[0251] Experimental Example 2. Inhibition of human liver microsomal cytochrome P450 isoenzymes (CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6 and CYP3A4) activity
[0252] A total of 5 specific probe substrates of 5 CYP isozymes, which are phenacetin (PHenacetin, CYP1A2), diclofenac (Diclofenac, CYP2C9), (S)-mephenytoin ((S)-MepHenytoin, CYP2C19), dextromethorpHan (CYP2D6), and midazolam (Midazolam, CYP3A4), were incubated with human liver microsomes respectively. Then, reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) was added to initiate reaction. After the reaction, the sample is processed and quantitatively detected for the concentrations of the five metabolites produced from the specific substrate, acetaminophen (AcetaminopHen), 4′-hydroxydiclofenac (4′-Hydroxydiclofenac), 4′-Hydroxymephenytoin (4′-HydroxymepHenytoin), Dextrorphan (DextrorpHan), and 1′-Hydroxymidazolam (1′-Hydroxymidazolam) by liquid chromatography-quadrupole mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method to calculate the corresponding half inhibitory concentration (IC.sub.50).

[0253] Conclusion: WX002 and WX011 have no risk of inhibiting the activity of human liver microsomal cytochrome P450 isoenzymes (CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6 and CYP3A4). The drugs that CYP2C19 involves in their metabolism account for only 2% of marketed drugs, while the drugs that CYP3A involves in their metabolism have accounted for 50% of marketed drugs. The reference compound and the reference A have a strong inhibitory effect on CYP3A4, which is reflected in the clinical practice of inhibiting CYP3A4 to increase exposure to other drugs metabolized by CYP3A4, thereby having a potential safety risk, that is, drug-drug interaction. WX001 has no inhibitory effect on CYP3A4, the main metabolic enzyme of drug metabolism, thereby avoiding occurrence of such risks.
Experimental Example 3 Anti-Tumor Activity of Compounds of the Invention in Animal Tumor Models In Vivo
[0254] Purpose:
[0255] The anti-tumor effect of the compound of the invention in combination with a anti-PD-1 antibody in mice (RMP1-14, Bioxcell, catalog number BP0146) was investigated in a colon cancer MC38 tumor model in mice in vivo.
[0256] Experimental Method:
[0257] Female C57BL/6 mice were subcutaneously inoculated with MC38 colon cancer cell lines in mice, and randomly grouped according to the body weight after inoculation. The administration was carried out according to the following description.
[0258] Group 1 (A control group): the vehicle 1 (5% DMSO/95% (10% HP-β-CD: β-Cyclodextrin)) was administrated intragastrically at a dose of 0.1 mL/10 g body weight twice daily, starting in the afternoon on the day of inoculation. Vehicle 2 (DPBS: Dulbecco's phosphate buffered saline) was administrated by intraperitoneal injection at a dose of 0.1 mL/10 g body weight at 11, 14 and 18 day after inoculation.
[0259] Group 2: Anti-mouse PD-1 antibody (RMP1-14) was injected intraperitoneally at 11, 14 and 18 day after inoculation once. The dose at 11 day is 3 mg/kg body weight, and the dose at 14 day and the dose 18 day is 6 mg/kg body weight.
[0260] Group 3: CVC (Cenicriviroc) (dissolved in 5% DMSO+95% (10% HP-β-CD), pH 4) was administrated intragastrically at a dose of 100 mg/kg body weight twice daily, starting in the afternoon on the day of inoculation. Anti-mouse PD-1 antibody (RMP1-14) was administrated by intraperitoneal injection at 11, 14 and 18 day after inoculation. The dose at 11 day was 3 mg/kg body weight, and the doses on 14 day and 18 day were 6 mg/kg body weight.
[0261] Group 4: WX001 (dissolved in 5% DMSO+95% (10% HP-β-CD), pH 4) was administrated intragastrically at a dose of 100 mg/kg body twice daily, starting in the afternoon on the day of inoculation. Anti-mouse PD-1 antibody (RMP1-14) was administrated by intraperitoneal injection at 11, 14 and 18 day after inoculation once. The dose at day 11 was 3 mg/kg body weight, and the doses on 14 day and 18 day was 6 mg/kg body weight.
[0262] During the experiment, the mice were weighed three times a week. After tumour formation, the tumor volume was measured three times a week in synchronization with weighing the body weight. The tumor volume was calculated according to the formula of “length×width.sup.2/2”, the tumor proliferation rate and tumor inhibition rate were calculated according to the following formulas: Tumor proliferation rate=the tumor volume in the treatment group/the tumor volume in the control group×100%; Tumor inhibition rate=(the tumor volume in the control group−the tumor volume in the treatment group)/the tumor volume in the control group.
[0263] Student's t-test was used for statistical analysis between the groups, and p<0.05 was considered as a significant difference.

[0265] The effect of WX001 on the tumor volume in the MC38 colon cancer tumor model in mice is shown in
[0266] Experimental Conclusion: In the MC38 tumor model in mice, the WX001+PD-1 combination group had a significant enhanced efficacy compared to the PD-1 single-use group. The tumor proliferation rate at 31 day was 25.42% (compared to the vehicle group, p<0.01; compared to the CVC+PD-1 combination group, p<0.01).
