    Test Example 1 Effect of the Compound of the Invention on PD-L1 Activity at the Molecular Level

    [0314] PD-1/PD-L1 homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF) detection technology was used to detect the binding ability of the compound to PD-L1.

    [0315] PD1/PD-L1 binding assay kit (Cisbio, Cat #63ADK000CPDEC) was used, which includes two proteins, Tag 1-PD-L1 and Tag 2-PD-1, and two antibodies, Anti-Tag1-Eu.sup.3+ and Anti-Tag2-XL 665. Assay principle: Anti-tagl-Eu.sup.3+ is the HTRF donor, and Anti-Tag2-XL 665 is the HTRF acceptor. When Tag 1-PD-L1 and Tag 2-PD-1 interact, the added HTRF donor and the acceptor are close to each other. After the donor receives the excitation energy, it transfers part of the energy to the acceptor, thus producing 665 nm emission signal. When the compound is added to block the PD1/PD-L1 interaction, only 620 nm emission light was detected. The inhibitory effect of the compound was determined by analyzing the ratio of 665 nm/620 nm. Tag 1-PD-L1 was diluted with Diluent buffer (cat #62DLBDDF) to a working concentration of 10 nM, Tag 2-PD-1 was diluted with Diluent buffer to a working concentration of 500 nM, and Anti-Tag1-Eu.sup.3+ was diluted with detection buffer (cat #62DB1FDG) by 1:100, Anti-Tag2-XL 665 was diluted with detection buffer by 1:20, and the test compound was diluted with Diluent buffer to a final concentration of 2. In a 384-well plate, 2 L of compound was added to each well, and then 4 L of Tag 1-PD-L1, 4 L of Tag 2-PD-1 were added and incubated at room temperature for 15 minutes. 5 L Anti-Tag1-Eu.sup.3+ and 5 L Anti-Tag2-XL 665 were added and incubated overnight at room temperature, and detected with BioTek Synergy Neo2 Multifunctional Microplate Reader to obtain the ratio of 665 nm/620 nm. The IC50 curve was fitted by GraphPad Prism 5.02.

    [0320] The results showed that the compounds of the present invention could effectively inhibit the binding of PD-1/PD-L1 at different concentrations. Therefore, the compounds of the present invention can be used in the treatment of diseases related to the mutual binding of PD-1/PD-L1.

    Test Example 2 Effect of the Compound of the Invention on PD-L1 Activity at the Cellular Level

    [0321] Two types of cells were used in the cytology experiments of PD1/PD-L1, PD-1 effector cells and PD-L1 aAPC cells, wherein PD-1 effector cells express human PD-1 protein, TCR and luciferase reporter gene driven by NFAT-RE, PD-L1 aAPC cells express PD-L1 protein and engineered cell surface protein, which can activate TCR independently of specific antigens. When these two cells were co-cultured, the PD-1/PD-L1 interaction could inhibit the signal transmission from TCR to NFAT-RE and interrupt the NFAT-RE-mediated fluorescent signal. When an inhibitor of PD-1 or PD-L1 was added, the PD-1/PD-L1 interaction was blocked, and the signal inhibition of the TCR to NFAT-RE pathway was removed, and the fluorescence signal was enhanced. The blocking effect of the inhibitors was assayed according to the strength of fluorescence signal.

    [0322] On the first day of the experiment, the recovered PD-L1 aAPC cells were digested. After centrifugation, the concentration was diluted to 2.5*10.sup.5/mL with medium (90% Ham's F-12/10% FBS). 40 L cells (1*10.sup.4) were plated in each well of 384-well plates and cultured overnight in an incubator. On the second day, the test compound was diluted with assay buffer (99% RPMI1640/1% FBS) to 2* of final concentration. PD-1 cells were centrifuged and diluted to a concentration of 6.25*10.sup.5/mL with detection buffer. Remove the culture medium from the overnight cultured 384-well plate. Transfer 20 L of the diluted compound and 20 L of PD-1 cells to each well. After incubated in the cell incubator for 6 hours, 20 L of Bio-Glo reagent was added to each well (Promega, cat #G7940). After 10 minutes, the fluorescence signal was read by a multi-functional microplate reader. Negative control (only cells and no compounds) and a blank control (only detection buffers) were set for each plate. Based on the fluorescence value, Prism5 was used to analyze the inhibitory activity of each compound.

    [0323] The results showed that the compounds of the present invention exhibited inhibitory activity on PD-1 cells at the cellular level, and the inhibitory activity was equivalent to or better than known PD-1 inhibitors in the art.
