- valproic acid (VPA-pan-HDAC inhibitor) (Stamatopoulos B, et al, Leukemia 2009; 23(12): 2281-9) and MGCD0103 (class I) (Blum KA, et al, Br J Haematol 2009; 147(4): 507-14) induced antileukemic activity in CLL, however undesirable side-effects due to non- selectivity remains to be a significant concern.
- HDACs role in BCR signaling pathways is still under investigation.
- This acknowledged disparity can be attributed, at least in part, to (1) the pan- inhibitory effect of HDAC inhibitors targeting all 11 zinc-dependent HDACs, and (2) the intrinsic differences in the expression profile of these enzymes between different cell types in both physiological and pathological conditions. Therefore, a desirable focus is on

- Example 5 Other materials and methods
- PBMCs peripheral blood mononuclear cells
- Compound A is an injectable (i.p.) form of HDAC6 inhibitor currently in use for clinical trials in multiple myeloma and lymphoma.
- Compound D is a selective HDAC6 inhibitor which can be made available in animal feed ("chow") which provides constant but low level exposure.
- Example 6 HDAC6 is over expressed in human primary B-CLL and modulation of its expression alters cell viability in CLL cell lines
- FIDAC6 expression Using RT-PCR analysis of twenty B-CLL with Rai stages ranging from 0-4, fifteen of twenty patients show elevated FIDAC6 expression (Fig. 1A). Viability of CLL cell line Mecl in this experiment was determined using MTS CellTiter 96® (Promega) analysis, and the results are shown in Fig. IB. Two polyclonal FIDAC6KD cells were developed by stably transfecting them with HDAC6 shRNA (Sigma-Plasmid M_006044), and subsequently analyzed for viability and compared to non-targeted control counterpart (Fig. IB-Left part). Mecl cells were transfected with increasing concentrations of FIDAC6 over-expressing (H60E) plasmid following viability analysis. Next, Mecl cells were treated with two FIDAC6 inhibitors at various doses and assessed for viability by MTS (Fig. IB-Right part).
- OSU-CLL cells were treated with Compound A (Fig. 2A) or Compound D (Fig. 2B) for 48 hours and cells death was measured using cellTox assay SyTox® Green (Promega). Mecl cells treated with Compound A for 24 hours and stimulated with LPS show a dose- dependent decrease in IL-10 production (important B cell survival factor) (Fig. 2C).
- Example 8 Treatment ofCLL cell lines with Compound A and Ibrutinib, synergistically decreases viability and alters BCR signaling pathway
- the activity of the combination of drugs was determined using the CellTiter-Blue (Promega) cell viability assay after a 72 hour treatment in Mecl (Fig. 3A) and OSU-CLL (Fig. 3B) cells.
- the results were analyzed for synergism using the combination index (CI) method developed by Chou & Talalay (Chou TC. Cancer research 2010; 70(2): 440-6).
- Mecl cells were treated with Compound A at varying doses (0.5 and 1 ⁇ ) alone or in combination with ibrutinib (0.2 and 1 ⁇ ) for 24 hrs. and blotted for PARP and pERK (Fig. 3C).
- Example 9 Biological or pharmacological manipulation ofHDA C6 reduces disease burden and renders survival advantage
- mice from eu-TCLl and euTCLl/HDAC6KO groups were selected and aged up to 300 days (corresponding to the day the last euTCLl expired) (Fig. 4A).
- euTCLl mice succumbed to disease starting day 200 while ALL eu-TCLl/HDAC6KO mice survived (panel insert).
- Spleens from these mice were measured post-mortem and compared (p value ⁇ 0.0005***) (Fig. 4A).
- mice treated with Compound D showed significantly lower disease burden (9 months old/25 weeks post treatment start date) than mice treated without Compound D (Fig. 4C).
- mice receiving Compound D treatment have a more advantageous overall survival (Top of Fig. 4D) and significantly lower disease burden (Bottom of Fig. 4D).
- mice treated with Compound D have a more advantageous overall survival than mice not treated with Compound D (Fig. 4E). As shown, at around day 350, all mice not treated with Compound D (NT) have succumbed to the disease.

- CD279 PD-1
- CD274 PDL-1
- CD273 PDL-2
- Example 11 The Combination of BTK inhibitors and Compound D causes significantly lower disease burden in a mouse model .
- mice receiving a combination of Compound D and Ibrutinib demonstrated significantly lower disease burden (Fig. 6A).
- Fig. 6A mice receiving a combination of Compound D and Ibrutinib demonstrated significantly lower disease burden.
- a further decrease in tumor burden was found when compared to treatment with either compound alone. This observed effect on tumor burden occurred in conjuction with decreases in co-inhibitory molecules and circulating T-reg frequency.
- the combination was well tolerated and no significant toxicity was observed.
- mice receiving a combination of Compound D and Ibrutinib demonstrated significant advantageous overall survival when compared with mice receiving either Compound D or Ibrutinib alone (Fig. 6B). As shown, at the latest time point, all mice have succumbed to the disease except for the combination group.
