Definitions

  • the present invention relates to S1 P receptor modulators, preferably mocravimod, for use in treating patients suffering from acute myelogenous leukemia and who have undergone allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
  • AML Acute myeloid leukemia
  • AML Acute myeloid leukemia
  • AML Acute myeloid leukemia
  • AML is an aggressive, fast-growing, disease in which too many myeloblasts (immature white blood cells that are not lymphoblasts) are found in the bone marrow and blood.
  • myeloblasts Immature white blood cells that are not lymphoblasts
  • AML acute myeloblastic leukemia
  • AML acute myelogenous leukemia
  • AML acute nonlymphocytic leukemia
  • ANLL ANLL
  • AML results when bone marrow begins making blasts instead of mature white blood cells. The immature blasts are unable to fight infections.
  • AML is the most common acute leukemia, and it progresses rapidly. Left untreated, AML may lead to death within weeks or months.
  • AML Advanced leukemia
  • chemotherapy including targeted chemotherapies, radiation therapy, and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
  • the side effects of each of these treatments are well documented.
  • a newly diagnosed AML patient will be treated with an induction chemotherapy regimen to attempt to put the cancer in remission.
  • Remission is most often a temporary measure as most AML patients in remission eventually relapse.
  • Post-remission therapies include consolidation chemotherapy, allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, or autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
  • HSCT hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
  • major complications of HSCT include graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and other life-threatening complications.
  • GVHD graft-versus-host disease
  • immunosuppressive prophylaxis 30 to 60% of patients will develop some level of acute GVHD (Abo-Zena and Horwitz, Curr Opin Pharmacol. 2002 Aug;2(4):452-7; Jagasia et al., Blood 2012 Jan 5;119(1 ):296-307; Ruggeri et al., J Hematol Oncol. 2016 Sep 17;9(1 ):89).
  • Immunosuppressive GVHD prophylaxis is based for example on Ciclosporin A (CsA) which is a Calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) and Methotrexate (MTX) as a well established immunosuppressive regimen.
  • CsA Ciclosporin A
  • CNI Calcineurin inhibitor
  • MTX Methotrexate
  • Criteria for decision making to proceed to allo-HSCT in patients in first Complete Remission (CR) include risk group classification at diagnosis based on prognostic factors, and donor availability, at the time of induction. Some criteria are added at the time of consolidation, such as the quality of remission and persistence of Measurable Residual Disease (MRD), co-morbidities (HCT-CI as index of comorbidity) and recipient-donor profile (Gratmple score).
  • EPN European Leukemia Network
  • the ELN has issued guidance for allo-HSCT eligibility in patients with intermed iate/adverse risk and an additional stratification to assess post remission therapies: Low, Intermediate, High risk of relapse (Dohner et al., Blood 2017 Jan 26;129(4):424-447).
  • HSCT is indicated for patients in first CR with adverse cytogenetic/ molecular characteristics and/ or high MRD, provided HCT-CI is good enough and provided a donor is available in a timely manner.
  • Chronic GVHD While acute GVHD is an inflammatory disease, chronic GVHD resembles an autoimmune syndrome and typically develops 4 to 6 months posttransplant due to antigen-specific donor immune cells that cause autoimmune clinical manifestations.
  • Chronic GVHD can occur independently from acute GVHD as the classic form or as an overlap syndrome with the presence of acute features.
  • the pathology of acute GVHD is characterized by T-cell infiltration causing tissue inflammation and damage and is a risk factor for the later development of chronic GVHD, which is a fibrotic and sclerotic disease. It remains, however, unknown if acute and chronic GVHD are directly connected, and if so, how they are mechanistically linked.
  • Sphingosine-1 -phosphate is a metabolite of sphingolipid, a component of biomembrane.
  • S1 P acts as a ligand for a family of five G-protein-coupled receptors, named S1 P receptor types 1 to 5 (S1 PR1 -5).
  • FTY720 a multi-S1 PR inhibitor of S1 PR1 , 3-5
  • HSCT allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
  • Calcineurin inhibitors such as CsA and tacrolimus (TAC) suppress donor T-cell activation and remain the most commonly used immunosuppressants for acute GVHD prophylaxis.
  • W02020/022507 discloses the results of a clinical study for treating patients with hematological malignancies, where said patients undergo HSCT and are treated with KRP203 daily for a maximum duration of 110 days, together with standard of care to prevent acute GVHD with immunosuppressants, such as CsA and MTX, or MTX and TAC.
  • the invention described here meets this need, as the described methods provide a synergistic therapeutic effect, preventing acute and chronic GVHD effects while further improving GVL effect and risk of relapse in high-risk AML patients.

  • Example 2 Clinical Study for treating AML patients with high risk of relapse
  • HSCT allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
  • Mocravimod is a sphingosine 1 -phosphate receptor modulator (S1 P) developed by the applicant as an adjunctive therapy to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).
  • S1 P is a class of products associated with effect on the immune system. Some products are in development or are approved already as immunotherapy for the treatment of auto-immune diseases.
  • Fingolimod (Gilenya; FTY720) is approved for the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS).
  • Mocravimod mechanism of action is similar to fingolimod. Both are prodrugs and their active phosphorylated metabolites block lymphocytes egress from lymph nodes thereby reducing the number of circulating lymphocytes.
  • mocravimod profile is attractive for being developed in conjunction with allo-HSCT and standard of care (SoC) to improve disease progression rate, overall survival and Quality of Life in patients with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia.
  • Treatment with mocravimod starting 11 days prior to and lasting up to 1 year post HSCT) will lead to sequestration of lymphocytes into secondary lymphoid organs.
  • the Treatment of the study is to be administered for the whole treatment phase (1 year) starting in the initial pre- transplantation period (11 days before HSCT) and in conjunction with a GVHD prophylaxis regimen based on CsA and MTX in the mocravimod arm, and according to the clinical site institutional practice in the control arm.
  • Allo-HSCT is a key component of the current standard of care in AML management and is indicated for induction failure (refractory), after Relapse, and for Consolidation of Complete Remission.
  • Allo-HSCT reduces the risk of relapse, but with a higher risk of treatment-related mortality.
  • allo-HSCT is indicated if the risk of relapse is > 35% (Dohner et al., Blood 2017 Jan 26;129(4):424-447) and if the patient’s age, comorbidities and frailty makes him fit for the procedure.
  • Allo-HSCT in High-risk AML is currently the only potential curative option. Although benefiting from GvL effect, this procedure is currently associated with a high risk of non-relapse morbidity and mortality due to GVHD.
  • the risk of GVHD is currently related to the intensity of the GvL effect and is mitigated by immunosuppressant prophylaxis, which in turn decreases the GvL effect.
  • Investigational treatment competing to HSCT in AML such as molecularly targeted drugs, monoclonal antibodies and immunoconjugates, Checkpoint Inhibitors, T-cells engagers and CAR-T cells may lead to durable remissions and thus may compete with HSCT through extending survival without the prospect of a cure.
  • Mocravimod’s potential to decrease GvH effect while preserving GvL is promising as a way to keep the prospect of a cure while decreasing transplant-related mortality and morbidity.
  • GVHD Graft vs Host Disease
  • GvL Graft vs Leukemia effect
  • GvHD may happen to be acute or chronic (aGvHD, cGvHD).
  • GvHD is common after alloHSCT with a high prevalence: aGvHD 30-70%, cGvHD 20- 50% (Magenau et al., Br J Haematol. 2016 Apr;173(2):190-205).
  • GvHD is a leading cause of post-transplant mortality and morbidity and a leading cause of post-transplant Quality of Life impairment.
  • GvHD is still an issue.
  • T-cell suppression via immunosuppressive prophylaxis by CNI and MTX, or first line therapy via systemic corticosteroids are associated with opportunistic infection, organ toxicity and risk of minimizing GvL effect.
  • manipulation of specific immune modulators can decrease effector T cells involved in GvHD, and GvL, while increasing regulatory T cells and downregulating inflammatory pathways.
  • Extra-Corporeal Photopheresis has been proposed as well in high risk/ Refractory aGvHD, possibly in combination with Mesenchymal Stem cells (MSC).
  • MSC Mesenchymal Stem cells
  • Fecal microbiota Transplant is investigative in aGvHD.
  • cGvHD management includes systemic corticosteroids with extended taper in first line, and ECP, rituximab or ibrutinib in second line
  • ST2 IL-1 R
  • REG3alpha intestinal injury biomarker
  • Post-transplant relapse in AML is biologically and clinically heterogenous. Some factors may impact the incidence of post-transplant relapse in AML.
  • GvHD prophylaxis intensive regimen based on Anti-Thymocyte Globulins (ATG) or ant-T cell antibodies, T cells depleted grafts are associated with high risk of relapse,
  • HSCT All patients beyond first relapse (CR2) are in need for HSCT and have a very high risk for relapse.
  • Clinical outcomes of HSCT vary depending on the depth of remission, and comorbidities, such as a fungal infection or organ dysfunction during induction.
  • HSCT outcome in CR2 AML is limited by the substantial number of patients who acquire comorbidities and cumulative chemotherapy toxicity compared to patients with HSCT in CR1.
  • Stratification CR2 vs CR1 is needed for interpretation of the mocravimod trial outcome, since HSCT basic performance may vary depending on CR status.
  • Post-transplant clonal profile often happens to be different from the clonal profile at diagnosis.
  • NGS tailored molecular monitoring
  • Multiparameter Flow Cytometry Multiparameter Flow Cytometry
  • routine Chimerism assessment to evaluate the MRD status in AML.
  • Small molecules such as FLT3-inhibitors, Hypo Methylating agents, or Prophylactic Donor Lymphocyte Infusions are maintenance therapies.
  • Post- transplant survival is mostly related to AML relapse after HSCT, but Non-Relapse mortality is significant.
  • Various strategies have been investigated to lower relapse and therefore improve OS.
  • dose intensity may depend on genomics.
  • Immune Checkpoint blockade CLA4, PD1 , PDL1 , etc..
  • targeted therapies TKIs
  • HMA maintenance hypomethylating agents
  • vaccines are investigational and may be associated with poor tolerability.
  • GRFS GVHD-free/relapse-free survival
  • events include grade 3-4 acute GVHD, systemic therapy-requiring chronic GVHD, relapse, or death in the first post- HSCT year.
  • rGRFS Refractory GRFS
  • rGRFS is calculated similarly to conventional GRFS treating grade III to IV acute GVHD, chronic GVHD requiring systemic treatment, and disease relapse/progression as events, except that GVHD that resolve and do not require systemic treatment at the last evaluation is excluded as an event in rGRFS.
  • rGRFS is more accurate than GRFS for Mocravimod assessment: death, relapse or persistent severe GVHD.
  • KRP203 is an immunomodulator that selectively targets sphingosine 1 - phosphate (S1 P) receptors via its phosphorylated active metabolite.
  • KRP203- phosphate is a potent agonist on human S1 P1 and S1 P4 and a potent but partial agonist on hS1 P3 and S1 P5. The therapeutic effects are believed to be due to the prevention of effector lymphocyte recirculation from lymphatic tissue to susceptible target organs such as the gut, skin or CNS.
  • KRP203-phosphate induces a long-lasting and complete internalization of the S1 P1 , which renders these cells unresponsive to S1 P, depriving them of an obligatory signal to egress from lymphoid organs.
  • KRP203 does not inhibit allogeneic-stimulated T cell proliferation in mixed lymphocyte reactions (MLR), exhibit hematological cytotoxicity nor induces apoptosis of CD4+ T cells at therapeutic concentrations in vitro.
  • KRP203 reduces lymphocyte counts in peripheral blood by more than 80%.
  • KRP203 did not show relevant potential in inhibiting the activity of human cytochrome P450 isoenzymes.
  • KRP203 and KRP203-phosphate did not show significant induction of CYP3A4 via the human PXR receptor up to concentrations of 6.15 pM and 50 pM, respectively.
  • KRP230 formed low amounts of covalent drug-protein adducts in human hepatocytes in vitro. Due to the low levels detected (68pmol/106 cells at 3 hours) in-vitro adduct formation is unlikely to be associated with clinical relevant findings at low dose levels (e.g. below 10 mg).
  • KRP203-phosphate/KRP203 ratios (based on AUC0-24h) of 1.4-6.6 and 10.9-19.1 were observed in dog and rat, respectively.
  • KRP203 was well tolerated up to high dose levels, producing lethality only at oral doses of 1000 mg/kg in rats or intravenous doses above 50 mg/kg in rats or mice. No mortality was seen following single oral dosing in dogs up to 2000 mg/kg.
  • mice Repeat-dose toxicity studies in mice (2 weeks) revealed mortality in this species at doses > 45 mg/kg/day, whilst in rats and dogs (up to 26 and 52-week, respectively) no mortality was seen up to daily doses of 50 mg/kg and 15 mg/kg, respectively.
  • effects related to lymphocyte depletion and characteristic changes in lymphoid organs were noted in all species at all dose levels tested in repeat dose toxicity studies. Besides these effects, the main target organs of toxicity were the lungs (mice, rats and dogs), the liver (mice and rats) and kidneys (mice).
  • the lungs were shown to be a consistent target organ in all animal species tested. At the end of the 13, 26 and 52-week rat and/or dog studies, no histopathological changes were observed at systemic exposures that were similar to those at which the lung effects occurred in the 4-week toxicity studies. Transitory activation of phagocytic cells and increased secretion of soluble markers by these cells is considered a main contributing factor to smooth muscle hypertrophy/hyperplasia.
  • hepatic effects were mild and did only occur at high dose levels in some studies in combination with general clinical signs (e.g., body weight and food consumption), indicating that the MTD may have been exceeded.
  • KRP203 does not show. in silico structural alerts for human liver side effects and genomic profiling of the liver in a 2-week exploratory toxicity study in rats did not indicate any hepatotoxicity-related changes.
  • the kidney was a target organ of toxicity in mice only and only in a 2-week study at doses > 45 mg/kg.
  • Minimal to severe lesions were noted in both sexes and consisted of tubular vacuolation, dilatation, degeneration, regeneration, hyaline droplets, hyaline casts, increase of mitotic figures, glomerular degeneration with fibrinoid deposits and/or glomerulopathy.
  • KRP203 causes marked eye irritation but is not irritating to rabbit skin and does not have a contact sensitizing potential.
