Definitions
- the present invention provides novel conjugates for use in targeting a selected agent, and particularly, a steroid, to vascular endothelial cells.
- These conjugate comprise two components preferably linked by a selectively-hydrolyzable bond, such as an acid-labile bond.
- a polyanionic compound such as a polyanionic polymer, which directs the conjugate to vascular endothelial cells
- a selected agent such as a steroid
- the invention provides nov conjugates that function as targeted angiogenesis inhibitors that are proposed for use in the treatment o pathological conditions such as cancer, arthritis, and diabetic blindness.
- Preferred inhibitors are those in which the polyanionic compound is a polysulfated polyme such as a heparin derivative, conjugated to a steroid with anti-angiogenic activity, such as cortisol, or derivatives and variants thereof.
- endothelial cell proliferation is a vital part of normal homeostatic mechanisms.
- a disturbance in this process can result in, for example, excessive or inappropriate endothelial cell proliferation or activation which is often associated with disease processes.
- the proliferation of vascular endothelial cells is vital to angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, which in turn, is associated with many disabling or life-threatening disorders. These include cancer (Algire et al .
- vascular endothelial cells divide about 35 times more rapidly than those in normal tissues, except the uterine epithelium (Denenka p & Hobson, 1982) . Such inappropriate proliferation is necessary for tumor growth and metastasis (Folkman, 1986) .
- Vascular endothelial cell growth and division is also important in chronic inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis and synovitis, where these cells proliferate in response to growth factors released within the inflammatory site (Brown & Weiss, 1988) .
- Atherosclerosis formation of the atherosclerotic plaque is triggered by a monoclonal expansion of endothelial cells in blood vessels (Alpern-Elran et al., 1989). Furthermore, in diabetic retinopathy, blindness is thought to be caused by basement membrane changes in the eye, which stimulate uncontrolled angiogenesis and consumption of the retina (West & Kumar, 1988) .
- Endothelial cells are also involved in graft rejection.
- endothelial cells express proadhesive determinants that direct leukocyte traffic to the site of the graft. It is believed that the induction of leukocyte adhesion molecules on the endothelial cells in the graft may be induced by locally-released cytokines, as is known to occur in an inflammatory lesion.
- angiogenesis inhibitors could potentially be of use in the treatment of those diseases, mentioned above, whose pathogenesis is influenced or maintained by the proliferation of vascular endothelial cells.
- Angiogenesis inhibitors would be particularly advantageous in the treatment of cancer, in which one of the current major problems is the emergence of drug- resistant malignant cells.
- anti- angiogenic therapy in the form of oral or subcutaneous administration of heparin and the steroid cortisone, has been reported to have an anti-tumor effect in mice bearing established tumors of various types (Folkman et al . , 1983). It was believed that the heparin, or heparin metabolites, acted together with the cortisone to inhibit angiogenesis and tumor growth.
- the synthetic heparin substitute, jS-cyclodextrin tetradecasulfate was reported to augment the anti-angiogenic effects of angiostatic steroids on corneal neovascularization in rabbits when applied locally or topically (Folkman et al . , 1989). It was suggested that the jS-cyclodextrin tetradecasulfate might act by forming a non-covalent complex with the steroid and promote its binding to the surface of endothelial cells.
- modulating endothelial cell activity include the treatment of inflammatory responses or the stimulation of growth and proliferation. In the latter instance, this would prove useful in stimulating blood vessel growth, for example, in wound repair after accidental injury or surgery, or in promoting the healing of gastrointestinal lesions such as ulcers.
- various steroids have potential for use in this area.
- the clinical use of many agents, including steroids, whether designed to be inhibitory or stimulatory, is often limited by their side effects and toxicities.
- steroids are known to have negative effects on bone and lymphoid tissues, which can reduce their overall dosages and their therapeutic effectiveness.
- steroid treatment is known to be associated with osteoporosis and immunosuppression.
- Most toxicity can generally be attributed to a lack of selective action, i.e. it is due to the tendency of the drug to exert its effects on cells indiscriminately.
- the present invention seeks to overcome these and other drawbacks inherent in the prior art by providing novel endothelial cell-targeted conjugates for the delivery of a selected agent, such as a steroid, to vascular endothelial cells.
- the targeting component of the conjugate is a polyanionic compound, such as a polyanionic polymer, and preferably a polysulfated polymer such as a heparin derivative, which is preferably linked to the selected agent by a selectively- hydrolyzable bond, for example, an acid-labile bond.
- the selected agent preferably a steroid, exerts its action on the target cells following release.
- the present invention provides conjugates that function as targeted inhibitors of angiogenesis, for use in the treatment of pathological conditions such as cancer, arthritis, and diabetic retinopathy.
- Particularly preferred inhibitors are those in which a heparin derivative is conjugated to a steroid with anti- angiogenic activity, such as cortisol, and derivatives and variants thereof.
- a key aspect of the present invention is the creation of an "endothelial cell-targeted conjugate".
- endothelial cell-targeted conjugate indicates that the conjugate selectively binds to vascular endothelial cells as opposed to other cell types except the cells of the reticuloendothelial system.
- Targeting of a compound in this manner is intended to refer to, not only the process by which the compound recognizes and binds to specific components of vascular endothelial cells, but also to its uptake by such cells.
- the "targeting component" of these novel conjugates is the component that directs the conjugate to its intended site of action, i.e. to vascular endothelial cells.
- the targeting component therefore controls the biodistribution of the conjugate, and as such, may be considered as a delivery vehicle for the selected agent of the conjugate.
- Targeting components of the present invention are defined in a general sense as polyanionic compounds, and more particularly, as polysulphated or polysulphonated compounds.
- the polyanionic compounds of the present invention may either be polymers themselves or may be smaller molecules such as monomers and dimers which are nevertheless polyanionic.
- Polyanionic refers to a co pound which has more than two anionic groups, and preferably, to a compound which has a larger number of such groups, such as, for example, in the order of about 4, 5 or 6 anionic groups up to about 9 or 10 anionic groups or more.
- the polyanionic compound is also a polymer, it may have a very large number of anionic moieties.
- Polyanionic non-polymeric compounds which are considered to be particularly useful are suramin and suramin derivatives and analogues. Other examples of such compounds include trypan blue and Evans blue dye.
- certain advantages may result from using a polyanionic small molecule rather than a polymer as the targeting agent in embodiments concerning the administration of a conjugate to an animal.
- Suramin is an angiostatic agent which has been used in the treatment and prophylaxis of trypanosomiasis caused by T. rhodesiense , T. hippicum and T. gambiense, and for the treatment of onchocerciasis and pemphigus. It has moderate antiviral activity, and has even been employed as an AIDS therapeutic and as an anti-cancer agent.
- Suramin can be prepared synthetically, as disclosed herein, or obtained from the CDC Drug Service, Centers for Disease Control, Atlanta GA 30333.
- both synthetic as well as naturally occurring polyanionic compounds and polymers will be useful in the present invention.
- the compound or polymer employed is biocompatible, i.e. that it does not cause any substantial adverse effects when administered to a human subject.
- Virtually all naturally occurring polysulfated polyanions will be suitable in this regard.
- Exemplary polymers useful in accordance with this invention will include both N- and O-sulfated polyanionic polysaccharides. Of these, the polysaccharides having free carboxyl groups are considered to be particularly useful because the carboxyl group can serve as a convenient attachment point for drugs and intermediate spacer groups.
- Such carboxyl-containing sulfated polysaccharides include heparin, heparan sulfate, chondroitin sulfate, dermatan sulfate, sulfated alginic acid and the like.
- N- and O-sulfated polyanionic polysaccharides lacking carboxyl groups could also be used in accordance herewith. These include polymers such as keratan sulfate, dextran sulfate, sulfated cyclodextrins, sulfated chitin, sulfated chitosan, pentosan polysulfate and the like.
- N- or O-sulfated can be de ivatized to introduce functional groups that can serve as attachment points for drugs, other selected agents, or intermediate spacer groups.
- polysaccharide-based polymers such as those described above
- synthetic organic polymers such as polystyrene sulfonate, sulfated polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl sulfate or even polyethylene sulfonate
- polyanionic polymers wherein the negatively charged moieties are sulfate or sulfonate groups.
- other negatively charged groups may be incorporated onto the polymer backbone, such as phosphate, or even carboxyl groups, and that such groups will suffice to achieve some degree of selective targeting.
- heparin As mentioned above, in certain preferred embodiments, the inventor contemplates the use of heparin as the targeting component of a given conjugate because it is readily available, relatively inexpensive, its chemistry and medicinal properties have been extensively studied.
- a non-anticoagulating derivative of heparin will be used.
- One of the physiological roles of heparin is to act as an anticoagulant, i.e. to inhibit the clotting reactions of the blood.
- a non-anticoagulating derivative is therefore a compound devoid or virtually devoid of this activity.
- the absence of anti-coagulant activity from the conjugate is considered to be advantageous as it will not perturb the physiological reactions occurring in the recipient, and hemorrhage is unlikely to be a problem with heparin-steroid treatment.
- Heparin can be converted to a virtually non fc anticoagulating form during the novel conjugation procedure described herein.
- the anti-coagulating activity of heparin is known to be associated in part with the carboxyl groups of the molecule, or more exactly, with the carboxyl groups of the glucuronic or iduronic residues within the heparin structure. These are precisely the groups that are modified on the initial derivatization of heparin to obtain a heparin hydrazide. Therefore, the modification of some or all of the heparin carboxyl groups is advantageous in two respects: it provides the platform for further condensation reactions to create a heparin conjugate, and it renders the heparin derivative virtually devoid of anti-coagulating activity.
- heparin conjugates prepared in accordance with preferred embodiments of the present invention will have less than 2.5%, and preferably, less than 1% of the anticoagulating activity of native (unmodified) heparin.
- a standard method for use in measuring the anticoagulant activity of a compound is to determine its ability to inhibit the coagulation of human plasma induced by Russell's viper venom. To conduct an assay of this kind, one would prepare a solution of the test compound in a suitable buffer, such as phosphate- buffered saline (PBS) , and mix with fresh citrated human plasma at 37°C in glass tubes.
- PBS phosphate- buffered saline
- Russell's viper venom e.g., Sigma# RVCL-1
- prewarmed CaCl 2 solution should be added, the contents mixed, incubated at 37°C, and the time taken for the plasma to clot determined.
- To calculate the % anticoagulant activity of a heparin derivative or conjugate one would compare the clotting time for plasma treated with that compound to the clotting time for plasma treated with native (unmodified) heparin which would, by definition, be 100%.
- a further aspect of this invention is to create a heparin conjugate in which the heparin derivative has one or more unmodified sulfate residues, i.e. a heparin derivative in which one or more of the naturally-occurring sulfate residues remain unchanged during the preparation of the conjugate.
- the conjugation procedure described herein is conducted so that the sulfate residues remain unaltered and can direct the binding of the conjugate to the sulfated polyanion receptors.
- a targeted conjugate to bind to vascular endothelial cells during its construction, so long as one does not radically modify the sulfate groups of the molecule.
- a binding assay To conveniently perform such an assay, one would label the conjugate, for example with a radiolabel, and determine its ability to bind to vascular endothelial cells in culture, such as human umbilical vein endothelial (HUVE) cells. This would be achieved by incubating the cells with the conjugate in a medium to allow binding, removing any unbound conjugate by washing, and then measuring the cell-associated label, i.e. the cell-associated radioactivity. One could compare the binding of the test conjugate with that of native targeting molecule, for example, heparin.
- HUVE human umbilical vein endothelial
- selected agent is used herein simply to refer to the component of the conjugate, other than the targeting component, which is delivered to the endothelial cells by the targeting component.
- Possible selected agents include radioisotopes, drugs which inhibit or promote DNA synthesis, drugs which suppress or enhance gene transcription, drugs which affect cell surface functions and, indeed, any agent that one may wish to target to an endothelial cell.
- Pharmacological agents considered to be of particular use include those which, for example, are known to either stimulate or inhibit cellular proliferation.
- Pharmacological agents of this kind include ionophores, antimetabolites, autacoids, vinca alkaloids, epipodophyllotoxins, alkylating agents, antibiotic chemotherapeutic agents (see Table I) , and in preferred embodiments, steroids, which are considered to be particularly useful as selected agents in conjugates of the present invention.
- the present invention provides conjugates that function as inhibitors of angiogenesis, i.e. that act to inhibit the growth of blood vessels.
- a pharmacological agent with anti- angiogenic activity such as a steroid.
- suitable steroids for use in these embodiments include those in Table II and derivatives thereof.
- the steroid cortisol is preferred because it is inexpensive, is straightforward to conjugate to heparin derivatives, and, when thus conjugated, efficiently inhibits angiogenesis.
- anti-angiogenic (or angiostatic) steroid arose following studies on steroids lacking significant glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid activity, such as tetrahydro S, that inhibited angiogenesis under certain conditions.
- any steroid with proven, or even possible, anti-angiogenic activity may be coupled to heparin to form a conjugate, the anti-angiogenic properties of which canthen be examined.
- various steroids which have previously been associated with adverse clinical effects may now be used advantageously in the inhibition of angiogenesis.
- the present invention contemplates targeted conjugates that function as promoters of angiogenesis for use in stimulating blood vessel growth.
- selected agents or drugs that might be used in this way include phorbol esters, adenosine, inosine, hypoxanthine, nicotinamide, prostaglandin E2, and calcium ionophores such as nimodipine. It is envisioned that such conjugates would be of use in the treatment of conditions and diseases wherein a limited blood supply poses a problem, for example in the treatment of placental insufficiency, or the healing of gastric ulcers, or in the stimulation of wound repair.
- the components of the novel conjugates may be linked by a disulfide or trisulfide bond thus: polyanionic compound-S-S-(S)-selected agent, for example, heparin-S-S-S-calicheamicin.
- the bond between the targeting component and the selected agent of the conjugates will be a selectively-hydrolyzable bond.
- selectively- hydrolyzable bond refers to a bond which is stable unless exposed to particular conditions, i.e. unless placed within a certain environment or in contact with a particular agent. Such bonds include, for example, acid-labile and enzyme-sensitive bonds.
- the "environment” or “agent” capable of inducing hydrolysis is an acidic pH, and a specific enzyme, respectively.
- Such selective-release design features allow the conjugates to remain intact whilst in the blood stream or other extracellular environments, and to be hydrolyzed only following binding to, or uptake into, vascular endothelial cells.
- the selectively-hydrolyzable bond of the conjugate will be an acid-labile bond.
- the term "acid-labile” is intended to refer to a conjugate (or the bond joining the two components of the conjugate) that is hydrolyzed simply by exposure to an acidic environment, and particularly, by exposure to an environment with a pH of 4.8 or lower.
- Conjugates with a half life of between 10 minutes and 24 hours, and preferably of between 15 minutes and 2 hours, in dilute solutions of 50 mM or less at 20°C and pH 4.8 are particularly preferred.
- An accompanying property of such conjugates is their stability at near-neutral pHs.
- stable at near-neutral pHs is herein intended to refer to a conjugate that is not substantially hydrolysed at pHs in the range of pH 7.4 to pH 7.6.
- conjugates having less than 50%, and preferably, less than 10% breakdown after 24 hours in dilute solutions of 50 mM or less at 20°C and pH 7.4 are also particularly preferred.
- a useful method for analyzing the pH stability of a conjugate is to examine its UV spectrum over a pH range.
- the dissociation of the conjugate is determined by measuring the appearance of free cortisol, which is known to have a maximum at 242 nm.
- the UV spectrum (from 400nm to 200nm) of the conjugate in distilled water may be scanned, then the pH of the conjugate solution made more acidic and the UV spectrum repeatedly re- scanned, whilst keeping the temperature constant.
- the half-life of the decomposition can be calculated as the time for the OD at 274 nm to decay to half its initial value.
- the % breakdown of the conjugate at a given time can be calculated as the % of free cortisol which has formed over the time period, with time 0 taken as 0% breakdown.
- Typical acid-labile linkages believed to be useful in connection with the present invention include those that employ a Schiff's base linkage, for example, linkages incorporating the condensation product of an aldehyde or ketone with a hydrazine, a hydrazide, a primary or secondary amine or their derivatives.
- a particularly preferred Schiff's base linkage for use in accordance herewith is an acyl hydrazone bond, formed when a hydrazide derivative of heparin, or other polyanionic compound or polymer, is condensed with a selected agent containing a ketone or aldehyde group. It is proposed that the heparin or other polyanionic compound or polymer can be derivatised to introduce hydrazide-terminating side chains of various lengths.
- the simplest hydrazide-terminating side chain contemplated has the structure:
- R polyanionic compound or polymer
- R polyanionic compound or polymer
- the selectively-hydrolyzable bond of the conjugate will be an enzyme-sensitive bond.
- enzyme-sensitive is intended to refer to a conjugate (or the bond joining the two components of the conjugate) that is hydrolyzed by exposure to a specific enzyme. Examples of such bonds include esters, peptides, amides, phosphodiesters, and even glycosidic bonds, which are hydrolysed by exposure to an esterase, protease or peptidase, amidase, phosphodiesterase and glycosidase, respectively.
- an enzyme-sensitive bond one will generally desire to avoid such bonds that could be hydrolysed by exposure to components normally present in the blood stream, such as certain esters.
- conjugates could be engineered that are hydrolysed only by exposure to an enzyme known to have a precise cellular location, including enzymes associated with the plasma membrane, the endocytotic vesicles and the lysosomes.
- Various side chains of a single polyanionic targeting molecule can be modified by the addition of a selected agent to create a conjugate in accordance with the present invention.
- the molar ratios of selected agent to targeting component in a given conjugate can therefore lie between 0.1:1 and 80:1, depending on the particular polyanionic compound or polymer and selected agent utilized.
- molar ratios of greater than one, and preferably, of greater than 5:1 are contemplated.
- the present invention further provides a method for preparing an endothelial cell-targeted polyanionic compound or polymer conjugate comprising the following steps:
- the polyanionic compound used to form the targeting component of the conjugate will be a polymer, preferably heparin, and even more preferably, it will high molecular weight heparin, e.g. with a molecular weight on the order of 5,000 to 25,000.
- a smaller polyanionic molecule such as suramin may be employed.
- Particularly preferred derivatizing agents for use in accordance with the above method are hydrazine and hydrazide derivatives. In using such agents for the preparation of a heparin conjugate, the initial step in the procedure is the creation of a heparin hydrazide, using an excess of water soluble carbodiimide, such as EDC, at an acidic pH.
- the initial derivatization can be achieved by carrying out the reaction in a similar manner to that described for the synthesis of heparinylglycine (Danishefsky & Siskovic, 1971) .
- adipic dihydrazide To condense heparin with adipic dihydrazide one would prepare a sample of high molecular weight heparin at an appropriate concentration, such as lOmg/ml, and add adipic dihydrazide to a final concentration of approximately 0.5M.
- the pH of the solution should then be adjusted to, for example, about pH 4.75 by the addition of a suitable acid, such as IM HCl.
- a suitable acid such as IM HCl.
- EDC l-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-carbodiimide
- IM HCl a freshly prepared solution of EDC (l-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-carbodiimide) in water was added to give a final EDC concentration of approximately 10.7 mg/ l, and allow the reaction to proceed at room temperature while maintaining the pH at approximately 4.75 by the periodic addition of, for example, IM HCl.
- pH stabilization -2-3 hours
- the mixture should be kept at 4°C for a longer period of time, such as 48 hours, and then dialyzed extensively into ImM HCl, for example, using four changes of dialyzate over 4 days.
- a suitable buffer such as 0.1M sodium acetate
- the inventor contemplates that other methods of derivatizing a polyanionic compound or polymer, such as heparin, to permit the subsequent attachment of a selected agent having a free aldehyde or ketone group will also be suitable.
- the initial derivatization can take advantage of available - COOH groups, such as those of the iduronic or glucuronic acid residues of heparin, as in the following condensation reactions which might, for example, employ a carbodiimide as the condensing agent:
- VVVVcan be any aliphatic or aromatic intermediate grouping, such as (CH 2 ) n , (CH 2 0) n ,
- derivatization reactions involving - NH-CO-CH 3 are also contemplated to be of use in accordance with the present invention.
- groups can be found on the sugar residues of polyanionic compounds and polymers, such as the W-acetylglucosamine groups of heparin.
- one would first partially or completely deacetylate such groups for example, using an acid- or base- catalysed reaction, or by hydrazinolysis in aqueous hydrazine containing 1% hydrazine sulfate (as represented below) .
- Selected agents containing, for example, a ketone or aldehyde, a carboxyl group, a sulfonic acid group or derivatives thereof such as carboxylic anhydrides or sulfonyl halides could then be reacted with the amine groups of the polyanionic compound or polymer.
- these groups can also be derivatized. Firstly, one would partially or completely de-N-sulfate, for example, using dimethylsulfoxide containing 5% H 2 0 or MeOH at 20°C - 50°C (as represented below) .
- Selected agents containing, for example, a ketone or aldehyde, a carboxyl group, a sulfonic acid group or derivatives thereof such as carboxylic anhydrides or sulfonyl halides could then be reacted with the amine groups of the polyanionic compound or polymer.
- the compound or polymer could again be reacted with selected agents containing, for example, an aldehyde or ketone, a carboxylic group, a sulfonic acid group or derivatives thereof such as carboxylic anhydrides or sulfonyl halides.
- selected agents containing, for example, an aldehyde or ketone, a carboxylic group, a sulfonic acid group or derivatives thereof such as carboxylic anhydrides or sulfonyl halides.
- heparin-agent conjugate To create a covalently bonded heparin-agent conjugate, one would form a reaction mixture by adding a solution of an agent with one or more free aldehyde or ketone groups, such as a steroid, to the heparin- hydrazide to give an appropriate final concentration, for example, in the case of a steroid, of approximately 3 to 4 mg/ml steroid. Incubation of this reaction mixture at a temperature of, for example, between 15°C and 60 ⁇ C, leads to the formation of the heparin-steroid conjugate product. A suitable period of time for this incubation is considered to be between approximately 1 hour and 14 days, depending on the reactivity of the steroid.
- an agent with one or more free aldehyde or ketone groups such as a steroid
- the product can be stabilized by adjusting the pH to -pH 10 with a suitable alkali, such as IM NaOH, and then dialyzing extensively into water whose pH has been adjusted to 10.
- a suitable alkali such as IM NaOH
- the dialyzed product can be freeze-dried and placed in a desiccator at 4°C.

- a particularly important aspect of the present invention is the use of targeted conjugates as inhibitors of angiogenesis in the treatment of various conditions including cancer, arthritis, and diabetic retinopathy.
- the present invention concerns a method for introducing a steroid to a vascular endothelial cell. To accomplish this, one would simply prepare an endothelial cell-targeted steroid conjugate, as described above, and allow vascular endothelial cells to be exposed to the conjugate.

The degree of wound repair is determined in the presence and absence of an endothelial cell-targeted steroid conjugate, and the two values compared. After wounding, the onolayer cultures are incubated at 37°C for a period sufficient to allow repair, such as 5 days, and their appearance, with and without the conjugate, is compared.
- vascular endothelial cells in vitro, for example, in tissue culture, or in vivo.
- all that is required is to simply add the conjugate to the culture medium.
- Cultured endothelial cells are readily available and include, for example, human umbilical vein endothelial (HUVE) and murine pulmonary capillary endothelial (MPCE) cells.
- HUVE human umbilical vein endothelial
- MPCE murine pulmonary capillary endothelial
- a conjugate provides an effective means of treatment.
- the direct effects of a conjugate on vascular endothelial cells, such as inhibition of DNA synthesis, are more difficult to measure from experiments conducted in vivo.
- several assays are available to analyze the effects on the physiological processes occurring.
- One assay which gives an indication of vascular endothelial cell DNA synthesis, proliferation and migration is to examine the vascularization of implanted material, such as a sponge.
- implanted material such as a sponge.
- an experimental animal for example, a mouse
- an experimental animal for example, a mouse
- an appropriate site such as into a subcutaneous pouch
- an appropriate site such as into a subcutaneous pouch
- an assess vascularization of the sponge one would anaesthetize the animal, inject a sterile solution of a non-metabolizable labeled compound, such as 133 Xe in saline, into the sponge via the cannula and then plug the cannula to prevent escape of the labeled compound.
- the radioactivity would then be measured, for example, using a collimated gamma scintillation detector situated 1cm above the sponge.
- the present invention contemplates the clinical use of endothelial cell targeted steroid conjugates to treat several human diseases.
- administering a conjugate of the present invention to an animal provides a means for either inhibiting, or stimulating, angiogenesis, i.e. for reducing or increasing the number of blood vessels and the blood supply to an area of the body.
- Inhibition of angiogenesis is an effective method by which to treat various diseases which are caused or perpetuated by an inappropriate blood vessel growth.

- Excessive or inappropriate endothelial cell' proliferation or activation can contribute to the cause or maintenance of several disease processes. This includes angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, which is associated with many disabling or life- threatening disorders in adults.
- pathological conditions include cancer, diabetic retinopathy, atherosclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, synovitis, psoriasis, dermatitis, encephalitis and tonsillitis.
- Disturbed endothelial cell processes are also involved in inflammatory lesions and graft rejection, where the endothelial cells express proadhesive determinants that direct leukocyte traffic to the area.
- angiogenesis inhibitors could be used in the treatment of those diseases, mentioned above, which are at least partially dependent on the aberrant proliferation of vascular endothelial cells. Such inhibitors would be particularly useful in the treatment of cancer, arthritis and diabetic retinopathy.
- a variety of pharmacologic agents are known which exhibit anticellular, antiproliferative or anti- inflammatory actions, and could potentially be of use in the treatment of one or more conditions involving epithelial cell growth or activation.
- these agents particularly antiproliferative agents, exhibit profound side effects and toxicities which can limit their overall dosages or therapeutic regimens. Most toxicity can be attributed generally to a lack of selective action.
- angiostatic steroids such as cortisol, hydrocortisone, dexamethasone, and the like, are attractive agents for potential use in anti- angiogenic therapy, they induce side effects such as osteoporosis and immunosuppression which reduce their clinical usefulness.
- the targeting of drugs to specific sites within the body may be able to reduce their toxic effects on other syste s.
- One approach to the cell specific targeting of drugs has been the formation of antibody-drug conjugates, wherein the antibody directs the associated drug or toxin to a target cell such as a tumor having a cell surface antigen marker.
- a variety of tumor-directed antibody- drug conjugates have been prepared and tested for use as potential therapeutic agents, such as in the treatment of cancer.
- most drugs conjugated with antibodies, other than immunoconjugates of highly cytotoxic moieties such as ricin A chain molecules have met with little success.
- Liposomal encapsulation constitutes another means of altering the pharmacologic properties of a drug, including altered biodistribution and reduced toxicity.
- Liposomal encapsulation involves the incorporation of molecules of the drug into a "capsule" of lipid materials, usually composed of uni- or multilamellar vesicles of various phospholipids.
- lipid materials usually composed of uni- or multilamellar vesicles of various phospholipids.
- liposome stability is a function of a variety of parameters such as drug lipophilicity and other structural consideration.
- liposomal encapsulation has not proved to be applicable to a broad spectrum of agents.
- the ability of liposomal encapsulation to alter biodistribution is unpredictable at best.
- the present invention is directed to developing new conjugates for use in targeting a compound or drug to vascular endothelial cells.
- the conjugates of the present invention were designed to have two components linked by a selectively-hydrolyzable bond, such as an acid-labile or enzyme-sensitive bond.
- the function of the first component would be to specifically direct the conjugate to the target tissue, i.e. to the vascular endothelial cells.
- the second component is a selected agent, for example, a steroid, which would exert its effects only on the target cells following its release from the targeting moiety at the cell surface or within intracellular compartments.
- the targeting of the novel conjugates specifically to endothelial cells is an important feature of the conjugates. This would enable various selected agents, including steroids, to be used whilst avoiding possible side-effects associated with their action on tissues other than the desired target tissue. This is a common occurrence, for example, the use of steroids is associated with adverse effects on bone metabolism and the immune system.
- Compounds considered to be of use in targeting to vascular endothelial cells were naturally occurring and synthetic polyanionic compounds and polymers, and more particularly, polysulphated compounds and polymers. Small polyanionic molecules of this kind are particularly exemplified by suramin and analogues and derivatives of suramin.
- Polymers of this kind ' include both N- and O-sulfated polyanionic polysaccharides such as heparin, heparan sulfate, chondroitin sulfate, keratan sulfate, dermatan sulfate, sulfated chitin, sulfated chitosan, sulfated alginic acid, pentosan polysulfate and sulfated cyclodextrins or the like, or synthetic organic polymers such as polystyrene sulfonate, sulfated polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl sulfate or polyethylene sulfonate.
- polyanionic polysaccharides such as heparin, heparan sulfate, chondroitin sulfate, keratan sulfate, dermatan sulfate, sulfated chitin, sulfated chi
- Suramin may be prepared as follows: 8-Amino-l,3,5- naphthalenetrisulfonic acid is condensed with m-nitro-p- toluoyl chloride in the presence of sodium acetate. The resulting nitro compound is reduced, and the amino derivative is condensed with m-nitrobenzoyl chloride; the product is reduced to the corresponding amino compound which is then reacted with carbonyl chloride in the ratio of two moles of the former to one of the latter. The suramin acid thus obtained is neutralized with NaOH to produce the sodium salt. Alternatively, it may be obtained from the CDC Drug Service, Centers for Disease Control, Atlanta GA 30333.
- Suramin is known to be suitable for administration to humans as it has been used in the treatment and prophylaxis of trypanosomiasis, and in the treatment of onchocerciasis, pemphigus, and in some cases, in the treatment of cancer and AIDS.
- the preferred mode of administering a suramin-containing conjugate is contemplated to be by intravenous injection. From studies on the treatment of infectious diseases it is known that doses of 1 g per day administered on five days over a three week period are well tolerated by adults. Being a small molecule, it is considered that a conjugate containing suramin, or a derivative thereof, will likely be less immunogenic than a conjugate containing a polymer, and such conjugates may thus have some advantages as therapeutic agents in certain settings.
- the component chosen to target the conjugates to the vascular epithelium was high molecular weight heparin. It was reasoned that a heparin derivative with intact O- or tf-linked sulfate groups would bind to sulfated polyanion (heparin) receptors which are present on vascular endothelial cells (Florey et al., 1959; Hiebert & Jacques, 1976; Mahadoo et al . , 1977; Barzu et al . , 1985; 1986; Pino, 1987; Van Rijn et al . , 1987) and on cells of the reticuloendothelial system (Schaefer et al., 1980; Stau et al . , 1973; Fabian et al . , 1978) .
- the inventor also proposes to utilize a non- anticoagulating derivative of heparin, which would allow the normal clotting actions of the blood to occur. From structure-activity studies, distinct elements within the heparin molecule have been identified as being responsible for its various properties. The anti- coagulating a ⁇ tivity has been shown to reside within the carboxyl groups of the first seven sugar moieties. Therefore the inventor proposed to modify such carboxyl groups whilst leaving the sulphate residues intact.
- agents could be specifically delivered to vascular endothelial cells using a polyanionic targeting component as described above, including radioisotopes and drugs which inhibit or promote DNA synthesis or gene transcription.
- Particularly useful agents for conjugation include those which, for example, either stimulate or inhibit cellular proliferation.
- Pharmacological agents of this kind include ionophores, antimetabolites, autacoids, vinca alkaloids, epipodophyllotoxins, alkylating agents, phorbol esters, prostaglandins, antibiotic chemotherapeutic agents, and in preferred embodiments, steroids, which are considered to be particularly useful as selected agents in the endothelial cell-targeted conjugates of the present invention.
- Certain aspects of the present invention are particularly concerned with the creation of novel conjugates that can function as inhibitors of angiogenesis, for use in the treatment of diseases which depend on the inappropriate growth of blood vessels.
- an angiogenesis inhibitor the inventor first chose an anti-angiogenic steroid, such as cortisol (hydrocortisone) . It was reasoned that the steroidal component of the conjugated inhibitor would act to specifically inhibit the proliferation of the vascular endothelial cells, without otherwise damaging them. For example, cortisol would inhibit DNA synthesis,, by altering gene transcription, and thereby suppress cell division.
- the present invention provides a means for limiting their effects specifically to such cells. Any undesirable effects on other tissues, such as bone and lymph, would be minimized by their limited exposure to the compound.
- the inhibitors it was contemplated that dividing vascular endothelial cells may also preferentially bind and endocytose more of the conjugate, as had been observed for unconjugated heparin (Sakamoto & Tanaka, 1988) .
- the bond joining the two components of these novel targeted conjugates was designed to be a selectively- hydrolyzable bond, such as an acid-labile or enzyme- sensitive bond. It was reasoned that the presence of such a bond would allow the generally-stable conjugate to be hydrolysed only under certain conditions, such as on exposure to an acidic pH or to a specific enzyme. This was considered to be a particularly important feature of the conjugates, enabling them to be stable whilst in the blood stream or other extracellular environments, and allowing hydrolysis and the release of the selected agent only inside the target cells.
- a variety of acid-labile bonds could be employed to join the targeting component of a conjugate to the selected agent.
- the inventor chose to utilize hydrazide linkers of the formulae:
- hydrazide linkers in conjugates is believed to provide certain advantages.
- related heparin-steroid conjugates with linkers of different length i.e. with differing numbers of CH 2 groups, could be prepared using the same synthetic protocol. This may influence the rate of conjugate hydrolysis and allow one to engineer conjugates with different rates of release from the intracellular compartments, allowing a degree of control over the concentrations of active steroids in the cell.
- conjugates with an enzyme-sensitive bond such as an ester, a peptide, an amide, a phosphodiester or a glycoside will provide certain advantages.
- this class of conjugates would be hydrolysed only by exposure to the specific enzyme, i.e. to an esterase, peptidase, an amidase, a phosphodiesterase or a glycosidase, this may allow conjugates to be engineered that are hydrolysed only at the endothelial cell surface, or within the precise intracellular compartments where the specific enzymes are located.
- heparin-cortisol inhibitor had all the properties that were desired by the inventor. Namely, it inhibited DNA synthesis and migration of vascular endothelial cells in vitro, it retarded the vascularization of sponges implanted into mice, and it significantly inhibited the growth of solid Lewis lung carcinomas in mice.
- the activity of the heparin-cortisol conjugate exceeded that of a mixture of its components showing that, as reasoned beforehand, chemical linkage of the components improved the biological activity of the conjugate.
- the heparin-cortisol conjugate was constructed by first condensing the carboxyl groups of accessible glucuronic acid and iduronic acid residues in heparin with adipic dihydrazide. This resulted in the introduction of hydrazide groups into heparin which, on mixing with cortisol, condensed with the ketone group on C3 of the steroid to form a conjugate in which the heparin and the steroid were joined by an acyl hydrazone bond. This bond was stable at pH 7.4 but, as required, allowed the rapid dissociation of the conjugate at pH 4.8.
- the first destination of the conjugate following internalization would be the acidified endosomes and lysosomes, which, with a pH of -4.8, would promote the rapid release of the steroid.
- Heparin-cortisol inhibited DNA synthesis in cultured proliferating vascular endothelial cells at lower concentrations than did a mixture of its components. In addition, it delayed the repair of wounded HUVE monolayers, suggesting that, in addition to inhibiting cell proliferation, it inhibited endothelial cell migration. These two effects may explain why total abolition of vascularization was observed in sponges injected with heparin-cortisol. Vascularization is a complex process requiring both the migration of vascular endothelial cells into the sponge and then proliferation to enable the capillary sprout to elongate. Administration of unconjugated mixtures of heparin and cortisol, or heparin hydrazide and cortisol, did not affect vascularization of sponges.
- mice bearing solid Lewis lung carcinomas also resulted in statistically significant anti-tumor effects.
- Heparin- cortisol-treated mice showed a reduction in tumor mass of approximately 65% relative to that in untreated controls, and of approximately 40% relative to that in recipients of unconjugated heparin hydrazide and cortisol.
- a conjugate of heparin-adipic hydrazide and tetrahydro S was even more effective than was heparin-cortisol at inhibiting proliferation of vascular endothelial cells, indicating that the inhibitory effects of heparin-adipic hydrazide-cortisol are independent of the glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid activities of the steroid.
- Tetrahydro S and related steroids offer certain advantages for use as conjugates in vivo . Being metabolically inert in all but angiostasis assays, they should not cause the toxic side effects (e.g. osteoporosis) associated with long term corticosteroid therapy.
- heparin-adipic hydrazide conjugates Long term treatment with heparin-adipic hydrazide conjugates is likely to be necessary in tumor therapy to suppress the outgrowth of dormant tumor cells.
- heparin-tetrahydro S inhibited DNA synthesis more potently and completely than did heparin-cortisol, suggesting that it should be a better anti-tumor agent in vivo .
- tetrahydro S and related steroids lack a C3 ketone by which they can be conjugated efficiently to heparin-adipic hydrazide.
- Conjugation can be achieved through the C20 ketone, although this gives a lower yield (0.5 mol steroid per mol heparin-adipic hydrazide) than does cortisol conjugation (5 - 8 mol steroid per mol heparin-adipic hydrazide) .
- the inventor is presently developing new, more efficient methods for forming heparin-adipic hydrazide-tetrahydro S.
- Conjugates of the present invention are also contemplated to be of use in research, for example, in investigating events such as the targeting, binding and uptake of polyanionic compounds or polymers, or in analyzing the specific effects of various components, including steroids, on endothelial cells. This includes analyzing the proliferation and migration of endothelial cells in experimental animals treated with certain conjugates, and also, investigating the in vivo expression, and particularly, the cell surface expression, of various molecules induced by such treatment.
- novel conjugates of the present invention may be administered alone or in combination with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, in either single or multiple doses.
- suitable pharmaceutical carriers include inert solid diluents or fillers, sterile aqueous solution and various organic solvents.
- the pharmaceutical compositions formed by combining a conjugate of the present invention and the pharmaceutically acceptable carriers are then easily administered in a variety of dosage forms such as injectable solutions, slow-release biodegradable capsules, and the like.
- solutions of the conjugates in sesame or peanut oil, aqueous propylene glycol, or in sterile aqueous solution may be employed.
- aqueous solutions should be suitably buffered if necessary and the liquid diluent first rendered isotonic with sufficient saline or glucose.
- sterile aqueous media which can be employed will be known to those of skill in the art in light of the present disclosure.

- Polyether-polyurethane sponge (VP 5) was a gift from Mr. M. Robinson, Vitafoam Ltd., Ashton-under- Lyne, U.K. Disks of diameter 0.8cm were cut from sheets of the sponge using a cork-borer.
- the concentration of heparin solutions was determined by using a modification of the carbazole assay described by Bitter & Muir (1962) . Briefly, the heparin solutions to be analyzed were diluted until their approximate concentration was in the range of 25-
- heparin concentrations were calculated by comparing the optical densities of duplicate samples of the test solutions with those of standards prepared from heparin solutions having concentrations ranging from 0 to 250 ⁇ g/ml.
- Hydrazine (1.567 ml) was made up to 50 ml with IM HCl, adjusted to pH 4.75 with IM NaOH, and diluted to 100 ml. 20 ml of this solution was added to 200 mg of heparin, which dissolved on shaking. EDC in water (4 ml) was added to the hydrazine-heparin solution (20 ml) to give a EDC concentration of 10.7 mg/ml. The solution was adjusted at intervals to pH 4.75, dialyzed twice in ImM HCl and once in 0.05M borate solution with NaCl (1.7% w/v) , and then three times in distilled water and was freeze dried. 4. condensation of Heparin and Succinic Dihydrazide.
- a solution of heparin (100 mg/ml) in distilled water was filtered through a column of sepharose S200 (5 x 60 cm) to remove low molecular weight heparin present in this material.
- the fractions containing the highest molecular weight components were pooled until 70% of the heparin applied to the column had been recovered, and the lower molecular weight fractions were discarded.
- Heparin was then condensed with succinic dihydrazide in a similar manner to that described for the synthesis of heparinylglycine (Danishefsky & Siskovic, 1971) .
- the concentrate was adjusted to 10 mg/ml and adipic dihydrazide was added to a final concentration of 0.5M.

- the retentate was then freeze dried.
- heparin Low molecular weight heparin was removed from a solution of heparin (10 mg/ml) in distilled water by passing through an Amicon ultrafiltration cell fitted with a YM30 membrane until 30% of the heparin appeared in the filtrate. Heparin was then condensed with adipic dihydrazide in a similar manner to that described for the synthesis of heparinylglycine (Danishefsky & Siskovic, 1971) . The concentrate was adjusted to 10 mg/ml and adipic dihydrazide was added to a final concentration of 0.5M. The pH of the solution was adjusted to 4.75 using IM HCl. A freshly prepared solution of EDC in water was added to give a final EDC concentration of 10.7 mg/ml.
- the reaction was allowed to proceed at room temperature whilst maintaining the pH at 4.75 ( ⁇ 0.02) by the periodic addition of IM HCl.
- the pH had stabilized (2-3 hours)
- the mixture was kept at 4°C for 48 hours and was then dialyzed (using tubing have a K. cut-off of 3500) into ImM HCl in water at 4°C with four changes of dialysis buffer over 4 days.
- the dialyzed solution was again extensively dialyzed into deionized water at room temperature.
- the resulting aqueous solution was freeze-dried and was stored in desiccator at 4°C.
- Daunomycin and carminomycin contain amino sugars which interact electrostatically with heparin and cause a precipitate to form. To avoid this, the amino group was first converted to the cis-aconityl derivative which is removed at acidic pH (i.e., at the same time as the conjugated drug dissociates from the heparin carrier) .
- Daunomycin or carminomycin (20 mg) were dissolved in 4 ml of 0.05M sodium borate buffer, pH 9, and stored on ice. To this solution were dropwise added 200 ⁇ l of a freshly-prepared solution of cis-aconitic anhydride (30 mg/ml) in dry dioxan. The reaction was allowed to proceed for 10 minutes on ice and then for a further 10 inutes at room temperature. Thin layer chromatography on silican plates run in 3:1 ethanol:H 2 0 revealed that >90% of the daunomycin and carminomycin had been converted to their cis-aconityl derivatives having R f values of 0.75 as compared with 0.05 for the unreacted drugs.
- the acid liability of the introduced cis-aconityl protecting group was confirmed by mixing the cis-aconityl carminomycin with an equal volume of IM sodium acetate buffer, pH 4.3. Samples were run on silica TLC plates in MeOH. The half life of dissociation of the derivatives back to native drugs was approximately 60 minutes under these conditions.
- Heparin adipic hydrazide (46.1 mg) was dissolved in 3 ml of 0.5M sodium acetate buffer, pH 6.0. To this solution was added 0.68 ml of a 9 mM solution of cis- aconityl drug in dry dioxan. The solutions were mixed and allowed to react for 24 hours at room temperature. The solutions were then applied to columns of Sephadex G25 equilibrated in H 2 0 whose pH had been raised to 9 with dilute NaOH.
- void volume peak was collected and freeze dried.
- Spectrophotometric (u.v) quantitation of the coupled drugs together with measurements of heparin concentration by carbazole assay gave the drug:heparin ratios as 1.6 mol:mol for daunomycin and 0.6:1 for carminomycin.
- Heparin adipic hydrazide 70 mg was dissolved in 6 ml of 0.1M sodium phosphate buffer, pH 5.8. Mithramycin (10 mg) was dissolved in 1 ml dimethylformamide and this solution was mixed with the heparin adipic hydrazide solution and left for 2% days at room temperature. The reaction mixture was then applied to a column of Sephadex G25 equilibrated in H 2 0 whose pH had been raised to approximately 10 by the addition of dilute NaOH. The conjugate, which elated in the void volume, was collected and freeze dried.
- the conjugate (Table III) predominantly has the structure shown in Fig. 3 in which the aminopterin is linked through its ⁇ COOH group to the heparin derivative.
- W-hydroxysuccinimide ester of aminopterin was prepared as above.
- To 10.2 ml of a 23 mM solution of the aminopterin derivative (0.236 mmol) in dimethylformamide were added 104 mg (0.236 mmol) of solid L-Leu-L-Ala-L-Leu-L-Ala (LALA) .
- the mixture was stirred overnight at 50°C during which time the solid LALA dissolved.
- To the reaction mixture was added 48.7 mg (0.236 mmol) of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide in 0.58 ml of dimethylformamide. Copious quantities of urea formed within 2 hours at room temperature and were removed by filtration.
- the conjugate probably contained different species depending on which carboxyl group was esterified with 27-hydroxysuccinimide at each stage of the reaction. However, the predominant reaction is with the most reactive and accessible carboxyl group. Thus, the conjugate (Table III) should predominantly have the structure shown in Fig. 4.
- Heparin derivatives have also been conjugated to other selected agents, including 3-(2-pyridyldithio) propionic acid (PDP) , biotin and ricin A chain, as represented below:
- PDP 3-(2-pyridyldithio) propionic acid
- the PDP derivative was prepared by treating 5 ml of a solution of heparin adipic hydrazide (5 mg/ml) in 0.05M sodium borate butter, pH 9, with 0.2 ml of a solution of N-hydroxysuccinimidyl 3-(2-pyridyldithio)propionate (SPDP, Pharmacia Ltd.) (5.2 mg/ml) dissolved in dry dimethylformamide. The reaction was allowed to proceed for one hour at room temperature and the heparin derivative was then dialyzed into water. Quantitation of the introduced dithiopyridyl groups by the method of Carlsson et al . (Biochem. J. 173, 723, 1978) and of the heparin by carbazole assay gave the molar ratio of dithiopyridyl groups:heparin as 1*2:1.
- the biotin derivative of heparin adipic hydrazide was prepared by treating 1 ml of a solution of heparin adipic hydrazide (5 mg/ml) in 0.05M sodium borate buffer, pH 9, with 0.2 ml of a solution of N-hydroxysuccinimidyl biotin a idocaproate (3.8 mg/ml) dissolved in dry dimethylformamide. The reaction was allowed to proceed for one hour at room temperature and the heparin-biotin conjugate was then dialyzed into water.
- Ricin A-chain was conjugated to heparin adipic hydrazide by mixing 5 ml of a 1 mg/ml solution of PDP- heparin (prepared as above) with 10 mg of freshly-reduced ricin A-chain in phosphate-buffered saline, pH 7.4. The thiol-disulfide exchange reaction leading to conjugation was allowed to proceed for 24 hours. The conjugate was fractionated on a column (2.2 x 80 cm) of Sephadex G75 and the leading edge of the major protein band which eluted was collected.
- a solution of heparin adipic hydrazide (1.0 mg/ml) 5 in 0.025M sodium acetate buffer pH 3.0 was prepared.
- a solution of the steroid in ethanol was added to give a final molar excess of steroid over hydrazide groups of 10-fold, and a final ethanol concentration of 30% (v/v) .
- the steroid and the heparin adipic hydrazide were allowed 10 to react at different temperatures and for different periods of time depending on the reactivity of the ketone groups of the steroid.
- the reaction conditions were:
- the pH of the mixture was adjusted to pH 10 with 10M NaOH.
- the heparin-steroid " 25 solution was then dialyzed extensively against water whose pH had been adjusted to 10 with a few drops of IM NaOH.
- the heparin-steroid conjugate was finally freeze dried and stored in a desiccator at 4°C.
- a heparin-tetrahydro S conjugate was prepared according to the methodolody described above in section 35 5. 7 volumes of heparin adipic hydrazide (1.0 mg/ml) in 0.025M sodium acetate buffer, pH 4.0, were mixed with 3 volumes of tetrahydro s at 10.4 mg/ml in ethanol. The mixture was heated at 56°C for 14 days and then was adjusted to pH 10, dialyzed and freeze-dried as before.
- the molar ratio of tetrahydro S to heparin-adipic hydrazide in the resultant conjugate was calculated by determining the content of heparin-adipic hydrazide in the conjugate by the carbazole assay as above and the content of tetrahydro S by releasing the steroid under acidic conditions and measuring the released steroid using the blue tetrazolium assay described by Chen et al . (1953) .
- 1 ml of a 10 mg/ml solution of HAH- tetrahydro S in H 2 0 was dialyzed twice for 2-3 days at room temperature into 10 ml of 0.01 M acetic acid solution in H 2 0.
- the dialyzates were combined and freeze dried. The dry residue was dissolved in 5 ml ethanol. To 2 ml of the ethanol solution were added 1 ml of a solution of 0.14 ml 5 M NaOH in 25 ml ethanol and 2 ml of a 2.5 mg/ml solution of blue tetrazolium in ethanol. After 1 hour at room temperature, the optical density of the solution was measured at 510 nm and the steroid concentration was calculated by reference to the absorption of a set of standard steroid solutions prepared and assayed on the same occasion.
- the product consisted of 0.5 mol tetrahydro S per mol heparin-adipic hydrazide. Increasing the temperature or the duration of the reaction, or increasing the tetrahydro S concentration in the reaction mixture, did not result in an improved level of loading.
- the product is similar in structure to that shown in Figure 5 except that the heparin-adipic hydrazide forms an acyl hydrazone bond with C20 of the steroid rather than with C3. 7. Conjugation of Different steroids to the Hydrazine and Succinic Dihydrazide Derivatives of Heparin (Method le) ) .
- the condensation products of heparin and hydrazine on succinic dihyrazide were dissolved in 0.5M sodium acetate buffer pH 4.0 at 4.9 mg/ml.
- Aqueous solutions or suspensions of steroids were added in 10-20 fold molar excess over hydrazide groups and the mixture stirred for 24 hours at room temperature.
- the mixture was then adjusted to pH 9 with 10M NaOH.
- the conjugate was separated from unconjugated steroid by gel filtration on a column of sepharose G25 equilibrated in water whose pH had been adjusted to 10 with IM NaOH. The fractions containing the conjugate were pooled and freeze dried.
- This example relates largely to the structure and chemical properties of the conjugate formed between cortisol and heparin adipic hydrazide.
- the heparin adipic hydrazide was then dialyzed into 0.1M sodium acetate buffer, pH 4.0 and this solution adjusted to lmg/ml by addition of 0.1M sodium acetate buffer, pH 4.0.
- the molar ratio of cortisol to heparin in this product was determined by measuring the bound cortisol and heparin concentrations in a standard solution.
- the heparin concentration was determined using the carbazole method described above and the molar concentration was calculated assuming an average molecular weight of 15,000 Da (Barzu et al . , 1986).
- the cortisol concentration was measured spectrophotometrically at 274 nm, using an extinction coefficient of 21,900 M "1 for the acyl hydrazone derivative of cortisol.
- This extinction coefficient was determined by dissociating samples of heparin-cortisol at acidic pH and measuring the released cortisol concentration from the optical density at 242 nm (using the extinction coefficient of 16,100 M "1 (Budavari, 1989) after correcting for 242 nm absorbance due to the heparin-hydrazide.
- the molar ratio of cortisol:heparin in the product was usually found to be between 8 and 9.
- the anticoagulant activities of heparin, heparin- hydrazide, and the resultant heparin-cortisol conjugate were measured by their ability to inhibit coagulation of human plasma by Russell's viper venom.
- 20 ⁇ l solutions of heparin, heparin-hydrazide or heparin-cortisol at a range of concentrations from l-1000 ⁇ g/ml in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) were added to glass tubes which had been pre-warmed to 37°C.
- Fresh citrated human plasma (150 ⁇ l) at 37°C was added to each tube. The contents were immediately mixed and the tubes were incubated at 37°C for 1 minute.
- Heparin hydrazide and the heparin-cortisol conjugate formed therefrom were found to be virtually devoid of anticoagulant activity, having approximately 1% of the anticoagulant activity of native heparin, i.e. about 2 USP units/mg.
- This destruction of anticoagulant activity on derivatization is in agreement with results reported by Danishefsky and Siskovic (1971) for heparinylglycine and heparinylglycine methyl ester.
- modification of either or both of the two iduronic acid residues in the pentasaccharide sequence near to the non- reducing terminus distorts its anti-thrombin binding activity.
- the absence of anti ⁇ coagulant activity of the product is advantageous because hemorrhage is unlikely to be a problem when heparin- cortisol is administered to animals.
- the heparin- cortisol should, however, retain its ability to bind to endothelial cells because the sulfate groups which are important for tight binding are unaltered.
- Human umbilical vein endothelial cells were isolated from fresh human umbilical cords as described by Jaffe et al . , (1973). Cultures were maintained at 37°C in an atmosphere of 5% C0 2 in humidified air in Medium 199 supplemented with Earle's salts, 20% (v/v) fetal calf serum (FCS) , endothelial growth supplement (0.12mg/ml) , 0.09mg/ml heparin, 2.4mM L-glutamine, 200 units/ml penicillin and lOO ⁇ g/ml streptomycin. Cells were cultured in tissue culture flasks precoated with 1% (w/v) gelatin and were used at the third or fourth passage. Cultures were judged to by > 95% endothelial cells by morphological criteria and by positive staining of monolayers with monoclonal anti-vWF antibody, F8/86 (Naieu et al . , 1982).
- HUVE cells were removed from confluent tissue culture flasks with trypsin (0.025% w/v) and EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, 0.02% w/v) .
- a cell suspension was prepared at IO 4 cells/ml in culture medium containing all supplements with the exception of heparin. The suspension was distributed in lOO ⁇ l aliquots into the wells of 96-well flat bottomed microtiter plates which had precoated with 1% (w/v) gelatin in water. The cells were incubated for 24 hours at 37°C during which time they adhered to and spread onto the surface of the wells.
- MPCE cells were obtained from Professor Adam S.G. Curtis, University of Glasgow, U.K.
- the cells are a pulmonary capillary endothelial cell line isolated from B10.D2 mice. They are vWF positive, LDL receptor positive, synthesize collagen type III, are Gryphonia lectin positive and have endothelial morphology.
- the cells were cultured in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium supplemented with 10% (v/v) fetal calf serum, 1% (v/v) insulin-transferrin-sodium selenite (ITS) media supplement, 2 mM L-glutamine, and 2 units/ml Penicillin G and 2 ⁇ g/ml streptomycin. Cultures were maintained at 37°C in an atmosphere of 10% C0 2 .
- MPCE cells were removed from tissue culture flasks with trypsin (0.625% w/v) and EDTA (0.2% w/v). A cell suspension was prepared at 5X10 4 cells/ml in culture medium containing 10% serum and supplements as above.
- the cell suspension was dispensed in lOO ⁇ l aliquots into the wells of 96-well flat bottomed microliter plates. The cells were incubated for 24 hours at 37°C during which time they adhered to and spread onto the surface of the wells. 100 ⁇ l solutions of heparin-adipic hydrazide- cortisol or various control substances, such as cortisol, heparin-adipic hydrazide, or a mixture of heparin-adipic hydrazide and cortisol, dissolved in tissue culture medium were then added to designated wells and the cells were incubated for 24 hours at 37°C. All cultures were set up in quadruplicate.
- the culture medium above confluent HUVE cultures (in 24-well tissue culture plates) was exchanged for medium containing all supplements except heparin.
- the cells were cultured for 2 days and were then wounded with a plastic micropipet tip (Eppendorf) .
- the wounds were approximately 0.5mm wide and 5-7mm long.
- To the wounded monolayer cultures was added heparin-cortisol at a final concentration of 10" 5 M with respect to heparin (1.4x10"% with respect to cortisol) .
- Other wounded cultures were treated with heparin-hydrazide (10 "5 M) alone, cortisol alone (1.4x10 " %), or with an unconjugated mixture of both.
- the cultures were incubated at 37 ⁇ C for 5 days and were photographed.
- MPCE cells were cultured in 6 well tissue culture plates, grown to confluence and wounded with a plastic pipet tip (Oxford Universal large tip) to create a wound approximately 3 cm long and 0.15 cm wide.
- the wounded cultures were either treated with heparin-adipic hydrazide-cortisol conjugate at a final concentration of 2X10" 4 (with respect to cortisol) or with an unconjugated mixture of heparin-adipic hydrazide (at a final concentration of 2.4X10 "5 M) plus cortisol (at a final concentration of 2X10"%) .
- the cultures were incubated at 37°C for 5 days and photographed.
- heparin-cortisol inhibited DNA synthesis by HUVE cells to a significantly greater extent than did free cortisol or an unconjugated mixture of heparin hydrazide plus cortisol (Fig. 8a).
- the conjugate inhibited DNA synthesis by 50%, whereas, at this same concentration, neither free cortisol nor the heparin-hydrazide plus cortisol mixture were inhibitory.
- heparin-cortisol conjugate was binding to heparin receptors on HUVE cells
- the study was repeated with the inclusion of competing levels of free native heparin (10" 3 ) in the cultures.
- the presence of the competing ligand abolished the inhibitory effect of heparin-cortisol showing that, as expected, the effects of the conjugate were mediated through binding to heparin receptors.
- heparin-adipic hydrazide- cortisol inhibited DNA synthesis by MPCE cells to a significantly greater extent (P ⁇ 0.001) than did free cortisol, heparin-adipic hydrazide, or an unconjugated mixture of heparin-adipic hydrazide and cortisol (Fig. 8b) .
- the conjugate inhibited DNA synthesis by 50% at a concentration of 10 " % with respect to cortisol (1.25X10"% with respect to heparin-adipic hydrazide) .
- Tetrahydro S a steroid which lacks glucocorticoid or mineralocorticoid activity, yielded a heparin-adipic hydrazide conjugate which was 3-fold more potent at inhibiting DNA synthesis by MPCE cells in vitro than was heparin-adipic hydrazide-cortisol.
- Treatment of the cells with heparin-adipic hydrazide-tetrahydro S at 3X10 * % with respect to steroid reduced their DNA synthesis by 50% ( Figure 8c) as compared to 10 " % for heparin-adipic hydrazide-cortisol.
- the HAH-tetrahydro S conjugate was at least 20-fold more inhibitory than an unconjugated mixture of heparin-adipic hydrazide and tetrahydro S which had to be applied at 10"% with respect to steroid for 50% inhibition in DNA synthesis to result.
- the maximum inhibition of DNA synthesis obtained with high concentrations of heparin-adipic hydrazide-tetrahydro S exceeded that obtained with heparin-adipic hydrazide- cortisol.
- Lewis lung carcinoma (3LL) cells were relatively insensitive to heparin- cortisol.
- Treatment of 3LL cells with heparin-cortisol at 10 "3 M with respect to cortisol reduced their DNA synthesis by only 36%.
- This same level of inhibition of HUVE cells was obtained with a 40-fold lower concentration of heparin-cortisol.
- Heparin-cortisol was also less inhibitory than was free cortisol or cortisol mixed with heparin hydrazide, which again contrasted with HUVE cells.
- these agents inhibited DNA synthesis by 65 and 69% respectively.
- migration of HUVE cells into the wounded area began within 24 hours and was complete by 72 hours.
- heparin-cortisol at 1.6x10 " % with respect to cortisol little wound repair was evident by 5 days. This indicates that, in addition to inhibiting DNA synthesis, heparin-cortisol inhibits the migration of HUVE cells.
- the cells in the unwounded areas of the culture remained morphologically healthy showing that heparin-cortisol inhibited migration and proliferation but was not toxic to quiescent cells.
- heparin-adipic hydrazide-cortisol retarded the healing of wounded MPCE murine vascular endothelial cell monolayers.
- wound monolayers treated with an unconjugated mixture of HAH (2.4X10"%) and cortisol (2X10" %) migration of MPCE cells into the wounded area began within 24 hours and was complete by 72 hours.
- the wound was still evident on day 5 in monolayers treated with heparin-adipic hydrazide-cortisol at an equivalent concentration
- the cannula was sewn into the sponge with silk sutures and its open end was sealed with a removable plastic plug.
- Male BALB/c mice aged 8-12 weeks were anesthetized and the sponges were aseptically implanted into a subcutaneous pouch which had been fashioned with curved artery forceps through a 1cm long dorsal midline incision.
- the cannula was exteriorized through a small incision in the subcutaneous pouch.
- Vascularization of the sponge was assessed twice weekly after implantation by anesthetizing the mice and injecting lO ⁇ l of a sterile solution of 133 Xe in saline (5 x IO 5 dpm/ml) into the sponge via the cannula.
- the cannula was immediately plugged to prevent escape of the gas.
- a collimated gamma scintillation detector was then situated 1cm above the sponge and the radioactivity was measured for 5 seconds each minute for 9 minutes.
- the radioactivity-versus-time data were fitted to an exponential decline curve using a least-squares regression algorithm and the half-life of clearance was computed.
- heparin-cortisol (0.78mg) in 25 ⁇ l saline was injected into the sponge via the cannula every day for 10 days starting the third day after implantation.
- Other groups of mice received equivalent quantities of heparin-hydrazide (0.65mg), cortisol (0.13mg) or an unconjugated mixture of both.
- mice received intraperitoneal injections of heparin-cortisol (2.35mg) or heparin-hydrazide (1.95mg) plus cortisol (0.39mg) in 0.25ml saline every.day for 5 days starting on the third day after implantation, and then half these doses for the next 7 days.
- Each treatment group contained 10 mice. Effects on vascularization were judged from changes in 133 Xe clearance rate. Differences in clearance rates were tested for statistical significance using Willcoxin's log-rank test (Swinscow, 1980) and the Mann-Whitney- Wilcoxon (1976) Test for Two Independent Samples.
- mice received equivalent doses of heparin hydrazide (0.83mg) , cortisol (0.17mg), or of an unconjugated mixture of heparin hydrazide (0.83mg) plus cortisol (0.17mg).
- a further group received an unconjugated mixture of native heparin (0.83mg) plus cortisol (0.17mg). Sponges were dissected out and transverse frozen sections were cut from half way through the sponge's thickness.
- Endothelial cells and blood vessels were identified by indirect immunoperoxidase staining with goat anti-human vWF antibody which crossreacts with mouse vWF and with a rat monoclonal antibody, MECA 20, which reacts with mouse vascular endothelial cells (Duijvestijn et al . , 1987).
- the developing antibodies were horseradish peroxidase-conjugated rabbit anti-goat immunoglobulin and rabbit anti-rat immunoglobulin respectively and were used according to the manufacturer's recommended procedures. Blood vessels were visible as vWF-positive structures with discernable lumens. About half of the vessels contained erythrocytes.
- Endothelial cells were visible as vWF- positive cells having the morphology of endothelial cells but lacking an adjacent lumen.
- Heparin-cortisol was the only substance which retarded the 133 Xe clearance rates.
- 133 Xe clearance rates were the same as in mice which received saline alone (Table VI) .
- the number of blood vessels and endothelial cells present in sections of sponges which had been injected with heparin hydrazide, either alone or mixed with cortisol were reduced by about 45% and 65% respectively as compared with sponges injected with saline alone (Table VI) .
- mice were given daily intraperitoneal injections of high doses of heparin-cortisol (2.35mg) for 5 days and then half this dose (1.17mg) for 7 days.
- the dose was reduced during the study because the mice showed local bruising of the abdomen in the vicinity of the injection site.
- Measurements of 133 Xe clearance rates showed that vascularization was significantly (P ⁇ 0.05) retarded only while the larger doses were being given.
- Mice treated with equivalent amounts of a mixture of unconjugated heparin hydrazide and cortisol showed similar 133 Xe clearance rates to those in recipients of saline alone (Fig. 9b) .
- vascular endothelial cells also occurs in vivo .
- vascularization is a complex process requiring both the migration of vascular endothelial cells into the sponge and then proliferation to enable the capillary sprout to elongate.
- Injection of heparin-cortisol into implanted sponges resulted in the total abolition of vascularization, whereas the administration of unconjugated mixtures of heparin and cortisol, or heparin hydrazide and cortisol, did not affect vascularization.
- mice Male C57 BL/6 mice aged 8-12 weeks were injected subcutaneously with 3 x IO 6 Lewis lung carcinoma (3LL) cells which had been maintained in tissue culture.
- the tumor is an anaplasti ⁇ epider oid carcinoma which originated as a spontaneous lung tumor in a C57BL mouse in 1951 (Sugiura & Stock, 1955) .
- the mice When the tumors had grown to measurable dimensions (about 0.3cm in diameter), the mice were injected intravenously with 0.1ml of saline containing lmg heparin-cortisol every day for 9 days.
- Other mice received equivalent quantities of heparin- hydrazide (0.85mg), cortisol (0.15mg), or a mixture of both.
- mice On the tenth day, the mice were sacrificed and their tumors were removed and weighed. All treatment groups contained 8-10 mice. Differences in tumor weights were tested for statistical significance using Student's t-test and the Mann-Whitney-Wilcoxon (1976) Nonparametric Test for Two Independent Samples. 2. Results and Discussion
- ⁇ tumor weight significantly (P ⁇ 0.05) less " than in saline controls.
- ⁇ tumor weight in heparin-adipic hydrazide (HAH)-cortisol recipients significantly (P ⁇ 0.05) less than in recipients of heparin-adipic hydrazide (HAH) plus cortisol.
- HAH tumor weight significantly (P ⁇ 0.05) less " than in saline controls.
- ⁇ tumor weight in heparin-adipic hydrazide (HAH)-cortisol recipients significantly (P ⁇ 0.05) less than in recipients of heparin-adipic hydrazide (HAH) plus cortisol.
- heparin-cortisol The mechanism of action of heparin-cortisol is believed to be similar to that represented in Fig. 11. It is possible that the inhibitory effects of systemically administered heparin-cortisol on tumor growth and sponge vascularization might be improved by a different dose regimen designed to increase and sustain blood levels. Since the effects of steroids on cell activation and proliferation rapidly reverse when the steroid is removed (Folkman et al . , 1973, 11690), it is possible that a wave of endothelial cell proliferation occurs towards the end of each 24 hour interval between injections. If so, the problem should be solved simply by a continuous infusion of the conjugate.
- heparin-cortisol is rapidly removed by blood vessels in normal tissues following systemic administration, and that little drug reaches blood vessels ,in the tumor or sponge.
- this is highly unlikely.
- the total number of vascular endothelial cells in the mouse is approximately 5xl0 8 (Anggard, 1990) and the number or heparin receptors per endothelial cell is IO 6 to IO 7 (BSrzu et al . , 1986)
- the entire vasculature of the mouse contains a total of 0.5- 5xl0 15 heparin receptors.
- a standard dose of heparin- cortisol would supply approximately 5 x 10 16 heparin-cortisol molecules, which exceeds the total number of heparin of heparin receptors by 10 to 100-fold.
- saturation of heparin receptors on blood vessels in the tumor or sponge is predicted to occur after each administration of heparin-cortisol. Biodistribution studies are needed to confirm this prediction.
- Lewis lung carcinoma used in the present study resembles lymphomas in this regard. Measuring the rate of endothelial cell division in tumors in mice on heparin- cortisol therapy will allow this point to be resolved.
- angiostatic steroids e.g. tetrahydro S
- mineralocorticoid activity e.g. glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid activity
- heparin-cortisol inhibits DNA synthesis and migration of vascular endothelial cells in vitro, retards vascularization of sponges implanted into mice, and significantly inhibits the growth of solid Lewis lung carcinomas in mice.
- the activity of the heparin-cortisol conjugate exceeded that of a mixture of its components showing that chemical linkage of the components improves the biological activity of the conjugate.
- the heparin- cortisol conjugate of the present invention thus represents the prototype of a new class of angiogenesis inhibitors with anti-tumor activity.
- compositions and methods of this invention have been described in terms of preferred embodiments, it will be apparent to those of skill in the art that variations may be applied to the composition, methods and in the steps or in the sequence of steps of the method described herein without departing from the concept, spirit and scope of the invention. More specifically, it will be apparent that certain agents which are both chemically and physiologically related may be substituted for the agents described herein while the same or similar results would be achieved. All such similar substitutes and modifications apparent to those skilled in the art are deemed to be within the spirit, scope and concept of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
