FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0002] The present invention provides methods of treating, stabilizing or lessening the severity or progression of a disease or disorder associated with Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase ("BTK") inhibitor. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0003] The search for new therapeutic agents has been greatly aided in recent years by a better understanding of the structure of enzymes and other biomolecules associated with diseases. One important class of enzymes that has been the subject of extensive study is protein kinases. [0004] Protein kinases constitute a large family of structurally related enzymes that are responsible for the control of a variety of signal transduction processes within the cell. Protein kinases are thought to have evolved from a common ancestral gene due to the conservation of their structure and catalytic function. Almost all kinases contain a similar 250-300 amino acid catalytic domain. The kinases may be categorized into families by the substrates they phosphorylate (e.g., protein-tyrosine, protein-serine/threonine, lipids, etc.). [0005] In general, protein kinases mediate intracellular signaling by effecting a phosphoryl transfer from a nucleoside triphosphate to a protein acceptor that is involved in a signaling pathway. These phosphorylation events act as molecular on/off switches that can modulate or regulate the target protein biological function. These phosphorylation events are ultimately triggered in response to a variety of extracellular and other stimuli. Examples of such stimuli Page 1 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 include environmental and chemical stress signals (e.g., osmotic shock, heat shock, ultraviolet radiation, bacterial endotoxin, and H 2 0 2 ), cytokines (e.g., interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumor necrosis factor a (TNF-ax)), and growth factors (e.g., granulocyte macrophage-colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), and fibroblast growth factor (FGF)). An extracellular stimulus may affect one or more cellular responses related to cell growth, migration, differentiation, secretion of hormones, activation of transcription factors, muscle contraction, glucose metabolism, control of protein synthesis, and regulation of the cell cycle. [0006] Many diseases are associated with abnormal cellular responses triggered by protein kinase-mediated events as described above. These diseases include, but are not limited to, autoimmune diseases, inflammatory diseases, bone diseases, metabolic diseases, neurological and neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, allergies and asthma, Alzheimer's disease, and hormone-related diseases. Accordingly, there remains a need to find protein kinase inhibitors useful as therapeutic agents. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0007] The present invention provides methods of treating, stabilizing or lessening the severity or progression of one or more diseases and conditions associated with BTK. In some aspects, the present invention provides methods of treating, stabilizing or lessening the severity or progression of one or more diseases and conditions associated with BTK comprising administering to a patient in need thereof a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising N-(3-(5-fluoro-2-(4-(2-methoxyethoxy)phenylamino)pyrimidin-4-ylamino)phenyl)acrylamide (1): HN N H F 0 ~N H 1 [0008] In some embodiments, the present invention provides a method of treating, stabilizing or lessening the severity or progression of one or more diseases and conditions associated with BTK selected from group consisting of B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic Page 2 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 leukemia and Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia, wherein the method comprises administering to a patient in need thereof a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising Compound 1. [0009] In some embodiments, provided methods comprise orally administering to a patient compositions comprising Compound 1. In some embodiments, such compositions are capsule formulations. In general, provided methods comprise administering a composition which comprises Compound 1 and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients, such as, for example, binders, diluents, disintegrants, wetting agents, lubricants and adsorbents.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Definitions [0019] As used herein, a "disease or disorder associated with BTK" means any disease or other deleterious condition in which BTK, or a mutant thereof, is known or suspected to play a role. Accordingly, another embodiment of the present invention relates to preventing, treating, stabilizing or lessening the severity or progression of one or more diseases in which BTK, or a mutant thereof, is known or suspected to play a role. Specifically, the present invention relates to a method of treating or lessening the severity of a proliferative disorder, wherein said method comprises administering to a patient in need thereof Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable composition thereof . [0020] As used herein, a "therapeutically effective amount" means an amount of a substance (e.g., a therapeutic agent, composition, and/or formulation) that elicits a desired biological response. In some embodiments, a therapeutically effective amount of a substance is an amount that is sufficient, when administered as part of a dosing regimen to a subject suffering from or susceptible to a disease, disorder, and/or condition, to treat, diagnose, prevent, and/or delay the onset of the disease, disorder, and/or condition. As will be appreciated by those of ordinary skill in this art, the effective amount of a substance may vary depending on such factors as the desired biological endpoint, the substance to be delivered, the target cell or tissue, etc. For example, the effective amount of compound in a formulation to treat a disease, disorder, and/or condition is the amount that alleviates, ameliorates, relieves, inhibits, prevents, delays onset of, reduces severity of and/or reduces incidence of one or more symptoms or features of the disease, disorder, and/or condition. In some embodiments, a "therapeutically effective amount" is at least a minimal amount of a compound, or composition containing a compound, which is sufficient for treating one or more symptoms of a disorder or condition associated with Bruton's tyrosine kinase. Page 4 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 [0021] The term "subject", as used herein, means a mammal and includes human and animal subjects, such as domestic animals (e.g., horses, dogs, cats, etc.). [0022] The terms "treat" or "treating," as used herein, refers to partially or completely alleviating, inhibiting, delaying onset of, preventing, ameliorating and/or relieving a disorder or condition, or one or more symptoms of the disorder or condition. As used herein, the terms "treatment," "treat," and "treating" refer to partially or completely alleviating, inhibiting, delaying onset of, preventing, ameliorating and/or relieving a disorder or condition, or one or more symptoms of the disorder or condition, as described herein. In some embodiments, treatment may be administered after one or more symptoms have developed. In some embodiments, the term "treating" includes preventing or halting the progression of a disease or disorder. In other embodiments, treatment may be administered in the absence of symptoms. For example, treatment may be administered to a susceptible individual prior to the onset of symptoms (e.g., in light of a history of symptoms and/or in light of genetic or other susceptibility factors). Treatment may also be continued after symptoms have resolved, for example to prevent or delay their recurrence. Thus, in some embodiments, the term "treating" includes preventing relapse or recurrence of a disease or disorder. [0023] The expression "unit dosage form" as used herein refers to a physically discrete unit of inventive formulation appropriate for the subject to be treated. It will be understood, however, that the total daily usage of the compositions of the present invention will be decided by the attending physician within the scope of sound medical judgment. The specific effective dose level for any particular subject or organism will depend upon a variety of factors including the disorder being treated and the severity of the disorder; activity of specific active agent employed; specific composition employed; age, body weight, general health, sex and diet of the subject; time of administration, and rate of excretion of the specific active agent employed; duration of the treatment; drugs and/or additional therapies used in combination or coincidental with specific compound(s) employed, and like factors well known in the medical arts. Compound 1 is an irreversible BTK inhibitor [0024] United States published patent application number US 2010/0029610, published February 4, 2010 ("the '610 publication," the entirety of which is hereby incorporated herein by reference), describes certain 2,4-disubstituted pyrimidine compounds which covalently and Page 5 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 irreversibly inhibit activity of one or more protein kinases, including BTK, a member of TEC kinases. Such compounds include Compound 1, which is designated as compound number I 182 in the '610 publication. The synthesis of Compound 1 is described in detail at Example 20. Compound 1 is active in a variety of assays and therapeutic models demonstrating covalent, irreversible inhibition of BTK (in enzymatic and cellular assays). Notably, Compound 1 was found to inhibit B-cell proliferation and activation. Accordingly, Compound 1 is useful for treating one or more disorders associated with activity of BTK. [0025] The present invention provides methods of treating, stabilizing or lessening the severity or progression of one or more diseases and conditions associated with BTK comprising administering to a patient in need thereof a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising Compound 1, wherein the pharmaceutically acceptable composition is an oral dosage form. In some such embodiments, the pharmaceutically acceptable composition is formulated as a capsule. Such methods, dosing regimens and protocols for the administration of pharmaceutically acceptable compositions comprising Compound 1 are described in further detail, below. Z GENERAL DOSJNGPRorOCOL [0026] As described above, the present invention provides methods of treating, stabilizing or lessening the severity or progression of one or more diseases or conditions associated with BTK, wherein the method comprises administering to a patient in need thereof a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising Compound 1. In some embodiments, the present invention provides a method of preventing the progression of a disease or disorder associated with BTK. [0027] In some embodiments, provided methods comprise administering to a patient in need thereof a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising from about 5% to about 60% of Compound 1, based upon total weight of the formulation. In some embodiments, provided methods comprise administering to a patient in need thereof a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising from about 5% to about 15% or about 7% to about 15% or about 7% to about 10% or about 9% to about 12% of Compound 1, based upon total weight of the composition. In some embodiments, provided methods comprise administering to a patient in need thereof a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising from about 25% to about 75% or about 30% to about 60% or about 40% to about 50% or about 40% to about 45% of Page 6 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 Compound 1, based upon total weight of the formulation. In certain embodiments, provided methods comprise administering to a patient in need thereof a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising from about 6%, about 7%, about 8%, about 9%, about 10%, about 11%, about 12%, about 13%, about 20%, about 30%, about 40%, about 41%, about 42%, about 43%, about 44%, about 45%, about 50%, about 60%, about 70%, or about 75% of Compound 1, based upon total weight of given composition or formulation. [0028] In some embodiments, provided methods comprise administering a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising Compound 1 one, two, three, or four times a day. In some embodiments, a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising Compound 1 is administered once daily ("QD"). In some embodiments, a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising Compound 1 is administered twice daily ("BID"). In some embodiments, a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising Compound 1 is administered three times a day ("TID"). In some embodiments, a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising Compound 1 is administered four times a day ("QID"). For example, administration of a 375 mg dose of Compound 1 "BID" means that the patient is administered two separate doses of 375 mg in one day. [0029] In some embodiments, provided methods comprise administering a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising Compound 1 once a day ("QD"). In some embodiments, a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising Compound 1 is administered once daily for aperiodofl,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26, 27 or 28 days. In some embodiments, a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising Compound 1 is administered once daily for 28 consecutive days ("a 28-day cycle"). In some embodiments, a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising Compound 1 is administered once daily for at least one 28-day cycle. In some embodiments, a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising Compound 1 is administered once daily for at least two, at least three, at least four, at least five or at least six 28-day cycles. In some embodiments, a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising Compound 1 is administered once daily for at least seven, at least eight, at least nine, at least ten, at least eleven or at least twelve 28-day cycles. In some embodiments, a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising Compound 1 is administered once daily for at least thirteen, at least fourteen, at least fifteen, at least sixteen, at least seventeen, at least eighteen, at least nineteen or at least twenty 28-day Page 7 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 cycles. In some embodiments, a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising Compound 1 is administered to a patient for the duration of the patient's life. [0030] In some embodiments, two adjacent 28-day cycles may be separated by a rest period. Such a rest period may be one, two, three, four, five, six, seven or more days during which the patient is not administered a unit dose of Compound 1. In a preferred embodiment, two adjacent 28-day cycles are continuous. [0031] In some embodiments, provided methods comprise administering to a patient in need thereof a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising Compound 1, wherein the patient has failed at least one prior therapy. Unit Dosage Forms [0032] Pharmaceutical compositions for use in the present invention may be prepared as a unit dosage form. A person of ordinary skill will appreciate that the unit dosage forms described herein refer to an amount of Compound 1 as a free base. A person skilled in the art will further appreciate that, when a pharmaceutical composition comprises a salt form of Compound 1, for example a besylate salt form, the amount of the salt form present in the composition is an amount that is equivalent to a unit dose of the free base of Compound 1. For example, a pharmaceutical composition comprising a besylate salt of Compound 1 would contain 34.97 mg of the besylate salt form necessary to deliver an equivalent 25 mg unit dose of the free base of Compound 1. [0033] In some embodiments, provided methods comprise administering to a patient in need thereof a composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of Compound 1, wherein the therapeutically effective amount is about 125 mg to about 625 mg.

IL USES OF COMPO/DSAANDPHA RMA CE1/7/CAL L A CCEPTABLE CoMPosi7/oNs [0037] Compound 1 and compositions described herein are generally useful for the inhibition of protein kinase activity of one or more enzymes. Examples of kinases that are inhibited by Compound 1 and compositions described herein and against which the methods described herein are useful include BTK and other TEC-kinases, including ITK, TEC, BMX and RLK, or a mutant thereof. [0038] Bruton's tyrosine kinase ("BTK"), a member of TEC-kinases, is a key signaling enzyme expressed in most hematopoietic cell types except T lymphocytes. BTK plays an essential role in the B-cell signaling pathway linking cell surface B-cell receptor (BCR) stimulation to downstream intracellular responses. [0039] BTK is a key regulator of B-cell development, activation, signaling, and survival (Kurosaki, Curr. Op. Imm., 2000, 276-281; Schaeffer and Schwartzberg, Curr. Op. Imm. 2000, 282-288). In addition, BTK plays a role in a number of other hematopoietic cell signaling pathways, e.g., Toll like receptor (TLR) and cytokine receptor-mediated TNF-a production in macrophages, IgE receptor (Fc-epsilonRI) signaling in mast cells, inhibition of Fas/APO-1 apoptotic signaling in B-lineage lymphoid cells, and collagen-stimulated platelet aggregation. See, e.g., C. A. Jeffries, et al., (2003), Journal of Biological Chemistry 278:26258-26264; N. J. Horwood, et al., (2003), The Journal of Experimental Medicine 197: 1603- 1611 ; Iwaki et al. (2005), Journal of Biological Chemistry 280(48):40261 -40270; Vassilev et al. (1999), Journal of Biological Chemistry 274(3): 1646-1656, and Quek et al. (1998), Current Biology 8(20): 1137 1140. Page 10 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 [0040] Patients with mutations in BTK have a profound block in B-cell development, resulting in the almost complete absence of mature B lymphocytes and plasma cells, severely reduced Ig levels and a profound inhibition of humoral response to recall antigens (reviewed in Vihinen et al Frontiers in Bioscience 5 : d917-928). Mice deficient in BTK also have a reduced number of peripheral B-cells and greatly decreased serum levels of IgM and IgG3. BTK deletion in mice has a profound effect on B-cell proliferation induced by anti-IgM, and inhibits immune responses to thymus-independent type II antigens (Ellmeier et al, J Exp Med 192: 1611-1623 (2000)). BTK also plays a crucial role in mast cell activation through the high-affinity IgE receptor (Fc-epsilonRI). BTK deficient murine mast cells have reduced degranulation and decreased production of proinflammatory cytokines following Fc-epsilonRI cross-linking (Kawakami et al. Journal of Leukocyte Biology 65: 286-290). [0041] Compound 1 is an inhibitor of BTK and therefore useful for treating one or more disorders associated with activity of BTK. Thus, in some embodiments, the present invention provides a method of treating, stabilizing or lessening the severity or progression of a BTK mediated disorder comprising the step of administering to a patient in need thereof N-(3-(5 fluoro-2-(4-(2-methoxyethoxy)phenylamino)pyrimidin-4-ylamino)phenyl)acrylamide, or pharmaceutically acceptable compositions thereof. [0042] As used herein, the term "BTK-mediated" disorders or conditions as used herein means any disease or other deleterious condition in which BTK, or a mutant thereof, is known or suspected to play a role. Accordingly, another embodiment of the present invention relates to treating, stabilizing or lessening the severity or progression of one or more diseases in which BTK, or a mutant thereof, is known or suspected to play a role. Specifically, the present invention relates to a method of treating, stabilizing or lessening the severity or progression of a proliferative disorder, wherein said method comprises administering to a patient in need thereof Compound 1 or a composition according to the present invention. [0043] Non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL), most of which are classified as B-cell in origin, and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) comprise a substantial proportion of the overall cancer burden in the United States. For NHL, approximately 65,500 new cases and 20,200 deaths were expected in 2010; while for CLL, approximately 15,000 new cases and 4,400 deaths were predicted. NHL accounts for approximately 4% of incident cancer and cancer deaths in the United States. Page 11 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 1. B-cell non-Hodgkin's Lymphomas [0044] The B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (B-NHL) exhibit variable clinical behavior and are principally classified on the basis of morphologic criteria. Although many specific entities are recognized, the two most prevalent categories comprise diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL), approximately 33% of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and the follicular B cell lymphomas, comprising 20-25%. Other clinically relevant categories include mantle cell, marginal zone (including the extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue, [MALT]), primary mediastinal large B-cell, and Burkitt lymphomas. [0045] Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma typically presents as an aggressive neoplasm with median survival of less than 1 year if left untreated. For several decades, multi-agent chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) was the front-line standard treatment. This regimen produced 41% disease-free and 54% overall survival (OS) at 3 years, and was demonstrated to be as effective as more complicated and toxic chemotherapy regimens. Compared to CHOP alone, the current front-line treatment standard of the anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody rituximab administered concurrently with CHOP (R-CHOP) results in superior event-free survival (EFS) and OS in both poor risk older patients (60-80 years of age; 7 year follow-up: EFS 25% (CHOP) vs. 42% (R-CHOP); OS 35% vs. 53%), as well as in good risk younger patients (18-60 years of age; 3 year follow-up: EFS 59% (CHOP) vs. 79% (R CHOP); OS 84% vs. 93%). A clinical scoring index, the International Prognostic Index (IPI), was developed to stratify patients by prognosis. More recently, gene expression profiling was utilized to distinguish 3 prognostic groups of patients with DLBCL: germinal center B-cell like, activated B-cell like, and a diffuse type 3 group. These 3 molecular subgroups were not strictly related to any specific histologic sub-type of DLBCL, and they predicted survival following anthracycline-based chemotherapy independently of the IPI. Five year OS following anthracycline-based chemotherapy for the germinal center B-cell-like group was 60% compared with 39% for the diffuse type 3 group, and 35% for the activated B-cell-like group. [0046] Despite the success of R-CHOP in treating DLBCL, some patients relapse. Based largely on the PARMA study, the standard treatment approach to fit patients with relapsed disease is to employ salvage chemotherapy and consolidation with autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT). In the PARMA trial, the use of transplantation following salvage Page 12 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 chemotherapy versus continued salvage chemotherapy alone resulted in improved 5 year EFS (46% vs. 12%) and OS (53% vs. 32%). [0047] The follicular NHLs are characterized by a relatively indolent clinical course and high response rates to various chemotherapies, immunotherapies, radioimmunotherapies, and radiation therapy. Not all cases require immediate treatment and "watch and wait" remains an option for some. Nonetheless, most patients eventually require treatment for clinical complications of progressively bulky tumor and undergo multiple courses of treatment characterized by variable degrees of remission followed by successive progressions at shorter and shorter intervals. Median OS from diagnosis in the pre-rituximab era was 8-10 years, although various clinical prognostic and molecular classifications have identified subsets with distinctly poorer outcomes, including some with only 4-5 year median survival. Monotherapy with rituximab produced clinically meaningful responses in both front-line and relapsed follicular lymphoma; and in randomized studies comparing combinations of alkylator and/or anthracycline-based chemotherapies alone versus with rituximab, the addition of rituximab resulted in improved median progression-free and short-term (3-4 year follow-up) OS. However, despite the introduction of rituximab and other advances in the management of advanced stage follicular lymphomas, these diseases remain largely incurable for the majority of those afflicted. [0048] Indolent NHL is a slow-growing or low-grade form of NHL. Indolent NHL types have a relatively good prognosis with a median survival as long as 10 years, but they usually are not curable in advanced clinical stages. Early stage indolent NHL (stages I and II) has traditionally been treated with radiation therapy. However, a continuous rate of relapse is usually seen in advanced stages of indolent NHL. Accordingly, there remains a need for improved therapies for the treatment of indolent NHL. The present invention provides a method of treating, stabilizing or lessening the severity or progression of indolent Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, wherein said method comprises administering to a patient in need thereof Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable composition thereof. [0049] A person of ordinary skill will appreciate that diseases characterized as "B-cell lymphoma" exist as a continuum of diseases or disorders. While the continuum of B-cell lymphomas is sometimes discussed in terms of "aggressive" B-cell lymphomas or "indolent" B cell lymphomas, a person of ordinary skill will appreciate that a B-cell lymphoma characterized as indolent may progress and become an aggressive B-cell lymphoma. Conversely, an Page 13 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 aggressive form of B-cell lymphoma may be downgraded to an indolent or stable form of B-cell lymphoma. Reference is made to indolent and aggressive B-cell lymphomas as generally understood by a person skilled in the art with the recognition that such characterizations are inherently dynamic and depend on the particular circumstances of the individual. [0050] In some embodiments, the B-cell lymphoma is a B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma selected from diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, Burkitt's lymphoma/leukemia, mantle cell lymphoma, mediastinal (thymic) large B-cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, marginal zone lymphoma (including extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma and nodal marginal zone B cell lymphoma), lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma/Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia. In some embodiments, the B-cell lymphoma is chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL). In some embodiments, the B-cell lymphoma is Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia. [0051] Aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphomas include diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), Burkitt's lymphoma/leukemia, mantle cell lymphoma and mediastinal lymphoma. [0052] Indolent or slow-growing B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphomas include follicular lymphoma, marginal zone lymphoma and lymphoblastic lymphoma/Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia. 2. Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia [0053] The B-cell disorders chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) represent 2 ends of a spectrum of the same disease process differing in the degree of blood/marrow involvement (CLL) versus lymph node involvement (SLL). Chronic lymphocytic leukemia is the most common leukemia in the U.S. and is typically characterized immunophenotypically as CD5+, CD23+, CD1O-, CD19+, CD20 dim, sIg dim, and cyclin Dl (the latter point a distinguishing feature from mantle cell lymphoma). Chronic lymphocytic leukemia must also be distinguished from monoclonal B lymphocytosis (absolute monoclonal B cell count < 5000/4L and absence of adenopathy or other clinical features of lymphoproliferative disorder). The understanding of CLL/SLL biology and prognostic factors, and advances in formulating a risk-stratified approach to treatment of CLL/SLL have been recently reviewed by Lanasa, Furman, and the National Comprehensive Cancer Network NHL panel. Page 14 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 [0054] Allogeneic stem cell transplant is the only potentially curative treatment for CLL, but 70% of affected patients are > 65 years of age at the time of diagnosis; have co-morbid conditions limiting eligibility for such therapy; and may exhibit a prolonged natural history with or without specific treatment. The actual prognosis of CLL is variable and dependent principally on clinical stage and certain genetic and molecular features. Both the Rai and Binet clinical staging systems are able to distinguish patient prognostic groups with median OSs ranging from 19 months in the most advanced stage (thrombocytopenia) to > 150 months in the earliest stage (blood and marrow lymphocytosis without adenopathy, organomegaly, or defined anemia/thrombocytopenia). Classification by the presence or absence of immunoglobulin heavy gene somatic mutation (IgVH) and by interphase fluorescent in situ hybridization (iFISH) analysis for probed-for acquired chromosomal abnormalities adds additional prognostic discrimination to clinical staging, with unmutated IgVH and del(1 lq) and del(17p) cytogenetics predicting poorer outcome. [0055] The CLL treatment algorithm is complex and requires first the decision to treat (e.g., presence of symptoms such as fatigue or night sweats; bulky adenopathy/organomegaly; progressive anemia/thrombocytopenia); and second, choice of the treatment regimen, usually involving one or more: purine nucleosides (fludarabine), alkylating agents (cyclophosphamide, chlorambucil, bendamustine), corticosteroids, anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies (rituximab/ofatumumab), or anti-CD52 monoclonal antibodies (alemtuzumab). The choice of specific therapies depends on the patient's age, disease pattern (eg, primarily nodal versus non nodal), anticipated drug tolerance and contraindications, and presence or absence of adverse prognostic features such as del(1lq) or del(17p). Despite numerous therapies to choose from, treatment options are eventually limited by drug toxicities and resistance, and patients who do not succumb to other maladies endure progressive complications relating to cytopenias, the effects of lymphadenopathy and organomegaly, systemic symptoms, and infectious complications. Given the often elderly character of the patient population, an orally available, well tolerated treatment that exploits a novel weakness of CLL would be welcome. 3. Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia [0056] Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia (WM) is a malignant B-cell lymphoplasmoproliferative disorder characterized by production of monoclonal pentameric Page 15 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 Immunoglobulin M (IgM). Approximately 1000-1500 new cases occur annually in the United States, with an excess in white males. Clinical symptoms relate to tumor infiltration (anemia, thrombocytopenia secondary to marrow infiltration; lymphadenopathy and organomegaly); serum hyperviscosity from the monoclonal IgM excess (bleeding, ocular, neurologic, and cardiovascular symptoms); deposition of IgM in tissues (glomeruli - proteinuria, intestine diarrhea, skin - papules/nodules); and autoantibody activity of the IgM (chronic immune hemolytic anemia associated with cold agglutinins, peripheral neuropathies). The characteristic lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate in the bone marrow is most often surface IgM positive (sIgM+), CD19+, CD20+, CD22+, and CD79+; although some cases of WM may express CD5, CD10, or CD23. The differential diagnosis includes CLL and mantle cell lymphoma. [0057] Criteria for the initiation of treatment in WM have been defined by a consensus panel of experts, and several recent reviews have summarized treatment recommendations. Initiation of therapy is not based on the IgM level per se but rather on clinical manifestations such as constitutional symptoms, lymphadenopathy/organomegaly, anemia, thrombocytopenia, manifestations of serum hyperviscosity, etc. Recommended first line therapies include rituximab, alkylators (chlorambucil), nucleoside analogs (fludarabine, cladribine), and various combinations of these agents with rituximab. Combinations of rituximab with cyclophosphamide or nucleoside analogs produce overall response rates of 70-80% and complete responses in 10%. Combinations of rituximab with bortezomib and dexamethasone have demonstrated overall response rates of 96%, including 22% with complete response. Consequently, regimens such as rituximab with bortezomib have been recommended as salvage regimens as well as for first line management for patients in need of immediate disease control, since the median time to response with this regimen was only 1.1 months. Other salvage approaches include recycling previously effective first line regimens, thalidomide with rituximab, alemtuzumab, and autologous stem cell and reduced-intensity conditioning allogeneic stem cell transplant. [0058] Rituximab, particularly when administered as monotherapy to patients with high IgM levels > 3 g/L, may be associated with an IgM flare that can lead to symptomatic hyperviscosity and other signs and symptoms. The elevated IgM levels may persist for months and do not necessarily portend treatment failure, as evidenced by concurrent reduction in marrow lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate. Conversely, treatment with bortezomib may be associated with rapid reduction in serum IgM levels without significant reduction in bone marrow Page 16 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 lymphoplasmacytic infiltrates, suggesting inhibition of IgM secretion without overt cell killing. Indeed, it has been demonstrated that treatment may induce delayed reductions in serum M protein despite prompt reductions in marrow clonal B-cells; while leaving, however, readily identifiable residual CD138+ monoclonal plasma cells in the marrow, explaining the persistent production of the Mprotein. The discordant response between the serum IgM levels and degree of marrow infiltration observed with rituximab and bortezomib based therapies have resulted in the recommendation that in situations where the serum IgM levels may appear out of clinical context, a bone marrow examination be considered to clarify the underlying disease burden. [0059] Despite therapeutic progress and a variety of available treatment options for WM, therapies are limited by adverse tolerance and eventual resistance. WM generally remains incurable and most patients die of disease. A 1999 review reported median survival of 5 years. Ten years later, in 2009, an International Prognostic Scoring System for Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia (ISSWM) was reported which analyzed 587 WM patients meeting consensus panel criteria for treatment and reported median survivals from initiation of treatment in risk classified sub-groups ranging from less than 4 years to 12 years, with an overall median of 7 years. In some embodiments, Compound 1 mitigates and/or is effective in treating the rituximab-induced IgM flare in Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia. Rationale for Targeting Btk in B-NHL, CLL, and WM [0060] Mechanisms of B-cell lymphoma pathogenesis have recently been reviewed. Most B cell lymphomas depend on expression of the B-cell receptor for survival, and antigen activation signaling through the BCR seems to be an important factor for lymphoma pathogenesis. An RNA interference genetic screen revealed that the BCR signaling component Btk is essential for survival of activated B-cell like (ABC) DLBCLs with wild type Caspase Recruitment Domain Family Member 11 (CARD 11). Small hairpin RNAs (shRNA) targeting Btk were toxic for ABC cell lines with downstream wild type CARD 11 but not for cell lines with mutant CARD 11 capable of constitutively signaling through the NF-kB pathway, suggesting that further molecular pathway dissection and clinical correlation may open avenues for kinase inhibition strategies that are personalized to the tumor phenotype. [0061] The importance of BCR signaling in CLL has also been studied, in which it has been reported that half of all CLL retain BCR signaling in vitro and that IgVH is an important Page 17 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 determinant of BCR responsiveness. Two groups have reported that mutated and unmutated CLL cells respond differentially to IgM ligation of the BCR, with unmutated, but not mutated, CLL cells responding to BCR stimulation with increased global tyrosine phosphorylation and by up-regulating several genes associated with cell cycle regulation and allowing cell growth and expansion. These data highlight the differential role that BCR signaling plays in CLL physiology depending on IgVH mutational status and may suggest a possible differential responsiveness of CLL to inhibitors of BCR signaling. Other in vitro studies have reported that specific Btk inhibition with the investigational agent PCI-32765 produced substantially more apoptosis and cytotoxicity in CLL cells relative to normal B-cells; as well as inducing apoptosis in the face of anti-apoptotic micro-environmental signals, reduction of secretion of chemokines CCL3 and CCL4, and reduction of chemotaxis towards the chemokines CXCL12 and CXCL13. Detailed studies of the pathophysiologic role of Btk in the origin and/or maintenance of WM have not yet been reported. However, a recent report investigating transgenic mouse models demonstrated that constitutively active Btk expression resulted in selective expansion or survival of B-i cells that were driven into germinal center independent plasma cell differentiation, as evidenced by increased numbers of IgM+ plasma cells in spleen and bone marrow and significantly elevated serum IgM. Anti-nucleosome autoantibodies and glomerular IgM deposition were also observed. However, one study of sequence analysis in 19 WM patients with hypogammaglobulinemia G and/or A failed to find any novel variants in the promoter, flanking introns, or exons of Btk. [0062] Strategies specifically targeting B-cells, for example the B-cell depleting anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies rituximab and ofatumumab, have demonstrated clinical efficacy in B-cell lymphoma and CLL. Spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) is a kinase in the BCR signaling pathway proximal to Btk. Inhibition of Syk with the orally available Syk inhibitor fostamatinib disodium produced clinical responses in DLBCL, CLL, and mantle cell lymphoma. Most tellingly, clinical proof of concept for Btk inhibition has been demonstrated by clinical investigations of the orally available Btk inhibitor PCI-32765, which have reported objective anti-tumor responses in patients with DLBCL; mantle cell, marginal zone/ mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT), and follicular lymphoma; Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia; and CLL/SLL, with good tolerability. Page 18 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 [0063] Thus, based on the critical importance of BCR signaling mediated through Btk for the survival and proliferation of various malignant B-cells; Btk's limited cellular expression in B cells, macrophages, and monocytes; and demonstrated pre-clinical and early clinical proofs of concept that Btk inhibition produces salutary anti-lymphoma, CLL, and WM effects with acceptable clinical tolerability, targeting Btk with a selective Btk inhibitor is a promising and appropriate therapeutic strategy to investigate further in the clinic. [0064] Compound 1 is a potent, selective, orally administered small molecule inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk), a major component of the BCR signaling complex. The expression of Btk is limited primarily to B lymphocytes, mast cells, monocytes, and basophils. Compound 1 inhibits Btk activity by binding with high affinity to the ATP binding site of Btk and forming a covalent bond with the target Btk protein, providing rapid, complete, and prolonged inhibition of Btk activity, both in vitro and in vivo. [0065] Both tonic and activated BCR signaling have been implicated in the growth and survival of distinct subtypes of B-cell lymphomas as well as CLL. Reducing the expression of the Immunoglobulin a (Iga) or Immunoglobulin P (Igp) subunits of the BCR by siRNA knockdown reduced proliferation of B-cell lymphoma cell lines. Additionally, the mutational status of the BCR in CLL is one of the strongest predictors of disease progression, as aggressive disease typically displays BCR encoded by unmutated immunoglobulin variable heavy chains.

Subjects with relapsed or refractory B-NHL, CLL/SLL, or WM who failed at least one prior treatment regimen and who had an ECOG Performance Status grade of 2 or less and exhibit adequate organ function were enrolled in a series of escalating dose cohorts according to a modified Fibonacci sequence. Dose escalation proceeded by a standard "3+3" methodology up to Cohort 5 (750 mg dose), with three patients enrolled to dose level 1 and treated QD for 28 days. Dose escalation, via enrollment in the next higher dose, was allowed only if none (0) of the first three (3) enrolled subjects, or no more than one (1) of the first six (6) enrolled subjects, experienced dose limiting toxicity ("DLT") during the first 28 days of treatment at the lower dose. Intrapatient dose escalation was allowed. [0098] Six (6) dose levels and two (2) contingent dose levels were defined and outlined in Table 2. Table 2. Study Dosing Schema for Escalating Dose Portion of Study COHORT DOSELEVEL FREQUENCY 1 Starting Dose 125 mg QD x 28d 2 250 mg QD x 28d 2.5 (contingent)* 325 mg QD x 28d 3 400 mg QD x 28d 3.5 (contingent)* 500 mg QD x 28d 4 625 mg QD x 28d 5 750 mg QD x 28d * During the dose escalation study it was intended to proceed directly from dose level 2 to 3 and from dose level 3 to 4 if dose levels 2 and 3 proved safe and well tolerated. Contingent dose levels 2.5 and 3.5 were defined in the event that either dose level 3 or 4 was found to exceed the maximum tolerated dose ("MTD") (> 2 of 6 subjects experience DLTs). [0099] Enrollment for Cohorts 1-5 was not restricted or contingent on the basis of specific B NHL/CLL/WM diagnosis. Within each cohort, subjects were treated PO (oral) QD (daily) with N-(3-(5-fluoro-2-(4-(2-methoxyethoxy)phenylamino)pyrimidin-4-ylamino)phenyl) acrylamide besylate monotherapy during an initial 28-day treatment cycle and were assessed for safety, Page 30 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 tolerability, DLT, pharmacokinetic ("PK"), and pharmacodynamic ("PD"), and disease response. In certain instances, the physician-investigator may elect to rest a patient during the study, during which time the patient does not receive treatment. For example, the physician-investigator may elect to rest a patient due to occurrence or recurrence of adverse events. For purposes of clarity, a patient who has been rested is still enrolled in the study until the physician-investigator determines that the patient should not continue treatment, at which time such patients are discontinued from further treatment. In this context, treatment duration refers to the time a patient is enrolled in the study, inclusive of all rest periods, until treatment is discontinued. [001001 Study Design: Cohorts 6AIB-7A/B. Beginning with Cohort 6 (1000 mg), twelve (12) patients were enrolled in each subsequent DL and dose. Four (4) dose levels were defined and outlined in Table 3. Table 3. Expanded Cohorts - Cohorts 6A/B and 7A/B COHORT DOSELEVEL FREQUENCY 6A* 1000 mg QD x 28d 6B* 375 mg BID x 28d 7A+ 1250 mg QD x 28d 7B+ 500 mg BID x 28d * Cohorts 6A and 6B were recruited and initiated in parallel with subject enrollment alternating between the two cohorts. If an expanded cohort(s) is simultaneously active, subject enrollment will also alternate with the expanded cohort(s). + Cohort 7A will proceed provided Cohort 6A proves safe and well-tolerated. Cohort 7B will proceed provided Cohort 6B proves safe and well-tolerated. If an expanded cohort(s) is simultaneously active, enrollment will also alternate with the expanded cohort(s). [00101] Six (6) subjects diagnosed with CLL and six (6) patients diagnosed with B-NHL were enrolled in each of Cohorts 6A and 6B. Cohorts 6A and 6B were enrolled concurrently, and if meeting the requirements for continued escalation, Cohorts 7A and 7B will be enrolled and evaluated. Within each cohort, subjects were treated PO (oral) either QD (daily) or BID (twice daily), as set forth in Table 3, with N-(3-(5-fluoro-2-(4-(2 methoxyethoxy)phenylamino)pyrimidin-4-ylamino)phenyl)acrylamide besylate monotherapy during an initial 28-day treatment cycle and were assessed for safety, tolerability, and dose limiting toxicity ("DLT"), and for pharmacokinetic ("PK"), pharmacodynamic ("PD"), and disease response. [00102] For all cohorts, dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) were specified adverse events (AEs) that observed within the first 28-day cycle and deemed to be related to treatment. Hematologic Page 31 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 DLTs were graded in accordance with the International Workshop Criteria 2008 for patients with CLL and the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for AEs v4 for patients with B-NHL or WM. Hematologic DLTs included Grade 4 anemia or thrombocytopenia, Grade 4 neutropenia greater than 5 days despite granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) and Grade 3 or higher febrile neutropenia. Non-hematologic DLTs included Grade 3 or higher non hematologic AEs, with the exception of nausea, vomiting and diarrhea lasting less than 24 hours following medical therapy, tumor lysis syndrome which did not progress to grade 4 and was resolved in less than 7 days with medical management, and transient, rapidly reversible and asymptomatic grade 3 non-hematologic laboratory anomaly. [00103] Subjects without disease progression and without DLT at the end of the first 28-day cycle of treatment will be eligible to continue receiving N-(3-(5-fluoro-2-(4-(2 methoxyethoxy)phenylamino)pyrimidin-4-ylamino)phenyl)acrylamide besylate as monotherapy for additional 28-day cycles until (i) the patient experiences unacceptable toxicity, (ii) the underlying malignancy progresses, (iii) the patient withdraws consent, or (iv) the treating physician-investigator otherwise determines that the patient should not continue treatment. . Subjects with CLL experiencing nodal response with lymphocytosis (which may be related to drug-mediated lymphocyte redistribution) were also eligible for additional treatment. Subjects with WM with increasing serum Immunoglobulin M ("IgM") levels at the end of the first 28-day cycle were also evaluated for lymphadenopathy/organomegaly and marrow infiltration. Investigators were permitted to use judgment in determining whether to continue these subjects into the second 28-day cycle if there was a discordant response between increased IgM and stable or decreased lymphadenopathy/organomegaly and marrow infiltration. [00104] Dose escalation will continue until a DLT is observed. Dose escalation, via enrollment in the next higher dose was allowed only if none (0) of the first three (3) enrolled subjects, or no more than one (1) of the first six (6) enrolled subjects in the preceding dose cohort experienced a DLT during the first 28-day cycle of treatment and observation. One key objective for the dose escalation portion of the study was to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and Optimal Biological Effect dose (OBE). The OBE was defined as: a. > 90% target occupancy in 9 of 12 subjects in either peripheral blood or lymph node biopsy at any dose level; and/or b. no further increase in exposure with increasing doses; and/or Page 32 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 c. results in a > 25% increase in lymphocytosis in 4/6 CLL subjects sub-cohort during cycles 1 through 3. Results [00105] Summary of Study Results. Sixty (60) patients with previously treated CLL or B NHL were enrolled as of September 11, 2012. Thirty-six (36) patients were enrolled in dose escalation cohorts 1-6A/B as follows: Table 4. Number of Patients in Dose Escalation Cohorts Cohort Dose Number of Enrolled Patients 1 125 mg QD 3 2 250 mg QD 3 3 400 mg QD 6 4 625 mg QD 6 5 750 mg QD 6 6A 1000 mg QD 7 6B 375 mg BID 5 [00106] Another twenty-four (24) patients were enrolled in the CLL expansion cohort, discussed in greater detail below in Example 2. Nineteen (19) patients were diagnosed with CLL in dose escalation cohorts 1-6A/B. The thirteen CLL patients in cohorts 1-5 exhibited the following chromosomal abnormalities (fluorescent in situ hybridization, FISH): two (2) 17p-, one (1) 11q22-, one (1) 17p-/11q22-/13q-/+12, one (1) 17p-/11q22-/13q-, one (1) 17p-/13q-; one (1) 11q22-/13q-, one (1) 13q-/+12, one (1) +12, three (3) with no identifiable chromosomal abnormalities, and one (1) with unknown chromosomal status. Three (3) of the thirteen had mutated IGHV, eight (8) had unmutated IGHV, and in two (2) the IGHV status was unknown. [00107] Seventeen (17) patients were diagnosed with B-NHL (4 diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL); 5 follicular (FL); 1 splenic marginal zone (sMZL), 1 marginal zone lymphoma (MZL); 2 mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), 2 Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia (WM), 1 mediastinal large B cell lymphoma (MLBCL) and 1 small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL)). Page 33 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 [00108] Twenty-four (24) patients were administered API in one of five cohorts of 125, 250, 400, 625 or 750 mg po QD using a 3+3 design in continuous 28 day cycles until progressive disease (PD) or toxicity. Twelve (12) patients were administered API in one of two cohorts of 1000 mg po QD (7 patients) or 375 mg po BID (5 patients). Of the twelve patients in cohorts 6A and 6B, six patients were diagnosed with CLL and six patients were diagnosed with B-NHL. Key objectives were safety, DLT, MTD, PK and Btk occupancy. Plasma API levels were assessed by LC-MS-MS. Btk occupancy levels were assessed by covalent probe assay in peripheral blood mononuclear cells. To date, twenty-three of thirty-six patients continue on treatment, with a median time of treatment of 77.5 days (range of 9-357 days). [00109] Cohort 1. Three subjects suffering from CLL were enrolled in the first cohort (125 mg). The one male and two female cohort 1 patients had a median age of 59 (range of 45-64), with a median of 2 prior therapies (range of 2-10). None of the subjects showed DLT or disease progression and treatment was continued. Two of the three patients in cohort 1 (125 mg) were escalated to 250 mg at or near the end of the fourth 28-day cycle. One of the two subjects at the escalated 250 mg dose was further escalated to 625 mg at or near the end of the tenth 28-day cycle. All three patients showed progressive disease after 187 days (6.68 cycles), 319 days (11.4 cycles) and 332 days (11.9 cycles), respectively, and treatment was discontinued. [00110] Cohort 2. The second cohort consisted of one subject diagnosed with CLL and two subjects diagnosed with B-NHL (one splenic marginal zone lymphoma and one DLBCL). The one male and two female cohort 2 patients had a median age of 69 (range of 67-76), with a median of 5 prior therapies (range of 2-5). Two of the three subjects treated in the second cohort (250 mg) showed no DLT or disease progression, and treatment was continued. The subject diagnosed with DLBCL showed progressive disease after 28 days of treatment and treatment was discontinued. One patient was escalated to 400 mg dose at or near the end of the sixth 28-day cycle. One patient was escalated to 750 mg dose at or near the end of the eleventh 28-day cycle. Both patients are currently in the thirteenth 28-day cycle. [00111] Cohort 3. The third cohort consisted of four subjects diagnosed with CLL and two subjects diagnosed with B-NHL (one marginal zone lymphoma and one follicular lymphoma). The three male and three female cohort 3 patients had a median age of 69 (range of 51-79), with a median of 2.5 prior therapies (range of 1-5). Three patients, one diagnosed with marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) and two diagnosed with CLL, treated in the third cohort (400 mg) showed no Page 34 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 DLT or disease progression and treatment was continued. The patient with marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) was escalated to 625 mg dose at or near the end of the seventh 28-day cycle. The CLL patients continued to show no DLT or disease progression and are currently in the eleventh 28-day cycle of treatment. The subject diagnosed with follicular lymphoma experienced dose limiting toxicity thrombocytopenia (low platelet count; Grade 4) and treatment was discontinued before the completion of the first 28-day cycle. The remaining CLL patients showed progressive disease, one after 168 days (six cycles) and one after 231 days (eight cycles), and treatment was discontinued. [00112] Cohort 4. The fourth cohort consisted of one subject diagnosed with CLL and five subjects diagnosed with B-NHL (three follicular lymphoma, one mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and one DLBCL). The three male and three female cohort 4 patients had a median age of 62.5 (range of 52-74), with a median of 1.5 prior therapies (range of 1-6). One patient (follicular lymphoma) showed no DLT or disease progression and continued to treatment for seven, and is currently in the eighth 28-day cycle. Four patients have exhibited progressive disease. The mantle cell lymphoma patient exhibited progressive disease after 105 days (3.75 cycles) and treatment was discontinued. The DLBCL patient exhibited progressive disease after 33 days (1.18 cycles) and treatment was discontinued. The remaining two follicular lymphoma patients exhibited progressive disease after two cycles (56 days) and 7.6 cycles (212 days), respectively, and treatment was discontinued. The CLL patient exhibited neutropenia (adverse event) after completion of three cycles (85 days) and treatment was discontinued. [00113] Cohort 5. The fifth cohort consisted of four subjects diagnosed with CLL, one subject diagnosed with B-NHL (DLBCL) and one subject diagnosed with mediastinal large B cell lymphoma (MLBCL). The four male and two female cohort 5 patients had a median age of 67 (range of 43-8 1), with a median of 3 prior therapies (range 2-6). Five patients showed no DLT or disease progression and treatment was continued. Two CLL patients have completed three, and are currently in the fourth 28-day cycle. The two remaining CLL patients have completed four, and are currently in the fifth 28-day cycle. The DLBCL patient completed five 28-day cycles before discontinuing treatment due to an unrelated adverse event. The MLBCL patient exhibited progressive disease after 64 days (2.3 cycles) and treatment was discontinued. [00114] Cohorts 6A and 6B. The sixth cohort consisted of six subjects with CLL, two subjects with Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia (WM), one subject with FL, one subject with Page 35 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 SLL, one subject with DLBCL and one subject with MCL. As of September 11, 2012 eleven patients showed no DLT or disease progression and continue to receive N-(3-(5-fluoro-2-(4-(2 methoxyethoxy)phenylamino)pyrimidin-4-ylamino)phenyl)acrylamide besylate as continuous monotherapy. Enrollment in Cohorts 6A and 6B is ongoing. [00115] Figure 1 depicts the treatment duration for cohorts 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. Figure 2 depicts the treatment duration for cohorts 6A and 6B. The dotted bars indicate subjects still on treatment as of September 11, 2012. The hashed bars indicate subjects off treatment. Each subject was administered the respective milligram dose once daily for cohorts 1-5 and 6A or twice daily for cohort 6B. [00116] Btk Occupancy. The covalent mechanism of action of N-(3-(5-fluoro-2-(4-(2 methoxyethoxy)phenylamino)pyrimidin-4-ylamino)phenyl)acrylamide besylate allowed for development of a covalent probe to detect free, uninhibited Btk in lysates derived from tissue culture, animal tissues, or clinical samples. PBMC lysates isolated from whole blood samples 30 minutes before dosing, 4 hours or 24 hours post-dose were incubated with the biotinylated covalent probe. Uninhibited Btk was captured by the covalent probe and quantitated by ELISA. Normalization to untreated control sample allowed for determination of the % Btk occupancy. [00117] Btk Target Site Occupancy ELISA: Cell lysates or spleen homogenates were incubated with 1 tM N 1 -(3-(3-(4-(3-acrylamidophenylamino)-5-methylpyrimidin-2 ylamino)phenoxy)propyl)-N 5 -(15-oxo- 19-((3aS,4S,6aR)-2-oxohexahydro- 1H-thieno[3,4 d]imidazol-4-yl)-4,7,10-trioxa-14-azanonadecyl)glutaramide (2) in a PBS, 0.05% Tween-20, 1% BSA solution for 1 h at room temperature. Compound 2 has the following structure: HN N H N N N O" NH H 0 H H O NH N 0-( s N. N H 2 Page 36 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 [00118] Standards and samples were transferred to a streptavidin-coated 96-well ELISA plate and mixed while shaking for 1 h at room temperature. The ax-Btk antibody (BD 611116, 1:1000 dilution in PBS + 0.05% Tween-20+0.5% BSA) was then incubated for 1 h at room temperature. After wash, goat ax-mouse-HRP (1:5000 dilution in PBS + 0.05% Tween-20+ 0.5% BSA) was added and incubated for 1 h at room temperature. The ELISA was developed with addition of tetramethyl benzidine (TMB) followed by Stop Solution and read at OD 450 nm. The standard curve (11.7-3000 pg/ L) was generated with human full-length recombinant Btk protein and plotted using a 4 parameter curve fit in Gen5 software. Uninhibited Btk detected from samples was normalized to tg total protein as determined by BCA protein analysis (Pierce Cat. 23225). [00119] Figure 4 depicts the Btk occupancy for cohorts 2, 3 and 4. Complete target occupancy was achieved 4 hours after N-(3-(5-fluoro-2-(4-(2 methoxyethoxy)phenylamino)pyrimidin-4-ylamino)phenyl)acrylamide besylate dosing at each dose level in all cases. Occupancy from only one of three patients in cohort 1 was evaluable and demonstrated 76% occupancy 4 hours post-dose and 36% occupancy on day 29 pre-dose. These results suggest that dose levels achieving Btk occupancy identified in N-(3-(5-fluoro-2-(4-(2 methoxyethoxy)phenylamino)pyrimidin-4-ylamino)phenyl)acrylamide besylate also deliver complete occupancy with repeated once daily dosing in patients with CLL and B-NHL. Btk occupancy for cohorts 5, 6A and 6B are under evaluation. [00120] Adverse Events. Figure 5 depicts the adverse events reported for cohorts 1, 2, 3, 4 and initial cohort 5 through May 22, 2012. Adverse events for expanded cohort 5, as well as cohorts 6A and 6B, are under review. [00121] Subjects in cohort 1 reported incidences of contusion (bruising) (2 patients), diarrhea (3 patients), nausea (1 patient), upper respiratory infection (2 patients), fatigue (2 patients), headache (2 patients), pneumonia (1 patient), thrombocytopenia (1 patient), dyspnea (1 patient), lymph node pain (2 patients), dyspepsia (1 patient), abdominal distension (1 patient), jaw pain (1 patient), muscle spasm (1 patient), weight loss (1 patient), rash (1 patient), urticaria (1 patient) and sinusitis (1 patient). [00122] Subjects in cohort 2 reported incidences of decreased diarrhea (2 patients), nausea (1 patient), fatigue (1 patient), pneumonia (1 patient), cough (1 patient), dyspnea (1 patient), dysgeusia (1 patient), neutropenia (1 patient), abdominal distension (1 patient) and weight loss (1 patient). Page 37 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 [00123] Subjects in cohort 3 reported incidences of diarrhea (4 patients), upper respiratory infection (2 patients), pneumonia (1 patient), thrombocytopenia (3 patients), neutropenia (2 patients), cough (2 patients), headache (1 patient), fatigue (1 patient), anemia (1 patient), jaw pain (1 patient), muscle spasm (1 patient), influenza-like illness (1 patient), rash (1 patient), urticaria (1 patient), urinary retention (1 patient) and insomnia (1 patient). [00124] Subjects in cohort 4 reported incidences of diarrhea 5 patients), nausea (2 patients), thrombocytopenia (1 patient), headache (2 patients), neutropenia (1 patient), abdominal pain (2 patients), dyspepsia (2 patients), dysgeusia (2 patients), anemia (1 patient), influenza-like illness (1 patient), dehydration (2 patients), urinary retention (1 patient), insomnia (1 patient), eye pain (2 patients) and sinusitis (1 patient). [00125] Subjects in cohort 5 reported incidences of diarrhea (1 patient) and abdominal pain (1 patient). [00126] Adverse events reported were severity Grade 1 and 2 except for decreased ANC (neutropenia), pneumonia and thrombocytopenia. Four (4) patients reported Grade 3-4 thrombocytopenia. Two (2) patients reported Grade 3-4 pneumonia. Three (3) patients reported Grade 3-4 neutropenia. [00127] Besides the DLT reported for the follicular lymphoma patient in cohort 3, no other DLTs have occurred and MTD has not been reached. Serious adverse events not related to the study include disseminated Herpes zoster (1 patient in cohort 1), pneumonia (1 patient in cohort 1), atrial fibrillation (1 patient in cohort 2), hematuria/urinary retention (1 patient in cohort 3), pneumonia/thrombocytopenia/ANC decreased (1 patient in cohort 3) and tonsillar hypertrophy (1 patient in cohort 4). [00128] Most frequent treatment emergent AEs (TEAEs) (defined as an adverse event reported for at least 2 subjects regardless of dose) included grade 1 or 2 transient diarrhea (15/21; 71.4%), grade 1 or 2 headache (5/21; 23.8%), and thrombocytopenia (5/21; 23.8%). The most common Grade 3/4 adverse events included neutropenia (3/21; probably related), pneumonia (2/21; probably related) and thrombocytopenia (4/21; probably related). [00129] Lymph Node Size in CLL Patients. Figure 6 depicts the change in lymph node size in CLL patients with available lymph node assessment, twelve (12) of whom are from cohorts 1 5. These patients have experienced some degree of lymph node reduction: 2/12 patients have experienced nodal response (>50% reduction); 6/12 patients have experienced between 25 and Page 38 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 50% reduction over the treatment and follow-up periods indicated in the figure. The doses indicated refer to the patient's starting dose. The numbers at the top of each bar indicate the number of cycles completed for each subject as of the last available lymph node measurement. [00130] Absolute Lymphocyte Count in CLL Patients. Figure 7 depicts the change in absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) in CLL patients. As of September 11, 2012, eleven (11) of fifteen (15) CLL patients in cohorts 1-6A/B who had completed at least one 28-day cycle and for whom absolute lymphocyte counts (ALC) were available exhibited early increases (> 25%) in absolute lymphocyte counts (ALC) during the first 28-day cycle, which was consistent with the hypothesis that the API affects CLL lymphocyte trafficking. Figure 7 shows the increase or decrease in ALC from baseline to C1D8 (cycle 1, day 8) as well as the percentage change in ALC from baseline to the maximum observed at any time during cycle 1 up to and including day 29 (cycle 2, day 1 or C2D1). All CLL subjects with follow-up through cycle 1 at all dose levels are shown. Subjects treated with 750 mg or higher are indicated under the dotted line. [00131] Lymph Node Size in NHL Patients. Six B-NHL patients exhibited decreased lymph node size. Figure 8 depicts the lymph node size percent change for those B-NHL patients who have had a baseline lymph node measurement and at least one follow-up measurement post treatment. The doses indicated refer to the patient's starting dose. The numbers at the top of each bar indicate the number of cycles completed for each subject as of the last available lymph node measurement. One patient with FL is not displayed because the patient was withdrawn from the study in the first cycle of treatment for DLT and was not evaluable for response. [00132] Observations. Across the first five doses, once daily dosing with 125 mg, 250 mg, 400 mg, 625 mg and 750 mg N-(3-(5-fluoro-2-(4-(2-methoxyethoxy)phenylamino)pyrimidin-4 ylamino)phenyl)acrylamide besylate was found to be generally safe and well-tolerated. As of September 11, 2012, twenty-one (21) of thirty-six (36) patients in cohorts 1-6A/B continue on treatment, with a median time of treatment of 77.5 days (range of 9-357days). PK exposure (AUCast) was linear with no accumulation from Day I to 15. Full Btk occupancy was achieved with dose levels > 250 mg QD and PK was predictable with no accumulation. Additional study of 750 mg QD is ongoing. MTD has not yet been reached and cohort expansion is planned. Page 39 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 Example 2 Diagnosis-Specific Expansion Cohorts [00133] After completion of observation for DLTs in Example 1, the accumulated safety, PK, and PD data from Example 1 were evaluated to select a preliminary recommended Phase 2 dose for administration to additional subjects enrolled into an independent and non-randomized diagnosis-specific expansion cohorts in the Diagnosis Specific Expansion Cohorts study. Cohort A: Relapsed and/or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL); Cohort B: Relapsed and/or refractory indolent and mantle B-cell lymphomas, Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia, and other B lymphoproliferative disorders of uncertain malignant potential (at least 10 of the 24 enrollment slots will be reserved for subjects with mantle cell lymphoma); and Cohort C: Relapsed and/or refractory CLL/SLL. [00134] Study Results: Cohort C. 24 subjects were enrolled into the CLL expansion cohort C and were assessed for safety, tolerability, DLT, PK, PD and disease response. Each subject was evaluated prior to enrollment to ensure that minimum hematological criteria were satisfied: Table 5. Minimum Hematological Criteria CLL Platelets >30,000/mm 3 Absolute Neutrophil Count 21,000/mm 3 (ANC) Hemoglobin (Hgb) >8 g/dL [00135] Within cohort C, 24 subjects were treated 750 mg po QD with N-(3-(5-fluoro-2-(4-(2 methoxyethoxy)phenylamino)pyrimidin-4-ylamino)phenyl)acrylamide besylate as monotherapy Page 40 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 during an initial 28-day treatment cycle and were assessed for safety, tolerability, DLT, PK, PD, and disease response. [00136] All subjects enrolled in expansion cohort C were continuously evaluated for DLTs (see DLT definitions below). Twenty-four patients showed no DLT and twenty-three patients showed no disease progression and continue to receive N-(3-(5-fluoro-2-(4-(2 methoxyethoxy)phenylamino)pyrimidin-4-ylamino)phenyl)acrylamide besylate as continuous monotherapy. One patient exhibited progressive disease after 73 days (2.6 cycles) and treatment was discontinued. Figure 3 depicts the treatment duration of the CLL expansion cohort C through September 11, 2012. [00137] Figure 6 depicts the change in lymph node size in CLL patients with available lymph node assessment, eleven (11) of whom are from Expansion Cohort C. These patients have experienced some degree of lymph node reduction: 1/11 patients has experienced nodal response (>50% reduction); 6/11 patients have experienced between 25 and 50% reduction over the treatment and follow-up periods indicated in the figure. [00138] As of September 11, 2012, seventeen (17) of eighteen (18) patients enrolled in the CLL Expansion Cohort C who had completed at least one 28-day cycle and for whom absolute lymphocyte counts (ALC) were available exhibited early increases (> 25%) in absolute lymphocyte counts (ALC) during the first 28-day cycle, which was consistent with the hypothesis that the API affects CLL lymphocyte trafficking. The ALC for expansion cohort C are presented in Figure 7. [00139] A similar protocol will be used for expansion cohorts A and B. In particular, however, if in any specific expansion cohort >9 subjects experience DLT, then all future subjects enrolling in that specific expansion cohort and subjects then currently still in Cycle 1 of that specific cohort will be dose reduced by 1 dose level (per Table 2). In the event that 2 or more subjects in any specific expansion cohort experience the same DLT of grade > 4, then all subjects in that cohort will be reduced by 1 dose level, and the investigators and Sponsor will determine whether to apply the dose reduction to all 3 expansion cohorts. If applicable, this dose reduction will also apply to any subjects from Example 2 who entered the Continuation Phase and were intra-subject dose escalated to the initial preliminary recommended Phase 2 dose. Page 41 of 48 2007878-0280 5525323v2 Example 3 Continuation Phase of Treatment [00140] In both Dose Escalation and Diagnosis-Specific Expansion Cohort studies, subjects who complete the first 28-day cycle of therapy will be evaluated for entry into a Continuation Phase of the study. Subjects will be eligible for continuation if: 1) they demonstrate no evidence of disease progression; 2) in the opinion of the investigator, they are deemed likely to continue to benefit from treatment; and 3) they have not experienced any toxicity requiring discontinuation. Subjects with CLL experiencing nodal response with lymphocytosis will also be eligible for additional treatment. Subjects with WM with increased serum IgM levels at the end of 6 cycles of treatment should also be evaluated for lymphadenopathy/organomegaly and marrow infiltration. Investigators may use judgment in determining whether to continue these subjects into continuation cycles if there is a discordant response between increased IgM and stable or decreased lymphadenopathy/organomegaly and marrow infiltration. During continuation therapy, subjects will continue to receive N-(3-(5-fluoro-2-(4-(2 methoxyethoxy)phenylamino)pyrimidin-4-ylamino)phenyl)acrylamide besylate as monotherapy in 28-day cycles until unacceptable toxicity or the subject or investigator decide to discontinue treatment for any reason.
