Description:
THERANOSTICS-LIKE PROTEIN SANPS CONJUGATED TO INTEGRIN AND PMSA TARGETING PEPTIDES AND THERAPY OF PROSTATE CANCER

Field of the Invention

The invention applies to the field of medicine and molecular biology and may be used for long-lasting therapy of prostate cancer with adjuvant effect using SANPs-theranostics (SANPs - self assembled nano particles). In order to provide progress in the therapy of prostate cancer researchers should develop perspective technologies of creation of new SANPs-theranostics and hold their pre-clinical and clinical trials, results of theranostics usage prove it.

Prior-art

Despite large progress in diagnostics and therapy of prostate cancer, this disease is still an longstanding problem for national health and economy in different countries. It’ s well known that androgen receptor (AR) plays the key role in appearance and development of prostate cancer. Researches in the sphere of D2D (targeted) delivery of therapeutic agents brought to a new therapy of prostate cancer (Elix C. et al. The role of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma in prostate cancer//Asian Journal of Andrology (2017) v.19, pp.1-6), which doesn’t allow to hold diagnostic while curing the patient. Cancer therapy largely depends on the introduction of cytotoxic drugs, which affect both cancerous and healthy cells due to limited selectivity of the drugs and wide spread of cytotoxic molecules throughout the body. Integration of targeted therapy and diagnostics have created a new field of treatment called theranostics. The main task of the discipline is the potential ability to track the progress of target delivery of drugs or other pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives using molecular imaging in the study subjects.

The term "theranostics" has been introduced for medications used for the treatment of various diseases, combining diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities in a single agent (US Patents 9687569, 9655980; Gupta M. K. et al. 2017). In the application to therapy and diagnosis of prostate cancer the first“theranostic”-alike delivery methods used the well- known radioactive labels to detect the accumulation of the drug (US Patent 9579408), then this approach was improved by the introduction of isotopes in nanoparticles (US Patents 9687573; 9550000), in consequence, the isotopic labels were replaced with fluorescent dyes (US Patent 9724035) and/or quantum dots (US Patent Application 20150194577; Probst C. E. 2013; Gobbo O. L. et al. 2015).

Currently, the efforts of research groups (e.g. Institute of Johns Hopkins in the USA or Oxford University in England) focused on the most precise direction of the target drug ("theranostic") or other pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives to cells of prostate cancer which can be reached by a combination of the two ligands (J. L. Crisp et al. Dual targeting of integrin a n b3 and matrix metalloproteinase-2 for optical imaging of tumors and chemotherapeutic delivery//Mol Cancer Ther. 2014), one of which is targeted to integrin a n b3 (Ruoslahti E. 2002), which was called iRGD peptide (US Patents 7488792; 8367621; 9441026; US Patent Application 20130343989; Pasqualini R. et al. 1996), and the second was called ligand for cancer membrane antigen PSMA (US Patents 9468672; 9446157; US Patent Applications 20100322862; 20170226141; 20170066719). But therapeutically acceptable doses of the drugs or their pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives should be taken into account.

One of the main problems of target nanotechnology medications is overcoming non-specific toxicity which can be eliminated by packing therapeutic drugs in SANPs with homotropic allosteric cooperative effect which is achieved by chemical modification of surface of the particles by peptides of the same structure. As an example, we can mention ferritin (apoferritin) (Heger Z. et al. 2014 u He D. et al. 2015), encapsulin (Moon H. et al 2014) or phage MS2 (Ashley C.E. et. al 2011; WO/2017/052419).

The last cited patent application discloses a method of cell apoptosis of malignant solid tumors by using chemically modified bacteriophage MS2 particles filled with salts of monovalent thallium ( 201 Tl thallium isotope used for diagnostic purposes: US Patent 9745631; US Patent Application 20160339113).

The development was to provide the production of SANPs "theranostic-alike" drug was held as as Abraxane™ or Taxol™ which are used in medical diagnostics, but the cargo SANPs are salts of monovalent thallium isotopes.

Brief description of the Invention

This invention provides new methods of obtaining SANPs-theranostics which can be long term used for treatment of prostate cancer with adjuvant effect. But adjuvant effect is only to the antigens of the tumor. As a filling can be used different monovalent thallium compounds known as salts of metal, including radionuclides and also, perhaps, quantum dots, primarily, the complexes TlSe or Tl 2 Se.

Medications obtained on the basis of SANPs-theranostics filled with monovalent thallium compounds known as salts of metals and radionuclides and quantum dots.

The principle of creating SANPs-theranostics can be applied for diagnostics, for example, reservoirs of viral infections caused by a variety of viruses - causative agents.

Definitions

“AAV” is an abbreviation for adeno-associated virus.

“VLP FMDV” is an abbreviation for virus-like particles (VLP) of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV).

"SANPs" (Self- Assembled Nano Particles) means ‘self-assembling nanoparticles of polypeptide nature’. But it’s known that self-assemblage of nanoparticles is also possible from peptides which can form numerous nanostructures because there are many different types of interactions between links of the polypeptide chain, for example, electrostatic, hydrophobic, or due to forming of hydrogen bonds. Peptide nanomaterials that are the result of self-assemblage into stable structures have potential application as tools for medication delivery and/or encapsulation. SANPs of this invention are natural reservoirs that represent theirselves as natural virions of viruses and virus-like particles formed like virions but without nucleic acid which are empty virions and reservoirs formed by known natural proteins.

"MBT-particles" is SANPs, such as phage MS2, virus AAV, VLP FMDV and the particles of ferritin, but not only, filled with the pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives, such as salts of thallium, but not only.

"iRGD" is cyclic polypeptide containing L-arginine, glycine and L-aspartic acid (order in the polypeptide is shown). In a protein this sequence (RGD sequence or RGD-peptide) is a common recognition element and protein-protein interaction of cellular proteins with integrins a n b3 and aib 5 . RGD-containing peptides are often used in cell biology and biotechnology due to the property to specifically bind with the specified integrins.

"Tl" is the chemical symbol of thallium. In the description of this invention thallium (Tl) is referred as a salt of monovalent thallium or radioactive isotope or a component of complex compounds with selenium (Se).

"Ras" is a superfamily of Ras-proteins which are small GTPhases and it includes Ras, Rho, Arf, G-protein, Rab and Ran. The Ras-superfamily includes more than a hundred structurally similar human proteins, there are more than ten human proteins of Ras. Ras are membrane- bound proteins engaged in one of the first steps of signal transmission from outside of the cell and, as a rule, regulate the reproduction of cells.

"P53" is a transcription factor that regulates cell cycle and functions as a suppressor of malignancy.

"PSMA" is a specific membrane antigen of prostate. It is carboxypeptidase and is relatively unique in its ability to function as N-acetylated a-related dipeptidase and hydrolase g- glucamine (i.e. folate).

"Polypeptide" and "protein" are used interchangeably and mean any compound by a peptide bond the chain of amino acids, regardless of length. According to accepted in the biochemistry of designations of amino acids, peptide structure "KLQCVDLHV" means heteropolymer with the sequence of amino acid residues NH 2 - lysyl - leucyl - glutamyl - cysteyl - valyl - aspartyl - leucyl - histidyl - valyl - COOH.

A“covalent bond” is called compound atoms by using a common (shared between them) electron pairs. In this case, refers to the ability of atoms connect with other atoms. During forming of covalent bonds atoms combine their electrons as if in common "piggy Bank" which is formed by atomic shells of individual atoms. This new wrapper has possibly completed the number of electrons and replaces the atoms of their own incomplete atomic shell.

In used here meaning "carrier" is SANPs nanoparticle with chemically modified surface and containing in its volume a cytostatic, or a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative.

Used here term "ligand" refers to PSMA acceptor. In biochemistry and pharmacology, a ligand is a chemical compound (often, but not always, a small molecule) that forms a complex with a particular biomolecule (most often a cell receptor, integrin). This binding occurs with forming of the so-called "coordination" donor-acceptor bond with polypeptides on the surface of SANPs-nanoparticles act as Lewis base, so they are donors of electronic pairs. When attaching ligands to the central atom chemical properties of the complexing agent and ligands themselves often undergo significant conformational changes. Other ligands may also be suitable targets for the SANPs-theranostic and such targets are also covered by the present invention. As a non-limiting example can be given enzymes, PSMA like.

Used here term "pharmaceutically acceptable derivative" means any pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate, prodrug and/or their compounds according to the invention which when administered to the recipient, can provide (directly or indirectly) the cytotoxic action or its consequences. Such derivatives are recognized by the person skilled in the art without undue experimentation. Nevertheless, we make reference to the teaching of medicinal chemistry and the cure Burger's 5th Edition, Vol 1 : Principles and Practice, which is incorporated herein by reference to the extent to which such derivatives. Preferred pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives are salts of heavy metals and containing organic compounds. Particularly preferred pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives are salts of thallium or platinum.

"Pharmaceutical compositions" are compositions that include a quantity (e.g., a unit dosage) of one or more described compounds together with one or more non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable additives, including carriers, diluents and/or adjuvants, and optionally other biologically active ingredients. Such pharmaceutical compositions can be obtained by standard methods of pharmaceutical compositions, such as described in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, Mack Publishing Co., Easton, Pa. (19 edition).

Therapeutically effective dosages can be determined stepwise by combinations of approaches such as: (i) characterization of effective doses of the composition or compounds in the analyses carried out on cell cultures in vitro criteria of tumor growth and/or survival of cells as a testimony, followed by

(ii) characterization in animal trials using the inhibition of tumor growth and/or survival of animals as a testimony, followed by

(iii) characterization in human studies with usage of enhanced inhibition of tumor growth and/or increased frequency of survival of patients as evidence.

As used herein, the term "subject" means any animal, including mammals and particularly humans.

As used herein, "standard conditions of conjugation" refers to the conditions of joining of the peptide (-s) that allow you to create a covalent bond between the peptide and the surface of the SANPs. In accordance with a particular embodiment of the conjugation conditions with higher efficiency can be used to provide at least 85% of points on the surface of the carrier.

"Quantum dots" are nano-sized (less than 10 nm) probes with high quantum yield, high photostability and fluorescence emission ability. Energy of quantum dots can be transferred to the surrounding molecules of 0 2 that leads to formation of superoxide anion (radical) having a high cytotoxicity. Quantum dots can be synthesized in aqueous solutions and are obtained for specific targets in the pathological region.

3C. Comparison of phage MS2 and its modified variants was performed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). To visualization the MBT-particles used contrasting silver (45 min, Aurion, UK). Fixation was performed in 1% (weight/volume) solution of Os04 in phosphate buffer for 1 hour and the filters were washed in phosphate buffer for 10 min. The filters were removed from the insert and randomly cut into 2 segments (3-5 mm x 2 mm). These segments were dehydrated in 30-100% ethanol and placed in Epon resin. Diamond knife Diatome did ultrathin sections of 70-80 nm thickness which then were placed on a copper grid coated with Pioloform. The grid was subjected to contrast staining in uranyl acetate and analyzed by for 35 min and washed three times by immersing the grids in lead citrate for 7 min. The Mesh was observed on transmission electron microscope JEM-1400 operating at an accelerating voltage of 80 kV using magnification ><8000.

The solution of anti-MS2 IgG (10 pg/ml) in the mixture with the dye N-hydroxysuccinimidyl ester 5- carboxytetramethylrhodamine (0.1 pm, kex=575 nm; kem=605 nm) was stored in 0.1 mm sodium acetate (pH=5,5). The standard procedure of binding IgG with glass was performed using 3,3-diethoxypropene triethoxysilane by previously described protocol (patent RF 681837). ETnreacted groups on the glass surface had been inactivated by treatment with 1 M ethanolamine pH 8.5. All studies were performed three times with a volume rate of 300 pl/min of Sample containing phage were diluted 1 : 100 and/or 1 :50 in "phage" buffer. After each measurement, the surface was restored with a solution of 100 mM NaOH and subsequent running rinse "phage" buffer. The molar ratio between IgG and dye allows to estimate the maximum amount of protein associated with the surface of the chip, the fluorescence of the dye (Patent US 5800996) associated with glass, thanks to the anti-MS2 IgG.

Example 4. Modification of SANPs surface by peptides.

4A. Synthesis of a peptide with the structure (NH2)-GRFLTGGTGRLLRIS-(COOH). Other peptides were synthesized in a similar way. The peptide was synthesized using method of solid state peptide synthesis based on Fmoc amino acids for automated peptide synthesizer Applied Biosystems 433 A on the resin with the attached residue of Fmoc-Cys(Acm) using amino acid derivatives: Fmoc-Cys(Acm), Fmoc-Arg(Pbf), Fmoc-Asp(OtBu), Fmoc-Gly, Fmoc-Lys(Boc), Fmoc-Pro. Removal of Fmoc-protective group from N-terminal alpha- amino group of the growing peptide chain was carried out in 22% solution of 4-demerol in N-dimethylformamide (Aleshina E. Yu., Pyndyk N. In. Moisa A. A., Sanzhakov M. A., Harybin O. N., Nikolaev E. N., Kolesanova E. F. Synthesis of a fragment of P-amyloid 5RHDSGY10 and its isomers. Biomed. chemistry, 2008, vol. 54, No. 2, 154-166). The joining of amino acids to a growing peptide chain (except Fmoc-Cys(Acm)) were carried out with pre-activated Fmoc amino acid hexaflurophosphate 2-(lH-benzotriazole-l-yl)- l,l,3,3-tetramethylene in the presence of 1 hydroxybenzo-triazole and 2,4,6-collidine, according to the FastMoc procedure described in the instructions to the synthesizer. Fmoc- Cys(Acm) joins with activation in situ, using diisopropylcarbodiimide as an activator in the presence of l-hydroxybenzotri azole. At the end of the synthesis the peptide was removed from resin by treatment with a mixture of trifluoroacetic acid, tri-(isopropyl)-silane, 3,6- dioxa-l,8-octanedithiol and water (in volume ratio of 94: 1 :2,5:2.5) and precipitated methyl tert-butyl ether. Precipitate of the peptide was dissolved in 10% aqueous acetonitrile with 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid, and the resulting solution was subjected to purification by HPLC on the column Zorbax SB-C8, 21,2x250 mm, 7 pm in a concentration gradient of acetonitrile in 0.1% aqueous solution of trifluoroacetic acid. The fraction containing the target peptide were collected and evaporated under vacuum, and then carried out the removal of the protective Acm groups of cysteine residues with simultaneous disulfide bridge formation by a known method (Fernando Albert cio et al. Preparation and handling of peptides containing methionine and cysteine // In: Fmoc Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis: A Practical Approach. Eds. W. C. Chang and P. D. White. Oxford University Press, 2000). The peptide was subjected to re-purification by HPLC on the same column, the fraction of the target peptide was evaporated under vacuum.

The purity of synthesized peptide was confirmed by mass spectrometric analysis by electrospray ionization and detection by ion trap and analytical HPLC in accordance with the protocols described earlier (M. H. V. Van Regenmortel, S. Muller. Synthetic peptides as antigens. Elsevier, 1999, pp.88-90).

4C. Conjugation of the peptide with SANPs (virions of phage MS2, or virus AAV, or VLP FMDV, or ferritin particles) was performed using dimethylacetamide in accordance with standard procedure known in the art (M. H. V. Van Regenmortel, S. Muller. Synthetic peptides as antigens. Elsevier, 1999, pp. 88-90).

Example 5. The definition of sensitivity of endothelial cell cultures and cultures of prostate cancer cells to modified MBT-particles (e.g., nitrate, but not exclusively), and agglutination of the cells of the modified virions of the phage MS2 and VLP FMDV.

Cell cultures were obtained from collection and were propagated according to methods known, for example, from the RF patents 2359030 and 2493251. Induction of integrins appearance on the surface of endothelial cells and cells of prostate cancer conducted endothelial growth factor (VEGF), according to the procedure described (RF patent 2377017). Agglutination of cells was performed according to the described procedure (US Patent 5401636; US Patent 5541417). The penetration of virions of the MS 2 phage, filled with thallium, recorded using fluorescence microscopy with the PTSA dye according to the procedure described previously (patent RF 2305270; Fig. 9). The calculation of the LD50 (number of particles per cell, which causes death in 50% of cases) was performed using the program Probit Analysis. The following results were obtained: HepG2 LD50 = 5,9; HBL100 LD50 =11.4 and for PC3 LD50 =3.3.

Example 6. Determination of the sensitivity of animals to MBT-particles with modified surface.

6 A. The study was performed on 310 white noninbred mice and 160 white noninbred rats. By the beginning of the introduction of the MBT-particles weight of mice was 18.0-22.0 g weight rats 170-250 g. Cages with animals were in a separate room. Light regime: 12 hours light, 12 hours darkness. The temperature: 2l-23°C, relative humidity of 55-70%. Mode of ventilation: 100%, without recirculation, with a shift of about 15 volumes of the room per hour, C0 2 concentration <0, 15% ammonia < 0,001 mg/1. The animals received ad libitum a high-grade specialized food for rats and mice, 2 hours before the introduction of the MBT- particles, the animals were deprived of food. Composition of surface-modified MBT- particles with radioactive 201 Tl was administered orally by adding sterile drug particles in drinking water. The remaining conditions of animals consistent with good laboratory practices (GLP, General Guidelines for Submitting a Proposal to ECVAM for the Evaluation of the Readiness of a Test Method to Enter the ECVAM Prevalidation and/or Validation Process, and "OECD series on principles of good laboratory practice and compliance monitoring"). After triple introduction, at 10 10 described above MBT-particles to each of the animals of dead animals was not.

6B. An experiment with newborn animals showed no toxicity in the same dose. Example 7. Determination of the effectiveness of the compositions of the nanoparticles on model of xenograft mice, according to the Xenograft Tumor Assay Protocol, Iruela-Arispe Lab (University of California, Los Angeles).

7A. Cell line PC3 was administered to 128“nude” healthy adult female mice (line NCRNU- F). In order to strengthen the relevant activity of the cells of PC3 line, pre-grown under conditions known to specialists. Cells were collected and injected into mice subcutaneously. Mixture for injection contained 5-l5xl0 6 cells in the buffer with penicillin and streptomycin, and the combination of 17P-valerate-estradiol (15 mg) and 300 mΐ Matrigel. In a period of 2 months, the surviving mice were selected for analysis of the engraftment of the tumor. The resulting model was considered positive according to histological analysis, immunofluorescence and PCR, in comparison with the control.

7B. Composition of surface-modified MBT-particles with radioactive 201 Tl in the amount of 10 10 particles were orally administered by adding sterile drug particles in drinking water. The medication was administered to three groups of mice with imbedded tumors (tumor sizes was 5, 7 and 10 mm 3 ), two control groups with tumors treated with cisplatin at therapeutic dose, and intact animals. In preliminary experiments established that the effect only MBT-particles, but not particles without filling or with filling, but without the "target" ligand. The disappearance of the cell line PC3 in xenograft mice treated with MBT-particles was observed by 12 days after the first dose. However in the group with a large tumor (10 mm 3 ) animals were killed by the deadline in 25% of cases. The size of the tumor was significantly reduced in all dead animals, but the dead animals with a tumor of large size found peritoneal exudate biochemical parameters which were consistent with laboratory values of tumor lysis syndrome (TLS). Biochemical characteristics of exudate were: uric acid > 1 mg/ml, sodium > 0.5 mg/ml, phosphorus > 0.5 mg/ml.
