Abstract

A new class of paromomycin-derived aminoglycosides, which exhibit efficient stop-codon mutation suppression activity, low toxicity and high selectivity towards eukaryotic cells are provided. Also provided are chemical and chemo-enzymatic processes of preparing these paromomycin-derived aminoglycosides and intermediates thereof, as well as pharmaceutical compositions containing the same, and uses thereof in the treatment of genetic disorders.

Claims (66)

1. A method of inducing readthrough of a premature stop codon mutation in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound having a general Formula I:

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof,

wherein:

each of R 1 , R 2 and R 3 is independently a monosaccharide moiety, halide, hydroxyl, amine or an oligosaccharide moiety, at least one of R 1 , R 2 and R 3 being a monosaccharide moiety having the general Formula II:

wherein each of R 6 , R 7 and R 8 is independently selected from the group consisting of hydroxyl and amine, or R 1 being an oligosaccharide moiety,

whereas when R 2 is said monosaccharide moiety having said Formula II, R 6 is amine;

X is oxygen or sulfur;

R 4 is (S)-4-amino-2-hydroxybutyryl (AHB);

R 5 is hydroxyl;

Y is hydrogen or alkyl; and

each of the dashed lines indicates independently an R configuration or an S configuration.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein said compound is:

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein X is oxygen.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein Y is hydrogen.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein at least one of R 1 , R 2 and R 3 is a disaccharide moiety.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein Y is alkyl.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein said premature stop codon mutation is associated with a genetic disorder, the method being for treating said genetic disorder in the subject.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein said genetic disorder is selected from the group consisting of cystic fibrosis (CF), Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), ataxia-telangiectasia, Hurler syndrome, hemophilia A, hemophilia B, Usher syndrome, Tay-Sachs Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD), Congenital muscular dystrophy (CMD), Factor VII deficiency, Familial atrial fibrillation, Hailey-Hailey disease, McArdle disease, Mucopolysaccharidosis, Nephropathic cystinosis, Polycystic kidney disease, Rett syndrome, Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), X-linked nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (XNDI) and X-linked retinitis pigmentosa.

9. A method inducing readthrough of a premature stop codon mutation in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound having a general Formula I:

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof,

wherein:

each of R 1 , R 2 and R 3 is independently a monosaccharide moiety, hydroxyl, amine or an oligosaccharide moiety, and at least one of R 1 , R 2 and R 3 being a monosaccharide moiety having the general Formula II:

wherein each of R 6 , R 7 and R 8 is independently selected from the group consisting of hydroxyl and amine, or R 1 being an oligosaccharide;

X is oxygen or sulfur;

R 4 is hydrogen;

R 5 is hydroxyl;

Y is hydrogen; and

each of the dashed line indicates independently an R configuration or an S configuration,

with the proviso that said compound is not selected from the group consisting of

and paromomycin.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein X is oxygen.

11. The method of claim 9 , wherein said compound is:

12. A method of inducing readthrough of a premature stop codon mutation in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound having a general Formula I:

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof,

wherein:

each of R 1 , R 2 and R 3 is independently a monosaccharide moiety, halide, hydroxyl, amine or an oligosaccharide moiety,

X is oxygen or sulfur;

R 4 is hydrogen or (S)-4-amino-2-hydroxybutyryl (AHB);

R 5 is hydroxyl or amine;

Y is alkyl; and

each of the dashed line indicates independently an R configuration or an S configuration,

and wherein:

at least one of R 1 , R 2 and R 3 is selected from a monosaccharide moiety and an oligosaccharide moiety; and/or

R 4 is (S)-4-amino-2-hydroxybutyryl (AHB),

with the proviso that said compound is not G-418.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein X is oxygen.

14. The method of claim 12 , wherein R 5 is hydroxyl.

15. The method of claim 12 , wherein at least one of R 1 , R 2 and R 3 is a monosaccharide moiety.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein R 4 is AHB.

17. The method of claim 12 , wherein said compound is:

18. The method of claim 12 , wherein said premature stop codon mutation is associated with a genetic disorder, the method being for treating said genetic disorder in the subject.

19. The method of claim 18 , wherein said genetic disorder is selected from the group consisting of cystic fibrosis (CF), Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), ataxia-telangiectasia, Hurler syndrome, hemophilia A, hemophilia B, Usher syndrome, Tay-Sachs Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD), Congenital muscular dystrophy (CMD), Factor VII deficiency, Familial atrial fibrillation, Hailey-Hailey disease, McArdle disease, Mucopolysaccharidosis, Nephropathic cystinosis, Polycystic kidney disease, Rett syndrome, Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), X-linked nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (XNDI) and X-linked retinitis pigmentosa.

20. A method of inducing readthrough of a premature stop codon mutation in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound having a general Formula I:

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof,

wherein:

each of R 1 , R 2 and R 3 is independently a monosaccharide moiety, halide, hydroxyl, amine or an oligosaccharide moiety,

X is oxygen or sulfur;

R 4 is (S)-4-amino-2-hydroxybutyryl (AHB);

R 5 is hydroxyl or amine;

Y is alkyl; and

each of the dashed line indicates independently an R configuration or an S configuration.

21. The method of claim 20 , wherein X is oxygen.

22. The method of claim 20 , wherein R 5 is hydroxyl.

23. The method of claim 20 , wherein at least one of R 1 , R 2 and R 3 is a monosaccharide moiety.

24. The method of claim 20 , wherein said premature stop codon mutation is associated with a genetic disorder, the method being for treating said genetic disorder in the subject.
