibit the activity of HIF-1α and are applicable to the prevention and/or treatment of various cancers comprising large intestine cancer, hepatic cancer, stomach cancer, breast cancer, colon cancer, bone cancer, pancreatic cancer, head or neck cancer, cervical cancer, ovarian cancer, rectal cancer, esophageal cancer, small intestine cancer, perianal cancer, fallopian tube cancer, endometrial cancer, uterine cervical cancer, vaginal cancer, vulvar cancer, Hodgikin's disease, prostatic cancer, bladder cancer, kidney cancer, ureter cancer, renal cell carcinoma, renal pelvis cancer, and central nervous system tumors.
Moreover, the compounds according to the present invention are therapeutically effective for diabetic retinopathy or rheumatoid arthritis by inhibitory activity against HIF-1α. The above term “inhibitory activity against HIF-1α” encompasses all effects on suppressing HRE (Hypoxia Responsive Element, 5′-ACGTG-3′) transcription, HIF-1α accumulation, and HIF-1α-mediated gene expression. As mentioned above, the compounds according to the present invention can selectively inhibit the expression of VEGFA in hypoxia without influencing the expression of the control gene GAPDH. Accordingly, the compounds of the present invention are useful as effective components for the prevention and/or treatment of diabetic retinopathy or rheumatoid arthritis, because VEGFA genes can be expressed by HIF-1α under hypoxia.
The present invention also provides HIF-1α inhibitors comprising the compounds of Formula I, pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates or hydrates thereof as effective components. In addition, the present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition for the prevention and/or treatment of cancer, diabetic retinopathy or rheumatoid arthritis comprising the above HIF-1α inhibitors.

<Experiment 1> Assay for Inhibition of HIF-1α-Mediated Transcriptional Activity (HRE Reporter Assay)
This assay was performed to determine whether the compounds according to the present invention exhibited the anti-cancer activity or not. The compounds can be developed as anti-cancer drugs, because the compounds inhibiting HIF-1α-mediated HRE transcriptional activity induced by hypoxia can suppress the growth and metastasis of cancer.
Inhibitory effects of the compounds according to the present invention, from Formula I-1 to I-42, on HIF-1α-mediated transcriptional activity were evaluated using this assay. pGL3-HRE-luciferase vector was constructed as follows. Six copies of HRE (Hypoxia Responsive Element, 5′-ACGTG-3′) from human VEGF genes were inserted into the multi-cloning site of a pGL3-basic vector (Promega). A luciferase gene was used as a reporter gene.
In detail, HCT116(ATCC #CCL-247) human colon cancer cells were seeded in 48-well cell culture plates. The cells were co-transfected with 25 ng of pGL3-HRE-luciferase and 2.5 ng of Renila control vectors using Polyfect reagent next day. After 24 hours of incubation, the cells were incubated for an additional 4 hours with replaced cell culture media. The cells were treated with various concentrations (0, 1, 3, 5, 10, and 20 μM) of the above compounds according to the present invention and incubated for 12 hours under hypoxia (1% O2, 94% N2, and 5% CO2). The luciferase assay was performed using a dual-luciferase reporter assay system (Promega). After cell lysate preparation with RIPA buffer, induced luciferase activity under hypoxic conditions was determined to examine inhibitory effects of the compounds according to the present invention, from Formula I-1 to I-42, on HIF-1α-mediated transcriptional activity. The results are assigned to four activity ranges and those assignments are reported in Table 1.
Inhibitory activity against HIF-1α (10 μM): A(76˜100%), B(51˜75%), C(26˜50%), D(1˜25%)
As shown in above Table 1, the effects of the compounds according to the present invention on HIF-1α-mediated HRE transcriptional activity were determined under hypoxia. The results indicate that the compounds according to the present invention show inhibitory activity against HRE transcription. In particular, 32 compounds of 42 tested compounds exhibited more than 50% HIF-1α inhibitory activity, and 18 compounds showed HIF-1α inhibitory activity more than 75% among the 32 compounds.
As mentioned above, the compounds according to the present invention can be used as effective components for cancer treatment, because the compounds inhibiting HIF-1α-mediated HRE transcriptional activity can suppress the growth and metastasis of cancer. In addition, these compounds displaying anti-angiogenic activity can be considered as effective components to develop the treatment of diabetic retinopathy and rheumatoid arthritis.
<Experiment 2> In Vitro Studies for Inhibition of Hypoxia-Induced HIF-1α Accumulation
Inhibition of HIF-1α accumulation by the compounds according to the present invention was determined in HCT116 human colon cancer cells. In particular, western blot analysis was used to identify the compounds, I-3, I-6, I-8, I-16, I-19, I-22˜I-24, and I-27˜I-36, which inhibited HIF-1α accumulation under hypoxia.
First, HCT116 human colon cancer cells (ATCC #CCL-247) were plated at the concentration of 2×105 cells/ml. After 24 hours, the cells were incubated under hypoxia (1% O2, 94% N2, and 5% CO2, expressed as 1% O2 in
As shown in
As mentioned above, the compounds according to the present invention can be considered as effective components to develop a new anti-cancer agent, because the compounds inhibit HIF-1α accumulation that forms malignant cancer. Furthermore, these compounds inhibiting angiogenesis can be used as effective components for the treatment of diabetic retinopathy and rheumatoid arthritis.
<Experiment 3> CAM Assay
CAM (Chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane) assay was conducted as an in vivo model to determine whether the compounds according to the present invention, I-3, I-6, I-19, and I-22, had anti-angiogenic effects or not. DMSO-treated groups were used as negative controls.
According to the present invention, CAM assay was performed as follows.
Fertilized eggs were incubated periodically rolling at 37° C. with 50% humidity for 2-3 days. When eggs were erected, approximately 3 ml of albumin was extracted from the sharp edge of the eggs using a syringe. The hole of the eggs was sealed with a tape to prevent from dryness and contamination, and the hole of the eggs was put down and incubated for 2 to 3 days. After punching a hole with 1.5 cm diameter in the round part of eggs, opaque membrane was removed carefully. The compounds (10-20 μg) according to the present invention were placed and spread on thermanox coverslip equally to dry, and then the hole in the round part of eggs put on the upper part of the fertilized eggs that vessels grew. The eggs were examined under the dissecting microscope and the results were given in
As shown in
As the above results, the compounds according to the present invention showing anti-angiogenic activity can be considered as effective components for developing new treatment of cancer, diabetic retinopathy, and rheumatoid arthritis.
In vivo anti-cancer activity of the compounds according to the present invention, I-3, I-6, I-8, I-16, I-19, I-22, I-23, and I-24, was measured in mice to evaluate in vivo efficacy by oral administration. Specifically, the nude mice were divided into test groups and control groups, each consisting of 4 mice. In vivo efficacy was evaluated by measuring body weight, tumor volume, and tumor weight.
Female nude mice 6 weeks old (BALB/c nu/nu, Charles River) were bred in germ-free breeding rooms maintained at constant temperature and humidity. After the nude mice were anesthetized, HCT116 colon cancer cells were implanted at a count of 4×10′ cells/mouse into the rectum in BALB/c nu/nu mice and then the incisions were closed with surgical clips. The size of tumor was measured by a caliper. When the size of transplanted tumor reached to 50˜60 mm3, the above compounds according to the present invention were administered. In more detail, after the above compounds in test groups were dissolved at concentration of 20 mg/kg in a solvent containing 80% of physiological saline, 10% of DMAC (dimethylacetamide), and 10% Tween 80 (hereinafter referred to as ‘Solvent A’), 15 kg/ml of dissolved compounds were orally administered once a day. Mice in control groups were treated with 15 kg/ml of Solvent A alone once daily.
Tumor volume and body weight were measured to identify in vivo anti-cancer activity of the compounds according to the present invention by repetitive oral administration. Tumor volume and tumor growth inhibition (TGI) in Table 2 were calculated according to the below Mathematic
According to the TGI results in Table 2, the compounds prepared according to the present invention, I-3, I-19, and I-22, displayed significant inhibitory effects on tumor growth.
Moreover, severe side effects and statistically significant changes of body weight in all mice treated compounds were not shown for 14 days, comparing to control groups treated with vehicle. (Table 3)
From the results of above example 1, 2, 3, and 4, the compounds according to the present invention can be markedly effective for developing anti-cancer pharmaceutical composition, due to excellent HIF-1α inhibitory activity without severe toxicity. Moreover, the compounds can be used for developing new treatment of both diabetic retinopathy and rheumatoid arthritis.
