Definitions
- compositions and methods useful for treating cancer are provided.
- Cancer is a significant health problem despite the many advances made for detecting and treating this disease.
- Current strategies for managing cancer rely on early diagnosis and aggressive treatment. Treatment options often include surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, hormone therapy, or a combination thereof. While such therapies provide a benefit to many patients, there is still a need for better therapeutic agents to treat various types of cancer.
- Prostate cancer, breast cancer, and lung cancer are leading causes of cancer-related death.
- Prostate cancer is the most common form of cancer among males, with an estimated incidence of 30% in men over the age of 50.
- clinical evidence indicates that human prostate cancer has the propensity to metastasize to bone, and the disease appears to progress inevitably from androgen dependent to androgen refractory status, leading to increased patient mortality.
- Breast cancer remains a leading cause of death in women. Its cumulative risk is relatively high; certain reports indicate that approximately one in eight women are expected to develop some type of breast cancer by age 85 in the United States.
- lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related death, and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for about 80% of these cases.
- NSCLC non-small cell lung cancer

- a suitable daily dose of the first kinase inhibitor or the second kinase inhibitor is that amount of the first kinase inhibitor or the second kinase inhibitor which is the lowest dose effective to produce a therapeutic effect.
- Such an effective dose will generally depend upon the factors described above.
- the effective daily dose of the active compound may be administered as two, three, four, five, six or more sub-doses administered separately at appropriate intervals throughout the day, optionally, in unit dosage forms, e.g., one administration per day.
- kits useful for treating or preventing a cardiovascular disorder or reducing risk of a cardiovascular event as described herein.
- the kits comprise the first kinase inhibitor or the second kinase inhibitor and instructions for its use.
- each of the first kinase inhibitor or the second kinase inhibitor is present in a separate composition.
- the first kinase inhibitor and the second kinase inhibitor are present in the same composition.
- the invention also provides the first kinase inhibitor and the second kinase inhibitor as described herein and compositions comprising an effective amount of the first kinase inhibitor and the second kinase inhibitor as described herein for use in the methods described herein.
- Example 1 Sensitivity of cancer cell lines to individual kinase inhibitor
- a single agent selected from Erlotinib, AST-1306, CUDC-101, Buparlisib, and Ponatinib.
- the cell lines were continuously exposed to varying concentrations of each individual inhibitor for at least 24-72 hours. Cells were harvested at 24, 48, 72 hours after the treatment started.
- the cell sensitivity/viability response was tested using the MTT assay.
- the conversion of MTT into formazan by viable cells was assessed by a microplate reader at 570 nm. The results are presented as a percentage of the viability of untreated cells (control), which are regarded as 100 % viable.
- the MTT assay used in this study was described previously (Ling, Y- H et al., Cancer Res. (1993) 53(7): l583-l 589.)
- Example 2 Combination effects of Erlotinib and other kinase inhibitors on cancer cells in vitro
- Example 3 Combination effects of Erlotinib and other kinase inhibitors with sequential treatment on cancer cells in vitro
- FIG. 11A-FIG. 11D demonstrates differential cell viability and/or sensitivity of the cell lines tested.
- cancer cells are sensitized by pre-exposure to a selective EGFR inhibitor, such as Erlotinib, to relatively non-selective kinase inhibitors such as AST-1306, CEDC-101, Buparlisib, Ponatinib, and Regorafenib.
- a selective EGFR inhibitor such as Erlotinib
- relatively non-selective kinase inhibitors such as AST-1306, CEDC-101, Buparlisib, Ponatinib, and Regorafenib.
- the combination with a selective EGFR inhibitor enables treatment using relatively non-selective kinase inhibitors at a lower dose to achieve approximately the same or higher tumor-killing effects and lower side effects when compared with monotherapy with the relatively non-selective kinase inhibitors.
- Example 4 Combination effects of Erlotinib and Buparlisib with sequential and/or concurrent treatment in neuroblastoma cells in vitro
- SK-N-SH and IMR-32 neuroblastoma cell lines
- viability of the SK-N-SH cell line was measured after (1) 3 days pretreatment of Erlotinib (“preErl-3d-Buparlisib-3d”); (2) 3 days pretreatment of Erlotinib followed by 3 days treatment of Buparlisib (“preErl-3d+Buparlisib-3d”); (3) 6 days treatment of Buparlisib (“Buparlisib-6d’); (4) 6 days co-treatment of Erlotinib and Buparlisib (“Buparlisib+Erl-6d”); (5) 3 days pretreatment of Erlotinib (5mM) followed by 3 days treatment of Buparlisib (“preErl-3d- 5uM+Buparbsib-3d”); or (6) 6 days treatment of Erlotinib
- the concentrations of the Buparlisib were 0, 0.31, 0.62, 1.25, 2.5, 5, or 10mM. See FIG. 16A.
- viability of the IMR-32 cell line after (1) 3 days pretreatment of Erlotinib (“preErl-3d-Buparlisib-3d”); (2) 3 days pretreatment of Erlotinib (IOmM) followed by 3 days treatment of Buparbsib (“preErl-3d+Buparbsib-3d”); (3) 6 days treatment of Buparbsib (“Buparbsib-6d’); (4) 6 days co-treatment of Erlotinib and Buparbsib (“Buparlisib+Erl-6d”); or (5) 3 days pretreatment of Erlotinib (5mM) followed by 3 days treatment of Buparbsib (“preErl-3d- 5uM+Buparbsib-3d”).
- the concentrations of the Buparbsib were 0, 0.31, 0.62, 1.25, 2.5, 5, or 10mM. See FIG. 17A.
- Example 5 Combination effects of Erlotinib and CUDC-101 with sequential and/or concurrent treatment in neuroblastoma cells in vitro
- SK-N-SH and IMR-32 Two neuroblastoma cell lines (SK-N-SH and IMR-32) were selected.
- viability of the SK-N-SH cell line was measured after (1) 3 days pretreatment of Erlotinib (“preErl-3d-CUDC-l0l-3d”); (2) 3 days pretreatment of Erlotinib (10mM) followed by 3 days treatment of CUDC-101 (“preErl-3d+CUDC-l0l-3d”); (3) 6 days treatment of CUDC-101 (“CUDC-l0l-6d’); (4) 6 days co-treatment of Erlotinib and CUDC-101 (“CUDC-l0l+Erl-6d”); (5) 3 days pretreatment of Erlotinib (5mM) followed by 3 days treatment of CUDC-101 (“preErl-3d- 5uM+ CUDC-l0l3d”); or (6) 6 days treatment of Erlotinib (5
- CUDC-101 showed 100% killing with 0.3mM alone in the IMR-32 cells as shown in FIG. 17B. However, a relatively low dosage about 0.31 to about 1.25mM of CUDC-101 either when pretreated with Erlotinib for 3 days or given concurrent treatment with Erlotinib was observed with a potent killing of almost all SK-N-SH cells (FIG. 16B). This indicates an effective treatment of CUDC-101 with low dosage in combination with Erlotinib either sequentially or concurrently.
