Definitions

  • a pharmaceutical combination comprising: (a) a phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase inhibitor selected from 5-(2,6-di-morpholin-4-yl-pyrimidin-4-yl)-4-trifluoromethyl-pyridin-2-ylamine, (S)-Pyrrolidine-1,2-dicarboxylic acid 2-amide 1-( ⁇ 4-methyl-5-[2-(2,2,2-trifluoro-1,1-dimethyl-ethyl)-pyridin-4-yl]-thiazol-2-yl ⁇ -amide) or any pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and (b) a gonadorelin agonist and, optionally, (c) an antiestrogen agent, particularly for use in the treatment or prevention of a cancer; uses of such a combination in the preparation of a medicament for the treatment or prevention of a cancer; pharmaceutical compositions of the combination of said therapeutic agents and methods of treating a cancer in a subject comprising administering to said subject a therapeutically effective amount of such a combination.
  • Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases comprise a family of lipid and serine/threonine kinases that catalyze the transfer of phosphate to the D-3′ position of inositol lipids to produce phosphoinositol-3-phosphate (PIP), phosphoinositol-3,4-diphosphate (PIP2) and phosphoinositol-3,4,5-triphosphate (PIP3) that, in turn, act as second messengers in signaling cascades by docking proteins containing pleckstrin-homology, FYVE, Phox and other phospholipid-binding domains into a variety of signaling complexes often at the plasma membrane (Vanhaesebroeck et al., Annu.
  • Class 1A PI3Ks are heterodimers composed of a catalytic p110 subunit ( ⁇ , ⁇ , ⁇ isoforms) constitutively associated with a regulatory subunit that can be p85 ⁇ , p55 ⁇ , p50 ⁇ , p85 ⁇ or p55 ⁇ .
  • the Class 1B sub-class has one family member, a heterodimer composed of a catalytic p110 ⁇ subunit associated with one of two regulatory subunits, p101 or p84 (Fruman et al., Annu Rev. Biochem.
  • the modular domains of the p85/55/50 subunits include Src Homology (SH2) domains that bind phosphotyrosine residues in a specific sequence context on activated receptor and cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases, resulting in activation and localization of Class 1A PI3Ks.
  • Class 1B PI3K is activated directly by G protein-coupled receptors that bind a diverse repertoire of peptide and non-peptide ligands (Stephens et al., Cell 89:105 (1997)); Katso et al., Annu. Rev. Cell Dev. Biol.
  • PI3K inhibitors are useful therapeutic compounds for the treatment of various conditions in humans. Aberrant regulation of PI3K is one of the most prevalent events in human cancer and has been shown to occur at multiple levels.
  • the tumor suppressor gene PTEN which dephosphorylates phosphoinositides at the 3′ position of the inositol ring and in so doing antagonizes PI3K activity, is functionally deleted in a variety of tumors.
  • the genes for the p110 ⁇ isoform, PIK3CA, and for Akt are amplified and increased protein expression of their gene products has been demonstrated in several human cancers.
  • PI3K inhibitors are believed to have a strong beneficial interaction (e.g, synergistic) and/or improved anti-proliferative activity when used in combination with a gonadorelin agonist, particularly when further combined with an antiestrogen agent. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide for a medicament to improve treatment of cancer.
