FUNCTIONALIZED N-ACETYLGALACTOSAMINE NUCLEOSIDES Field [0001] The present application relates to N-acetylgalactosamine-conjugated nucleosides and their methods of preparation. The N-acetylgalactosamine-conjugated on-base nucleosides disclosed herein may be used for targeted in vivo delivery of oligonucleotide-based therapeutics. BACKGROUND Description of the Related Art [0002] Oligonucleotide-based drugs have become a powerful epitome having ability to treat various diseases. N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) is a well-defined liver-targeted moiety benefiting from its high affinity with asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGPR). It can facilitate uptake and clearance of circulating GalNAc-conjugated oligo via clathrin-mediated endocytosis. The strongest attribute of GalNAc conjugates, compared to other oligo conjugates, is the internalization and cellular trafficking efficiency, which enables near-complete mRNA knockdown at exceedingly low doses in preclinical species and human subjects. This differentiating factor is related to the high membrane density of the ASGPR on hepatocytes and the rapid cycle in which it internalizes and recycles back to the cell surface. Only 15 mins are required for ASGPR internalization and recycling to the cell surface. [0003] ASGPR consists of two homologous subunits, designated H1 and H2 in the human system, which form a non-covalent heterooligomeric complex with estimated ratios of 2:1 and 5:1, respectively. Both subunits are single-spanning membrane proteins with a calcium- dependent Gal/GalNAc recognition domain (CRDs). On the native receptor on the hepatocyte surface these binding sites are 25-30 Å apart. All conjugations of mono-, di-, tri-, or tetra-GalNAc sugars can enhance the delivery efficiency of oligonucleotides to hepatocytes. [0004] GalNAc conjugation at the 2’ and 3’ positions of ribose have been previously reported. Oligonucleotide therapeutics have pharmacological challenges including susceptibility to nuclease-mediated degradation, rapid elimination, poor biodistribution, insufficient membrane permeability, immune stimulation, and potentially significant off-target effects. To overcome these pharmacological challenges, chemical modification to the ribose sugar is often necessary. However, the location of GalNAc on 2’ and/or 3’ positions could limit the application of these strategies on modified nucleosides, such as 2’-F, 2’-OMe, 2’-MOE nucleosides, all of which are commonly used sugar modifications. Using GalNAc-conjugated on-base nucleosides could address known stability and delivery problems for GalNAc-conjugated nucleosides, particularly when these nucleosides are internal in or at the ends of the sense strand. Accordingly, a need exists for preparing novel GalNAc-conjugated nucleosides, especially those with modified ribose at 2’ and/or 3’ position and other constrained ribose structures.

In addition, if a group or substituent is depicted as and when L is defined as a bond or absent; such group or substituent is equivalent [0074] It is to be understood that where compounds disclosed herein have unfilled valencies, then the valencies are to be filled with hydrogens and/or deuteriums. [0075] It is understood that the compounds described herein can be labeled isotopically or by another other means, including, but not limited to, the use of chromophores or fluorescent moieties, bioluminescent labels, or chemiluminescent labels. Substitution with isotopes such as deuterium may afford certain therapeutic advantages from greater metabolic stability, such as, for example, increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements. Each chemical element as represented in a compound structure may include any isotope of said element. For example, in a compound structure a hydrogen atom may be explicitly disclosed or understood to be present in the compound. At any position of the compound that a hydrogen atom may be present, the hydrogen atom can be any isotope of hydrogen, including but not limited to hydrogen- 1 (protium), hydrogen-2 (deuterium), and hydrogen-3 (tritium). Thus, reference herein to a compound encompasses all potential isotopic forms unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. [0076] It is understood that the methods and formulations described herein include the use of crystalline forms, amorphous phases, and/or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, hydrates, and conformers of compounds of preferred embodiments, as well as metabolites and active metabolites of these compounds having the same type of activity. A conformer is a structure that is a conformational isomer. Conformational isomerism is the phenomenon of molecules with the same structural formula but different conformations (conformers) of atoms about a rotating bond. In specific embodiments, the compounds described herein exist in solvated forms with pharmaceutically acceptable solvents such as water, ethanol, or the like. In other embodiments, the compounds described herein exist in unsolvated form. Solvates contain either stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric amounts of a solvent, and may be formed during the process of crystallization with pharmaceutically acceptable solvents such as water, ethanol, or the like. Hydrates are formed when the solvent is water, or alcoholates are formed when the solvent is alcohol. In addition, the compounds provided herein can exist in unsolvated as well as solvated forms. In general, the solvated forms are considered equivalent to the unsolvated forms for the purposes of the compounds and methods provided herein. Other forms in which the compounds of preferred embodiments can be provided include amorphous forms, milled forms and nano- particulate forms.

Solid Support conjugated with GalNAc nucleosides [0100] Some embodiments of the present application relate to a solid support comprising the nucleoside compound of Formula (I), (Ia) or (Ib) as described herein covalently attached thereto, for example, via R ⁴ of the compound. In one embodiment, R ⁴ is −C(=O)CH ₂ CH ₂ C(=O)OH.

In further embodiments, the solid support comprises an oligonucleotide, and the compound is incorporated into the oligonucleotide sequence, for example, to the terminal of the oligo sequence (either at the 5’ end or at the 3’ end). In any embodiments, the solid support may comprise controlled pore glass (CPG) or macroporous polystyrene (MPPS). GalNAc conjugated nucleosides in oligonucleotide synthesis [0101] Some embodiments of the present application relate to a method for preparing a synthetic oligonucleotide, comprising reacting a compound described herein, with an oligonucleotide. In some embodiments, the oligonucleotide comprises 1 to 100 base length, 5 to 50 base length, or 10 to 30 base lengths. In further embodiments, the reaction is conducted on a solid support. [0102] FIG. 6 illustrates a synthetic cycle of oligonucleotide using a nucleoside containing phosphoramidite moiety as described herein. The cycle typically includes the following steps as described below in details. Step 1: De-blocking (detritylation) [0103] The DMTr group is removed with a solution of an acid, such as 2% trichloroacetic acid (TCA) or 3% dichloroacetic acid (DCA), in an inert solvent (dichloromethane or toluene). The orange-colored DMTr cation formed is washed out; the step results in the solid support-bound oligonucleotide precursor bearing a free 5'-terminal hydroxy group. Step 2: Coupling [0104] A 0.02–0.2M solution of nucleoside phosphoramidite (or a mixture of several phosphoramidites) in acetonitrile is activated by a 0.2–0.7 M solution of an acidic azole catalyst, 1H-tetrazole, 5-ethylthio-1H-tetrazole, 2-benzylthiotetrazole, 4,5-dicyanoimidazole, or a number of similar compounds. The mixing is usually very brief and occurs in fluid lines of oligonucleotide synthesizers (see below) while the components are being delivered to the reactors containing solid support. The activated phosphoramidite in 1.5–20-fold excess over the support-bound material is then brought in contact with the starting solid support (first coupling) or a support-bound oligonucleotide precursor (following couplings) whose 5'-hydroxy group reacts with the activated phosphoramidite moiety of the incoming nucleoside phosphoramidite to form a phosphite triester linkage. The reaction is also highly sensitive to the presence of water, particularly when dilute solutions of phosphoramidites are used, and is commonly carried out in anhydrous acetonitrile. Upon the completion of the coupling, any unbound reagents and by-products are removed by washing. Step 3: Capping [0105] The capping step is performed by treating the solid support-bound material with a mixture of acetic anhydride and 1-methylimidazole or, less often, DMAP as catalysts and, in the phosphoramidite method, serves two purposes. After the completion of the coupling reaction, a small percentage of the solid support-bound 5'-OH groups (0.1 to 1%) remains unreacted and needs to be permanently blocked from further chain elongation to prevent the formation of oligonucleotides with an internal base deletion commonly referred to as (n-1) shortmers. The unreacted 5'-hydroxy groups are, to a large extent, acetylated by the capping mixture. Step 4: Oxidation [0106] The newly formed tricoordinated phosphite triester linkage is not natural and is of limited stability under the conditions of oligonucleotide synthesis. The treatment of the support-bound material with iodine and water in the presence of a weak base (pyridine, lutidine, or collidine) oxidizes the phosphite triester into a tetracoordinated phosphate triester, a protected precursor of the naturally occurring phosphate diester internucleosidic linkage. Oxidation may be carried out under anhydrous conditions using tert-Butyl hydroperoxide or (1S)-(+)-(10- camphorsulfonyl)-oxaziridine (CSO). The step of oxidation may be substituted with a sulfurization step to obtain oligonucleotide phosphorothioates. In the latter case, the sulfurization step is best carried out prior to capping. [0107] In solid-phase synthesis, an oligonucleotide being assembled is covalently bound, via its 3'-terminal hydroxy group, to a solid support material and remains attached to it over the entire course of the chain assembly. The solid support is contained in columns whose dimensions depend on the scale of synthesis and may vary between 0.05 mL and several liters. At the end of the chain assembly, the oligonucleotide is released from the solid support and is eluted from the column or the well. The two most often used solid-phase materials are controlled pore glass (CPG) and macroporous polystyrene (MPPS). [0108] In contrast to organic solid-phase synthesis and peptide synthesis, the synthesis of oligonucleotides proceeds best on non-swellable or low-swellable solid supports. The two most often used solid-phase materials are controlled pore glass (CPG) and macroporous polystyrene (MPPS). [0109] CPG is commonly defined by its pore size. In oligonucleotide chemistry, pore sizes of 500, 1000, 1500, 2000, and 3000 Å are used to allow the preparation of about 50, 80, 100, 150, and 200-mer oligonucleotides, respectively. To make native CPG suitable for further processing, the surface of the material is treated with (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane to give aminopropyl CPG. The aminopropyl arm may be further extended to result in long chain aminoalkyl (LCAA) CPG. The amino group is then used as an anchoring point for linkers suitable for oligonucleotide synthesis. [0110] MPPS suitable for oligonucleotide synthesis is a low-swellable, highly cross- linked polystyrene obtained by polymerization of divinylbenzene, styrene, and 4- chloromethylstyrene in the presence of a porogeneous agent. The macroporous chloromethyl MPPS obtained is converted to aminomethyl MPPS.

The linker was prepared using a two-step process. [0113] Step 1: Sodium hydride (36 g, 0.9 mol, 60% dispersion in mineral oil) was stirred in 50 mL of tetrahydrofuran (THF). The mixture was allowed to stand until it settled, and the THF was decanted. This washing process was repeated an additional time. To the washed sodium hydride, 133 mL of THF was added and the resulting suspension was cooled to 0 ˚C. Ethanolamine (30.54 g, 0.5 mol) was added dropwise to the suspension over 10 minutes and the reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to 0 ˚C and propargyl bromide (89.28 g, 0.6 moles, 80% in toluene) was added dropwise. After addition was completed, the reaction was stirred at ambient for 16 hours. The mixture was then diluted with 200 mL of THF, filtered, and the solids were washed with THF (500 mL). The THF filtrate was combine and evaporated.

The reaction was monitored by HPLC and was determined to be completed when HPLC showed that the starting material 5-iodo-ddU (2) was less than 3%. Bicarbonate resin was added into reaction mixture and the resulting mixture was stirred for one hour. The mixture was filtered and the solid was washed with DCM-methanol (1:1).

The final cycle to couple novel GalNAc-conjugated phosphoramidites includes the sample detritylation, oxidation, and capping step, while the coupling is using a mixture of 0.05 M novel GalNAc-conjugated phosphoramidites in acetonitrile and 0.5 M activator for 3 minutes for two times, followed by acetonitrile washing. [0156] After synthesis, the oligonucleotide-bounded solid supports were treated with a 1:1 mixture of aqueous ammonia hydroxide and methylamine at 55瀽C for 2 hours for cleavage and deprotection. Upon completion, the liquid phase was collected and heat dried in vacuum. The dried residue was dissolved in water and analyzed by reverse-phase HPLC (Agilent 1260) and LC-MS (Applied Biosystems 4000 Q-Trap). The HPLC gradient was 30-70% B in 20 min, with A: 50 mM triethylammonium acetate in water and B: 80% 50 mM triethylammonium acetate in water and 20% acetonitrile. The retention time (RT), MS calculated, MS found, and full-length product purity (FLP) for each sequence (Seq X1.1-X4) were listed in Table 1. Table 1. Usage tests of GalNAc-conjugated phosphoramidites FT: Functional Test percentage (coupling efficiency) Example 12: Usage of GalNAc-conjugated Solid Supports in Oligonucleotide Synthesis [0157] To demonstrate the usage of novel GalNAc-conjugated solid supports in oligonucleotide synthesis, a sequence was designed for trails: 5’-TTTTTTTTTT-Y-3’, where Y represents GalNAc-conjugated solid supports. The following sequences were generated: Seq Y1, Seq Y2, Seq Y3, Seq Y4, and Seq Y5. [0158] Oligonucleotides (Seq Y1-Y5) were synthesized by solid-phase phosphoramidite method. A novel DMT-GalNAc conjugated solid support (Y) was packed in an empty column and put into the MerMade 6 synthesizer. The synthetic scale is 0.5-1 μmol. The oligonucleotide synthesis cycle includes the following steps:(1) detritylation with 3% trichloroacetic acid in dichloromethane for 45 seconds two times, followed by acetonitrile washing; (2) coupling with 0.1 M DMT-dT-CE-Phosphoramidite (5'-O-(4, 4'-Dimethoxytrityl)- thymidine-3'-cyanoethyl Phosphoramidite) in acetonitrile and 0.5 M activator (tetrazole in acetonitrile) for 1 minute two times, followed by acetonitrile washing; (3) oxidation with iodine (0.015 M iodine in water/pyridine/THF 2/20/78) for 45 second, followed by acetonitrile washing; and (4) capping with a mixture of acetic anhydride, pyridine, and THF for 45 second, followed by acetonitrile washing. Steps (1)-(4) were repeated 10 times for synthesizing a T10 elongated from the GalNAc conjugated solid support and finished by the final detritylation with acetonitrile washing. [0159] After synthesis, the oligonucleotide-bounded solid supports were treated with a 1:1 mixture of aqueous ammonia hydroxide and methylamine at 55瀽C for 2 hr for cleavage and deprotection. Upon completion, the liquid phase was collected and heat dried in vacuum.
