[Site-specific mutation of ω-transaminase and the biocatalytic preparation of (S)-1-(2-fluorophenyl) ethylamine].

Article

Author: Wang, Pu ; Zhang, Haimin ; Yu, Shuangrong ; Sun, Xinqiang ; Qian, Feng

(S)-1-(2-fluorophenyl) ethylamine plays a crucial role as a chiral building block in pharmaceutical synthesis. ω-transaminases are widely recognized as environmentally friendly and efficient catalysts for the preparation of chiral amines. In this study, we isolated a novel ω-transaminase, PfTA, from Pseudogulbenkiania ferrooxidans through gene mining in the NCBI database. By employing semi-rational design, we obtained a Y168R/R416Q variant with enhanced enzyme activity. This variant exhibited the ability to catalyze the synthesis of (S)-1-(2-fluorophenyl) ethylamine from 2-fluorophenone, achieving a yield of 83.58% and an enantioselectivity exceeding 99% after a 10 h reaction. Compared to the wild type, the specific enzyme activity of the Y168R/R416Q variant reached 47.04 U/mg, which represents an increase of 11.65 times. Additionally, the catalytic efficiency, as measured by k_cat/K_m, was increased by 20.9 times. Molecular docking and structural simulation analysis revealed that the primary factor contributing to the improved catalytic efficiency is the expansion of the enzyme's active pocket and the alleviation of steric hindrance.

Enzymatic properties of a non-classical aldoxime dehydratase capable of producing alkyl and arylalkyl nitriles

Article

Author: Yang, Fengling ; Xiao, Qinjie ; Feng, Yumin ; Li, Nanxing ; Wang, Anming ; Pei, Xiaolin ; Wang, Qiuyan ; Chen, Li

Nitriles are of significant interest in the flavor and fragrance industries with potential application in cosmetics due to their higher stability than analogous aldehydes. However, the traditional methods to prepare nitriles need toxic reagents and hash conditions. This work aimed to develop a chemoenzymatic strategy to synthesize nitriles from natural aldehydes with aldoxime as the intermediate. A non-classical aldoxime dehydratase (Oxd) was discovered from the fungus Aspergillus ibericus (OxdAsp) to catalyze the dehydration of aldoximes to corresponding nitriles under mild conditions. The amino acid sequence of OxdAsp exhibits an approximately 20% identity with bacterial Oxds. OxdAsp contains a heme prosthetic group bound with the axial H287 in the catalytic pocket. The structure models of OxdAsp with substrates suggest that its catalytic triad is Y138-R141-E192, which is different from the classically bacterial Oxds of His-Arg-Ser/Thr. The catalytic mechanism of OxdAsp was proposed based on the mutagenesis of key residues. The hydroxyl group of the substrate is fixed by E192 to increase its basicity. Y138 acts as a general acid-based catalyst, and its phenolic proton is polarized by the adjacent R141. The protonated Y138 would donate a proton to the hydroxyl group of the substrate and eliminate a water molecule from aldoxime to produce nitrile. The recombinant OxdAsp can efficiently dehydrate citronellal oxime and cinnamaldoxime to citronellyl nitrile and cinnamonitrile in aqueous media, which are applied as fragrance ingredients in the food and cosmetic fields. KEY POINTS: • A novel aldoxime dehydratase from the Aspergillus genus was first characterized as a heme-binding protein. • The catalytic mechanism was predicted based on the molecular interactions of the catalytic pocket with the substrate. • A chemoenzymatic strategy was developed to synthesize nitriles from natural aldehydes with aldoxime as the intermediate.

ESMO: Ambrx's 'reset' arrives at the last line of prostate cancer, offering the kind of safety rarely seen

Almost a year to the day before Ambrx's ESMO presentation, the company laid off 15% of its staff and trimmed the pipeline down to ARX517 and a couple other early-stage assets. MADRID—When patients reached Ambrx Biopharma’s phase 1/2 clinical trial for prostate cancer, they were nearing the end of their treatment journey. It’s hard to read that some had gone through 13 rounds of treatment before they entered the study. CEO Daniel O’Connor and Chief Clinical Officer Sandra Aung don’t take that lightly. “They're last line patients, they have no other options and typically patients in that bucket go for clinical trials,” Aung said on the sidelines of the European Society for Medical Oncology Congress in Madrid. Ambrx wants to provide another option, but more importantly, a better option for these patients who are facing difficult decisions after a long fight with cancer. The company unveiled early-stage data from the APEX-01 study of the antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) ARX517 showing anti-cancer activity and few adverse events—none serious. For efficacy, Ambrx reported that more than half of the 23 patients had a 50% or more reduction in prostate specific antigen, which is elevated in prostate cancer. Seventeen out of 21, or 81% of evaluable patients, also had a steep reduction in circulating tumor DNA. In a smaller analysis of six patients, half who had prior prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeted radionuclide therapy, had more or equal to 50% reduction in prostate specific antigen. And out of four evaluable patients, half had a 30% or more reduction in target lesions. There were no treatment-related serious adverse events or dose limiting toxicities, a discontinuation rate of just 3.1% and fewer than 10% grade 3 treatment related adverse events—but no grade 4 or 5s. Aung said the safety data are particularly important for these late-stage patients: “We don’t want to make them sicker.” “I don't know if I've ever seen a late-stage cancer drug, after two years of clinical development, not having an [serious adverse event]. Not one,” O’Connor said in an interview. The grade 3 events were lymphocyte count decreases, platelet count decreases and one instance of left ventricular dysfunction, which Aung said was found in the course of the treatment and was not considered serious. “We don't want to diminish what a grade 3 is, but on a grand scheme of things for this late-line patient on this drug, [it’s] very tolerable. We would feel very comfortable calling it strong safety,” Aung said. While the data are from a small population, Ambrx is already forming a detailed strategy of next steps. Aung said that the safety profile resulted from the biotech’s careful testing and drug discovery process. “It's very rare to find this kind of safety profile. It is really born from technology, it's not luck,” she said. There’s still a lot to do in the clinic, including fully enrolling the study and conducting dose expansion, O’Connor said. With so few safety events, he thinks the dose can go higher to push efficacy even further. “Ultimately, if we see a data plateau and we see an impact over efficacy, we'll make a decision probably not to move forward to a higher level,” O’Connor said. “It's incumbent on us to continue to explore higher doses to see if there's more efficacy.” Ambrx also saw in the small dataset the possibility that the treatment will work regardless of a patient’s PSMA biomarker levels, which would mean ARX517 could have access to a wide patient population. The trial did not screen for PSMA, so the patients had a mix of high and low levels. “If we don't have to have a biomarker program, we do not want to have one,” O’Connor said. Aung said they are certainly going to collect that data, but the goal is not to pick one population over the other. “We want to be able to treat patients, not have to select them,” she added. “We're going to collect it and we're going to look at the data and make a decision on whether it's necessary or not.” Ambrx's scorecard The ESMO presentation represents a major reset for Ambrx. Almost a year to the day, the biotech laid off 15% of its staff and trimmed the pipeline down to ARX517 and a couple other early-stage assets. The dramatic moves came after a breast cancer program fell apart. “Focus is really the key for us. And I think frankly, we’re really pleased with the progress the company has made this year,” said O’Connor, who took the helm in November 2022 after the layoffs. “There was a reduction that happened last fall. A year later, there's really kind of a complete change. A reset.” Aung is another fresh face, having taken on her role in February. Ambrx has also managed to raise some cash and extend its runway to 2026, all in a market O’Connor admits is challenging for the larger industry. The most recent offering in June closed with $75 million, which followed a $78 million raise in March. Even the breast cancer program, initially the cause of the company cutbacks, is returning. In March, Ambrx said that a phase 2 study in China conducted by partner NovoCodex Biopharmaceuticals showed that ARX788 demonstrated better progression-free survival than the control group. O’Connor moved to resurrect the drug. “It was shelved not because of efficacy, it was shelved because the company was concerned about cash burn a year ago, just before I was the CEO,” O’Connor said. Ambrx always believed there was a signal in the data. Now, he says Ambrx is conducting a small signal-finding study in a group of breast cancer patients who have no other options. The FDA had previously granted a fast-track tag for the treatment. “On each scorecard, we feel like we've really changed the trajectory of the company. And we are really pleased with the progress,” O’Connor said.

ACE-Breast-02 Pivotal Phase 3 Study of Ambrx’s ARX788 for the Treatment of HER2 Positive Metastatic Breast Cancer Achieves Positive Results

Interim analysis of the ACE-Breast-02 study being conducted by Ambrx’s partner, NovoCodex Biopharmaceuticals, was completed by the Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC) The pivotal Phase 3 ACE-Breast-02 study met its pre-specified interim primary efficacy endpoint with statistical significance, demonstrating a greater progression free survival benefit compared to the control SAN DIEGO, CA, USA I March 01, 2023 I Ambrx Biopharma Inc., or Ambrx, (NYSE: AMAM) announced today that it has been informed by its partner, NovoCodex Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (NovoCodex), that an interim analysis for ACE-Breast-02, a randomized Phase 3 breast cancer clinical trial investigating Ambrx’s ARX788, an anti-HER2 antibody drug conjugate (ADC), has met its pre-specified interim primary efficacy endpoint with statistical significance, demonstrating a greater progression free survival (PFS) benefit compared to the active control. ACE-Breast-02 is a randomized, controlled pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial of humanized anti-HER2 monoclonal antibody-AS269 conjugate (ARX788) in the treatment of HER2 positive patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancers in China. The trial enrolled 441 HER2 positive breast cancer patients who have been previously treated with taxane and trastuzumab. Eligible subjects were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive ARX788 or the control drugs, lapatinib combined with capecitabine. The primary endpoint was PFS based on Blinded Independent Review Committee (BIRC) assessment. An interim analysis was conducted by an Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC) when two thirds (2/3) of the PFS events occurred. After reviewing the interim results, the IDMC informed NovoCodex that the ACE-Breast-02 study met its pre-specified interim primary efficacy endpoint with statistical significance, demonstrating a greater PFS benefit compared to the control. Based on the results from the interim analysis, NovoCodex plans to submit a communication application to seek marketing approval in China pending discussion with National Medical Products Administration (NMPA). Daniel O’Connor, Chief Executive Officer of Ambrx commented: “We congratulate our partner, NovoCodex, on this positive Phase 3 study. The positive results from this large Phase 3 study provide further support for our rationale to develop ARX788 globally in HER2 positive breast cancer patients.” ARX788 is an anti-HER2 ADC currently being studied broadly in breast cancer, gastric/GEJ cancer and other solid tumor clinical trials with our partner NovoCodex. The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted Fast Track Designation for ARX788 in HER2 positive metastatic breast cancer and Orphan Drug Designation for ARX788 in gastric cancer. The NMPA has granted Breakthrough Therapy Designations for ARX788 in breast cancer. In June 2013, Ambrx entered into a collaboration with Zhejiang Medicine Co., Ltd., which was transferred to it subsidiary NovoCodex, to develop and commercialize ARX788, Ambrx’s most advanced internally developed site-specific ADC targeting HER2-positive breast cancer. Under the agreement, NovoCodex licensed commercial rights for ARX788 in China while Ambrx retained commercial rights outside of China and is entitled to receive royalties on sales of ARX788 in China.
