  • the latency of HIV is reversed without activation of T cells.
  • the method further comprises administering an additional latency reversal agent, a killer agent, CarT, immunotherapy, neutralizing antibodies, or other agents.
  • the additional latency reversal agent is a histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi), a bromodomain and extra terminal domain inhibitors (BETi), or a Protein Kinase C (PKC) agonist.

  • FIG.6 shows the effect of Compound 18m compared with other IAP antagonists in their potency and efficacy in patient derived AML samples.
  • AML-IAP inhibitors available as either tools or potential drugs to treat cancer and other medical conditions. Genetic silencing of ML-IAP shows efficacy in various tumors as well as xenograft studies. By advancing the development of IAP antagonists, the survival of cancer patients including AML patients will be increased, giving new hope to the severely ill. This will lead to a major advancement in the treatment of cancers, in particular AML cancers.
  • AML is a diverse collection of hematological cancers characterized by the bone marrow’s excessive production of immature myeloid blood cells. This acute proliferation of abnormal progenitors results in impairment of normal blood and bone marrow functions.
  • Leukemia is the fourth most common cancer among 17-34 year old age group, but AML is more fatal in older patients. AML is considered to be a “late effect” disease, and exposure to ionizing radiation and/or chemical agents has been implicated in the development of leukemias and other blood cancers. Leukemia is curable in approximately 30% of patients under age 60, but in older patients the cure rate is only about 10%. In fact, elderly patients unable to tolerate aggressive chemotherapies only survive an average of ⁇ 7 months.
  • Apoptosis a form of programmed cell death, is often dysregulated in malignant cells, and the evasion of apoptosis is a hallmark of cancer. As cancer cells divide and proliferate, normal control of cell death is impaired and tumor formation occurs.
  • the IAP protein family is involved in blocking and attenuating programmed cell death pathways, predominantly through modulation of the caspase cascade (Fig.1). IAP proteins are often upregulated in cancers and are believed to underlie the resistance of many malignant cells to chemotherapeutics. Ablation or antagonism of IAP proteins is therefore an attractive therapeutic strategy for the treatment of cancer.
  • Proteins and genes are ascribed to the IAP family if they possess a baculovirus IAP protein repeat (BIR) domain. Of the eight IAP proteins, five also contain a RING E3 ligase domain, with cIAP1 and cIAP2 also containing a caspase recruitment domain (CARD).
  • the prototypical IAP family member is XIAP, which is a potent binder and inhibitor of caspase-3, one of the proteases that effects apoptosis.
  • Another highly relevant member of the IAP protein family is ML-IAP, also known as Livin or KIAP, which was first identified as a member of the IAP protein family due to its single BIR domain (49, 50).
  • the ML-IAP BIR domain is also responsible for apoptosis inhibition, and small molecule antagonists have significant potential for development as therapeutic agents.
  • the RING domain of ML-IAP has been shown to function as an E3 ligase, facilitating the ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of itself and, more importantly, the natural caspase antagonist that modulates apoptotic signaling - the second mitochondria-derived activator of caspases (SMAC).
  • SMAC second mitochondria-derived activator of caspases
  • both protein and mRNA levels of ML-IAP are low to undetectable in most adult tissues but are highly expressed in a number of cancers including hematologic malignancies.
  • AML cells have been shown to overexpress multiple antiapoptotic proteins, including Bcl2 and IAP protein family members, and it is believed this may underlie their resistance to therapies and eventual relapse.
  • IAP protein family members can be potential therapeutic targets for AML, and the expression levels of IAP proteins have been shown to be prognostic.
  • Provided herein is a new series of highly potent, bivalent IAP antagonists with single agent malignant cell-killing activity in culture. IAP antagonists can also be effective against AML.
  • IAP apoptosis pathway
  • BIR baculovirus IAP repeat
  • IAP protein family Five human members of the IAP protein family include: XIAP, cIAPl (also, BIRC 2 ), cIAP2 (also, BIRC 3 ), NAIP, and survivin.
  • XIAP inhibits apoptosis by binding to and inhibiting the activity of caspase-9, caspase-3 and caspase 7.
  • Alterations in IAP proteins are found in many types of human cancer and are associated with chemoresistance, disease progression and poor prognosis. When the IAP pathway is upregulated, the IAP proteins bind to and prevent initiator and effector caspases from cleaving downstream cellular proteins.
  • the proteolytic action of caspases is required to allow the cell death cascade to progress normally.
  • the compounds described herein are nonpeptidic second mitochondria- derived activator of caspase (SMAC) mimetics and induce apoptosis (e.g., in cancer cells).
  • the compounds described herein are IAP antagonists.
  • IAP proteins not only regulate caspases and apoptosis, but also modulate inflammatory signaling and immunity, mitogenic kinase signaling, proliferation and mitosis, as well as cell invasion and metastasis.
  • IAP Inhibitor of apoptosis proteins have emerged as regulators of innate immune signaling downstream of Pattern Recognition Receptors (PRRs) such as Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), Nucleotide-Binding Oligomerization Domain 1 (NOD1) and NOD2 receptors, and Retinoic Acid-Inducible Gene (RIG)-I Receptor.

  • the compounds described herein are also useful in the treatment of non-neoplastic diseases and/or inflammatory diseases and/or autoimmune diseases.
  • ART combinatorial antiretroviral therapy
  • HIV human immunodeficiency virus
  • antiretroviral therapy only targets actively replicating HIV and not the dormant, replication competent HIV that resides in certain types of cells. These dormant HIV viruses can reactivate and trigger new rounds of viral replication upon discontinuation of antiretroviral therapy.
  • a strategy for improving HIV treatment is to also target the dormant, replication competent HIV virus residing in latently infected cells, which are cells that are infected with HIV but are not actively producing HIV. These latently infected cells are not undergoing active virus replication and the viral genome has been integrated into the host DNA in such a manner that the virus DNA is indistinguishable from the host’s DNA. Latently infected cells are not recognized by the immune system and are not susceptible to antiretroviral therapy (ART). Thus, the dormant virus and latently infected cells can remain hidden and persist indefinitely.
  • One approach for targeting latently infected cells is to develop new therapeutic agents or drugs that can reverse latency in infected cells by inducing active HIV replication. Once the dormant HIV virus is “awakened”, the infected cells become susceptible to immune system clearance or the effects of additional treatments such as killer agents to eliminate infected cells. Concurrent treatment with antiretroviral drugs will prevent the spread of the reactivated virus and suppress new rounds of HIV infection.
  • the combination of therapeutic agents that can reverse the latency of HIV-infected cells and drugs to eradicate the awakened HIV virus is termed the “shock and kill” or “kick and kill” approach. IAP inhibition has been implicated in the reversal of HIV latency.
  • the IAP antagonists may be used alone or in combination with other therapeutic agents, such as those that are used to treat HIV.
  • other therapeutic agents that could be used in combination with IAP antagonists include therapeutic agents that activate HIV transcription in latently infected cells, therapeutic agents that inhibit active HIV replication, or any combination thereof.
  • the additional therapeutic agents that inhibit active HIV replication include antiretroviral therapy drugs.
  • the pharmaceutical compositions are described comprising IAP antagonists, alone or in combination with one or more additional therapeutics agents that are useful for the treatment of HIV in a mammal.
  • the mammal is a human.
