Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of treating cancer in a mammal and to combinations useful in such treatment.
- the method relates to a novel combination comprising a proteasome inhibiting compound, and the Akt inhibitor: N- ⁇ (1S)-2-amino-1-[(3-fluorophenyl)methyl]ethyl ⁇ -5-chloro-4-(4-chloro-1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-2-thiophenecarboxamide, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and optional additional antineoplastic agents; pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same; and methods of using such combinations in the treatment of cancer.
- cancer results from the deregulation of the normal processes that control cell division, differentiation and apoptotic cell death.
- Apoptosis (programmed cell death) plays essential roles in embryonic development and pathogenesis of various diseases, such as degenerative neuronal diseases, cardiovascular diseases and cancer.
- One of the most commonly studied pathways, which involves kinase regulation of apoptosis, is cellular signaling from growth factor receptors at the cell surface to the nucleus (Crews and Erikson, Cell, 74:215-17, 1993).
- Apoptosis plays essential roles in embryonic development and pathogenesis of various diseases, such as degenerative neuronal diseases, cardiovascular diseases and cancer. Recent work has led to the identification of various pro- and anti-apoptotic gene products that are involved in the regulation or execution of programmed cell death. Expression of anti-apoptotic genes, such as Bcl2 or Bcl-x L , inhibits apoptotic cell death induced by various stimuli. On the other hand, expression of pro-apoptotic genes, such as Bax or Bad, leads to programmed cell death (Adams et al. Science, 281:1322-1326 (1998)). The execution of programmed cell death is mediated by caspase-1 related proteinases, including caspase-3, caspase-7, caspase-8 and caspase-9 etc (Thomberry et al. Science, 281:1312-1316 (1998)).
- PI3K phosphatidylinositol 3′-OH kinase
- Akt/PKB pathway appears important for regulating cell survival/cell death (Kulik et al. Mol. Cell. Biol. 17:1595-1606 (1997); Franke et al, Cell, 88:435-437 (1997); Kauffmann-Zeh et al. Nature 385:544-548 (1997) Hemmings Science, 275:628-630 (1997); Dudek et al., Science, 275:661-665 (1997)).
- PDGF platelet derived growth factor
- NEF nerve growth factor
- IGF-I insulin-like growth factor-1
- Activated PI3K leads to the production of phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-triphosphate (PtdIns (3,4,5)-P3), which in turn binds to, and promotes the activation of, the serine/threonine kinase Akt, which contains a pleckstrin homology (PH)-domain (Franke et al Cell, 81:727-736 (1995); Hemmings Science, 277:534 (1997); Downward, Curr. Opin. Cell Biol. 10:262-267 (1998), Alessi et al., EMBO J. 15: 6541-6551 (1996)).
- PtdIns (3,4,5)-P3 phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-triphosphate
- PI3K or dominant negative Akt/PKB mutants abolish survival-promoting activities of these growth factors or cytokines. It has been previously disclosed that inhibitors of PI3K (LY294002 or wortmannin) blocked the activation of Akt/PKB by upstream kinases. In addition, introduction of constitutively active PI3K or Akt/PKB mutants promotes cell survival under conditions in which cells normally undergo apoptotic cell death (Kulik et al. 1997, Dudek et al. 1997).
- Akt2 is overexpressed in a significant number of ovarian (J. Q. Cheung et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci . U.S.A. 89:9267-9271(1992)) and pancreatic cancers (J. Q. Cheung et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci . U.S.A. 93:3636-3641 (1996)).
- Akt3 was found to be overexpressed in breast and prostate cancer cell lines (Nakatani et al. J. Biol. Chem. 274:21528-21532 (1999).
- Akt-2 was over-expressed in 12% of ovarian carcinomas and that amplification of Akt was especially frequent in 50% of undifferentiated tumors, suggesting that Akt may also be associated with tumor aggressiveness (Bellacosa, et al., Int. J. Cancer, 64, pp. 280-285, 1995). Increased Akt1 kinase activity has been reported in breast, ovarian and prostate cancers (Sun et al. Am. J. Pathol. 159:431-7 (2001)).
- the tumor suppressor PTEN a protein and lipid phosphatase that specifically removes the 3′ phosphate of PtdIns(3,4,5)-P3, is a negative regulator of the PI3K/Akt pathway (Li et al. Science 275:1943-1947 (1997), Stambolic et al. Cell 95:29-39 (1998), Sun et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci . U.S.A. 96:6199-6204 (1999)).
- Germline mutations of PTEN are responsible for human cancer syndromes such as Cowden disease (Liaw et al. Nature Genetics 16:64-67 (1997)).
- PTEN is deleted in a large percentage of human tumors and tumor cell lines without functional PTEN show elevated levels of activated Akt (Li et al. supra, Guidberg et al. Cancer Research 57:3660-3663 (1997), Risinger et al. Cancer Research 57:4736-4738 (1997)).

Abstract
Description
- This application is a Continuation of application Ser. No. 14/831,261, filed Aug. 20, 2015, which is a Continuation of application Ser. No. 13/978,765, filed Jul. 9, 2013, Abandoned, which is a National Stage entry of Application No. PCT/US20121020863 filed Jan. 11, 2012, which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61/431,508 filed Jan. 11, 2011.
- The present invention relates to a method of treating cancer in a mammal and to combinations useful in such treatment. In particular, the method relates to a novel combination comprising a proteasome inhibiting compound, and the Akt inhibitor: N-{(1S)-2-amino-1-[(3-fluorophenyl)methyl]ethyl}-5-chloro-4-(4-chloro-1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-2-thiophenecarboxamide, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and optional additional antineoplastic agents; pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same; and methods of using such combinations in the treatment of cancer.
- Generally, cancer results from the deregulation of the normal processes that control cell division, differentiation and apoptotic cell death. Apoptosis (programmed cell death) plays essential roles in embryonic development and pathogenesis of various diseases, such as degenerative neuronal diseases, cardiovascular diseases and cancer. One of the most commonly studied pathways, which involves kinase regulation of apoptosis, is cellular signaling from growth factor receptors at the cell surface to the nucleus (Crews and Erikson, Cell, 74:215-17, 1993).
- Apoptosis (programmed cell death) plays essential roles in embryonic development and pathogenesis of various diseases, such as degenerative neuronal diseases, cardiovascular diseases and cancer. Recent work has led to the identification of various pro- and anti-apoptotic gene products that are involved in the regulation or execution of programmed cell death. Expression of anti-apoptotic genes, such as Bcl2 or Bcl-xL, inhibits apoptotic cell death induced by various stimuli. On the other hand, expression of pro-apoptotic genes, such as Bax or Bad, leads to programmed cell death (Adams et al. Science, 281:1322-1326 (1998)). The execution of programmed cell death is mediated by caspase-1 related proteinases, including caspase-3, caspase-7, caspase-8 and caspase-9 etc (Thomberry et al. Science, 281:1312-1316 (1998)).
- The phosphatidylinositol 3′-OH kinase (PI3K)/Akt/PKB pathway appears important for regulating cell survival/cell death (Kulik et al. Mol. Cell. Biol. 17:1595-1606 (1997); Franke et al, Cell, 88:435-437 (1997); Kauffmann-Zeh et al. Nature 385:544-548 (1997) Hemmings Science, 275:628-630 (1997); Dudek et al., Science, 275:661-665 (1997)). Survival factors, such as platelet derived growth factor (PDGF), nerve growth factor (NGF) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-I), promote cell survival under various conditions by inducing the activity of PI3K (Kulik et al. 1997, Hemmings 1997). Activated PI3K leads to the production of phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-triphosphate (PtdIns (3,4,5)-P3), which in turn binds to, and promotes the activation of, the serine/threonine kinase Akt, which contains a pleckstrin homology (PH)-domain (Franke et al Cell, 81:727-736 (1995); Hemmings Science, 277:534 (1997); Downward, Curr. Opin. Cell Biol. 10:262-267 (1998), Alessi et al., EMBO J. 15: 6541-6551 (1996)). Specific inhibitors of PI3K or dominant negative Akt/PKB mutants abolish survival-promoting activities of these growth factors or cytokines. It has been previously disclosed that inhibitors of PI3K (LY294002 or wortmannin) blocked the activation of Akt/PKB by upstream kinases. In addition, introduction of constitutively active PI3K or Akt/PKB mutants promotes cell survival under conditions in which cells normally undergo apoptotic cell death (Kulik et al. 1997, Dudek et al. 1997).
- Analysis of Akt levels in human tumors showed that Akt2 is overexpressed in a significant number of ovarian (J. Q. Cheung et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 89:9267-9271(1992)) and pancreatic cancers (J. Q. Cheung et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 93:3636-3641 (1996)). Similarly, Akt3 was found to be overexpressed in breast and prostate cancer cell lines (Nakatani et al. J. Biol. Chem. 274:21528-21532 (1999). It was demonstrated that Akt-2 was over-expressed in 12% of ovarian carcinomas and that amplification of Akt was especially frequent in 50% of undifferentiated tumors, suggesting that Akt may also be associated with tumor aggressiveness (Bellacosa, et al., Int. J. Cancer, 64, pp. 280-285, 1995). Increased Akt1 kinase activity has been reported in breast, ovarian and prostate cancers (Sun et al. Am. J. Pathol. 159:431-7 (2001)).
- The tumor suppressor PTEN, a protein and lipid phosphatase that specifically removes the 3′ phosphate of PtdIns(3,4,5)-P3, is a negative regulator of the PI3K/Akt pathway (Li et al. Science 275:1943-1947 (1997), Stambolic et al. Cell 95:29-39 (1998), Sun et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 96:6199-6204 (1999)). Germline mutations of PTEN are responsible for human cancer syndromes such as Cowden disease (Liaw et al. Nature Genetics 16:64-67 (1997)). PTEN is deleted in a large percentage of human tumors and tumor cell lines without functional PTEN show elevated levels of activated Akt (Li et al. supra, Guidberg et al. Cancer Research 57:3660-3663 (1997), Risinger et al. Cancer Research 57:4736-4738 (1997)).
- These observations demonstrate that the PI3K/Akt pathway plays important roles for regulating cell survival or apoptosis in tumorigenesis and/or cancer.

- The method of the present invention may also be employed with other therapeutic methods of cancer treatment.
- While it is possible that, for use in therapy, therapeutically effective amounts of the combinations of the present invention may be administered as the raw chemical, it is preferable to present the combinations as a pharmaceutical composition or compositions. Accordingly, the invention further provides pharmaceutical compositions, which include Compound A2 and/or Compound B2, and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. The combinations of the present invention are as described above. The carrier(s) must be acceptable in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation, capable of pharmaceutical formulation, and not deleterious to the recipient thereof. In accordance with another aspect of the invention there is also provided a process for the preparation of a pharmaceutical formulation including admixing Compound A2 and/or Compound B2 with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. As indicated above, such elements of the pharmaceutical combination utilized may be presented in separate pharmaceutical compositions or formulated together in one pharmaceutical formulation.
- Pharmaceutical formulations may be presented in unit dose forms containing a predetermined amount of active ingredient per unit dose. As is known to those skilled in the art, the amount of active ingredient per dose will depend on the condition being treated, the route of administration and the age, weight and condition of the patient. Preferred unit dosage formulations are those containing a daily dose or sub-dose, or an appropriate fraction thereof, of an active ingredient. Furthermore, such pharmaceutical formulations may be prepared by any of the methods well known in the pharmacy art.
- Compound A2 and Compound B2 may be administered by any appropriate route. Suitable routes include oral, rectal, nasal, topical (including buccal and sublingual), vaginal, and parenteral (including subcutaneous, intramuscular, intravenous, intradermal, intrathecal, and epidural). It will be appreciated that the preferred route may vary with, for example, the condition of the recipient of the combination and the cancer to be treated. It will also be appreciated that each of the agents administered may be administered by the same or different routes and that Compound A2 and Compound B2 may be compounded together in a pharmaceutical composition/formulation. Suitably, Compound A2 and Compound B2 are administered in separate pharmaceutical compositions.
- The compounds or combinations of the current invention are incorporated into convenient dosage forms such as capsules, tablets, or injectable preparations. Solid or liquid pharmaceutical carriers are employed. Solid carriers include, starch, lactose, calcium sulfate dihydrate, terra alba, sucrose, talc, gelatin, agar, pectin, acacia, magnesium stearate, and stearic acid. Liquid carriers include syrup, peanut oil, olive oil, saline, and water. Similarly, the carrier may include a prolonged release material, such as glyceryl monostearate or glyceryl distearate, alone or with a wax. The amount of solid carrier varies widely but, suitably, may be from about 25 mg to about 1 g per dosage unit. When a liquid carrier is used, the preparation will suitably be in the form of a syrup, elixir, emulsion, soft gelatin capsule, sterile injectable liquid such as an ampoule, or an aqueous or nonaqueous liquid suspension.
- For instance, for oral administration in the form of a tablet or capsule, the active drug component can be combined with an oral, non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable inert carrier such as ethanol, glycerol, water and the like. Powders are prepared by comminuting the compound to a suitable fine size and mixing with a similarly comminuted pharmaceutical carrier such as an edible carbohydrate, as, for example, starch or mannitol. Flavoring, preservative, dispersing and coloring agent can also be present.
- It should be understood that in addition to the ingredients mentioned above, the formulations may include other agents conventional in the art having regard to the type of formulation in question, for example those suitable for oral administration may include flavoring agents.
- As indicated, therapeutically effective amounts of the combinations of the invention (Compound A2 in combination with Compound B2) are administered to a human. Typically, the therapeutically effective amount of the administered agents of the present invention will depend upon a number of factors including, for example, the age and weight of the subject, the precise condition requiring treatment, the severity of the condition, the nature of the formulation, and the route of administration. Ultimately, the therapeutically effective amount will be at the discretion of the attending physician.
- The combinations of the invention are tested for efficacy, advantageous and synergistic properties generally according to known procedures. For example:
- Method:
- Female SCID mice are implanted subcutaneously with 1×106 NCl-H929 cells or small tumor fragments arising from RPMI-8226 cells (both human multiple myeloma). When the tumor volume reaches 200-300 mm3, mice are block randomized to different treatment groups (n=8 mice/group). Mice receive AKT inhibitor, Compound B (in this assay, Compound B, is used in the form of the hydrochloride salt), at 30 or 100 mg/kg, once daily (SID) for the duration of study or 30 mg/kg, twice daily (BID) for the duration of study in 20% PEG-400, 1% DMSO in water by oral gavage. Compound A2 is administered at 0.5 or 1.0 mg/kg, intraperitoneally at twice/week for the duration of study either alone or in combination with Compound B. Optional additional antineoplastic agents may also be added. Mice are weighed and tumors measured by calipers twice weekly. Tumor volumes are calculated using the formula: tumor volume=(Length×Width2)/2. The percentage of tumor growth inhibition is calculated on each day of tumor measurement using the formula: 100×[1−(average growth of the compound-treated tumors/average growth of vehicle-treated control tumors)]. Data is plotted as mean±sem for tumor volume for each group and is reported in
FIGS. 1 to 3 below. - Generally, the combinations of the present invention are tested for efficacy, advantageous and synergistic properties according to known procedures such as described below.
- Suitably, the combinations of the invention are tested for efficacy, advantageous and synergistic properties generally according to the following combination cell proliferation assays. Cells are plated in 96 or 384-well plates at 500-5000 cells/well in culture media appropriate for each cell type, supplemented with 10% FBS and 1% penicillin/streptomycin, and incubated overnight at 37° C., 5% CO2. Cells are treated in a grid manner with dilution of Compound A2 (8 dilutions, including no compound, of 3-fold dilutions starting from 0.1-30 μM depending on combination) from left to right on 96-well plate and also treated with Compound B2 (8 dilutions, including no compound, of 3-fold dilutions starting from 1-30 μM depending on combination) from top to bottom on 96-well plate and incubated as above for a further 72 hours. Optional additional antineoplastic agents may also be added. In some instances compounds are added in a staggered manner and incubation time can be extended up to 7 days. Cell growth is measured using CellTiter-Glo® reagent according to the manufacturer's protocol and signals are read on a PerkinElmer EnVision™ reader set for luminescence mode with a 0.5-second read. Data are analyzed as described below.
- Results are expressed as a percentage of control (untreated cells) and decrease in signal for each single agent at various concentrations is compared with the combination treatment at respective single agent concentrations. Alternatively, the results are expressed as a percentage of the t=0 value and plotted against compound(s) concentration. The t=0 value is normalized to 100% and represents the number of cells present at the time of compound addition. The cellular response is determined for each compound and/or compound combination using a 4- or 6-parameter curve fit of cell viability against concentration using the IDBS XLfit plug-in for Microsoft Excel software and determining the concentration required for 50% inhibition of cell growth (gIC50). Background correction is made by subtraction of values from wells containing no cells. For each drug combination a Combination Index (CI), Excess Over Highest Single Agent (EOHSA) and Excess Over Bliss (EOBliss) are calculated according to known methods such as described in Chou and Talalay (1984) Advances in Enzyme Regulation, 22, 37 to 55; and Berenbaum, M C (1981) Adv. Cancer Research, 35, 269-335.
