Definitions
- Methionine adenosyltransferase 2A is an enzyme that utilizes methionine (Met) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to generate s-adenosyl methionine (SAM).
- SAM is a primary methyl donor in cells used to methylate several substrates including DNA, RNA, and proteins.
- One methylase that utilizes SAM as a methyl donor is protein arginine N- methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5).
- MTA 5’methylthioadenosine
- MTA is part of the methionine salvage pathway
- MTAP methylthioadenosine phosphorylase
- MTAP is located at a locus on chromosome 9 that is often deleted in the cells of patients with cancers from several tissues of origin including central nervous system, pancreas, esophageal, bladder and lung (cBioPortal database). Loss of MTAP results in the accumulation of MTA making MTAP-deleted cells more dependent on SAM production, and thus MAT2A activity, compared to cells that express MTAP.
- MAT2A knockdown resulted in the loss of viability in a larger percentage of MTAP-deleted cells compare to MTAP WT cells (see McDonald et. al.2017 Cell 170, 577-592). Furthermore, inducible knockdown of MAT2A protein decreased tumor growth in vivo (see Marjon et. al., 2016 Cell Reports 15(3), 574- 587). These results indicate that MAT2A inhibitors may provide a novel therapy for cancer patients including those with MTAP-deleted tumors.
- DNA-topoisomerases are enzymes that are present in the nuclei of cells where they catalyze the breaking and rejoining of DNA strands, which control the topological state of DNA. Recent studies also suggest that topoisomerases are also involved in regulating template supercoiling during RNA transcription. There are two major classes of mammalian topoisomerase. DNA-topoisomerase-I catalyzes changes in the topological state of duplex DNA by performing transient single-strand breakage-union cycles. In contrast, mammalian topoisomerase II alters the topology of DNA by causing a transient enzyme bridged double- strand break, followed by strand passing and resealing.
- Indisulam is an aryl sulfonamide drug with selective anti-cancer activity. Its mechanism of action and the basis for its selectivity are unknown. Many cancer cell lines derived from hematopoietic and lymphoid lineages are sensitive to indisulam and their sensitivity correlates with DCAF15 expression levels. Two other clinically tested sulfonamides, tasisulam and CQS, share the same mechanism of action as indisulam.
- SPLAMs splicing inhibitor sulfonamides
- Kinesins are molecular motors that play important roles in cell division and intracellular vesicle and organelle transport. Mitotic kinesin plays roles in several aspects of spindle assembly, chromosome segregation, centrosome separation and dynamics (reviewed in O. Rath and F. Kozielski, Nature Review Cancer, 12:527-39, 2012). Human kinesins are categorized into 14 subfamilies based on sequence homology within the “motor domain.” This domain’s ATPase activity drives unidirectional movement along microtubules (MTs). The non-motor domain of these proteins is responsible for cargo attachment.
- MTs microtubules
- a “cargo” can include any one of a variety of different membranous organelles, signal transduction scaffolding systems, and chromosomes.
- Kinesins use the energy of ATP hydrolysis to move cargo along polarized microtubules. Thus, kinesins are often called “plus-end” or “minus- end” directed motors.
- KIF18A gene belongs to Kinesin-8 subfamily and is a plus-end-directed motor. KIF18A is believed to influence dynamics at the plus end of kinetochore microtubules to control correct chromosome positioning and spindle tension.
- KIF18A is overexpressed in various types of cancers, including but not limited to colon, breast, lung, pancreas, prostate, bladder, head, neck, cervix, and ovarian cancers. Further, genetic deletion or knockdown, or inhibition of KIF18A effects mitotic spindle apparatus in cancer cell lines.
- KIF18A has been found to induce mitotic cell arrest, a known vulnerability that can promote cell death in mitosis via apoptosis, mitotic catastrophe, or multipolarity driven lethality or death after mitotic slippage in interphase. Accordingly, there has been a strong interest in finding inhibitors of KIF18A proteins. [0009] Despite many recent advances in cancer therapies, there remains a need for more effective and/or enhanced treatment for those individuals suffering the effects of cancer.

Materials and Methods [0397] A 10-day proliferation assay was performed in a panel of 5 MTAP-deficient and 2 wild type non-small cell lung and bladder cancer cell lines. Optimal cell seeding for all cell lines was determined by assessing the growth over a range of seeding densities in a 384-well format to identify conditions that permitted proliferation for 10 days.
- Cells were then plated at the optimal seeding density and treated with 20-point, two-fold dilution series of each of four structurally different SPLAMs in combination with a 1000nM fixed concentration of Compound A. Single agent titrations for Compound A and each SPLAM were included for comparison. Concentrations tested for each SPLAM alone or in combination ranged from 0.04 nM to 20,000 nM.
- a plate of cells was harvested at the time of compound addition to quantify the number of cells at the start of the combination (T0). For cell quantification, the harvested cells were lysed with Promega CellTiter-Glo (CTG) reagent according to the manufacturer’s protocol and the chemiluminescent signal was detected as described in Example 1 above.

BACKGROUND [0002] Cancer is a leading cause of death throughout the world. A limitation of prevailing therapeutic approaches, e.g., chemotherapy and immunotherapy, is that their cytotoxic effects are not restricted to cancer cells and adverse side effects can occur within normal tissues. [0003] Methionine adenosyltransferase 2A (MAT2A) is an enzyme that utilizes methionine (Met) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to generate s-adenosyl methionine (SAM). SAM is a primary methyl donor in cells used to methylate several substrates including DNA, RNA, and proteins. One methylase that utilizes SAM as a methyl donor is protein arginine N- methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5). While SAM is required for PRMT5 activity, PRMT5 is competitively inhibited by 5’methylthioadenosine (MTA). Since MTA is part of the methionine salvage pathway, cellular MTA levels stay low in a process initiated by methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP). [0004] MTAP is located at a locus on chromosome 9 that is often deleted in the cells of patients with cancers from several tissues of origin including central nervous system, pancreas, esophageal, bladder and lung (cBioPortal database). Loss of MTAP results in the accumulation of MTA making MTAP-deleted cells more dependent on SAM production, and thus MAT2A activity, compared to cells that express MTAP. In an shRNA cell-line screen across approximately 400 cancer cell lines, MAT2A knockdown resulted in the loss of viability in a larger percentage of MTAP-deleted cells compare to MTAP WT cells (see McDonald et. al.2017 Cell 170, 577-592). Furthermore, inducible knockdown of MAT2A protein decreased tumor growth in vivo (see Marjon et. al., 2016 Cell Reports 15(3), 574- 587). These results indicate that MAT2A inhibitors may provide a novel therapy for cancer patients including those with MTAP-deleted tumors.
[0005] DNA-topoisomerases are enzymes that are present in the nuclei of cells where they catalyze the breaking and rejoining of DNA strands, which control the topological state of DNA. Recent studies also suggest that topoisomerases are also involved in regulating template supercoiling during RNA transcription. There are two major classes of mammalian topoisomerase. DNA-topoisomerase-I catalyzes changes in the topological state of duplex DNA by performing transient single-strand breakage-union cycles. In contrast, mammalian topoisomerase II alters the topology of DNA by causing a transient enzyme bridged double- strand break, followed by strand passing and resealing. The antitumor activity associated with agents that are topoisomerase poisons is associated with their ability to stabilize the enzyme- DNA cleavable complex. This drug-induced stabilization of the enzyme-DNA cleavable complex effectively converts the enzyme into a cellular poison. [0006] Indisulam is an aryl sulfonamide drug with selective anti-cancer activity. Its mechanism of action and the basis for its selectivity are unknown. Many cancer cell lines derived from hematopoietic and lymphoid lineages are sensitive to indisulam and their sensitivity correlates with DCAF15 expression levels. Two other clinically tested sulfonamides, tasisulam and CQS, share the same mechanism of action as indisulam. This class of drugs is generally referred to as SPLAMs (splicing inhibitor sulfonamides). [0007] Kinesins are molecular motors that play important roles in cell division and intracellular vesicle and organelle transport. Mitotic kinesin plays roles in several aspects of spindle assembly, chromosome segregation, centrosome separation and dynamics (reviewed in O. Rath and F. Kozielski, Nature Review Cancer, 12:527-39, 2012). Human kinesins are categorized into 14 subfamilies based on sequence homology within the “motor domain.” This domain’s ATPase activity drives unidirectional movement along microtubules (MTs). The non-motor domain of these proteins is responsible for cargo attachment. A “cargo” can include any one of a variety of different membranous organelles, signal transduction scaffolding systems, and chromosomes. Kinesins use the energy of ATP hydrolysis to move cargo along polarized microtubules. Thus, kinesins are often called “plus-end” or “minus- end” directed motors. [0008] KIF18A gene belongs to Kinesin-8 subfamily and is a plus-end-directed motor. KIF18A is believed to influence dynamics at the plus end of kinetochore microtubules to control correct chromosome positioning and spindle tension. Depletion of human KIF18A leads to longer spindles, increased chromosome oscillation at metaphase, and activation of
the mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint in HeLa cervical cancer cells (M.I. Mayr, et al., Current Biology 17, 488-98, 2007). KIF18A is overexpressed in various types of cancers, including but not limited to colon, breast, lung, pancreas, prostate, bladder, head, neck, cervix, and ovarian cancers. Further, genetic deletion or knockdown, or inhibition of KIF18A effects mitotic spindle apparatus in cancer cell lines. Particularly, inhibition of KIF18A has been found to induce mitotic cell arrest, a known vulnerability that can promote cell death in mitosis via apoptosis, mitotic catastrophe, or multipolarity driven lethality or death after mitotic slippage in interphase. Accordingly, there has been a strong interest in finding inhibitors of KIF18A proteins. [0009] Despite many recent advances in cancer therapies, there remains a need for more effective and/or enhanced treatment for those individuals suffering the effects of cancer.

Definitions [0054] Listed below are definitions of various terms used herein. These definitions apply to the terms as they are used throughout this specification and claims, unless otherwise limited in specific instances, either individually or as part of a larger group. [0055] Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein generally have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art. Generally, the nomenclature used herein and the laboratory procedures in cell culture, molecular genetics, organic chemistry, and peptide chemistry are those well-known and commonly employed in the art. [0056] As used herein, the articles “a” and “an” refer to one or to more than one (i.e., to at least one) of the grammatical object of the article. By way of example, “an element” means one element or more than one element. Furthermore, use of the term “including” as well as other forms, such as “include,” “includes,” and “included,” is not limiting.
[0057] As used herein, the term “about” will be understood by persons of ordinary skill in the art and will vary to some extent on the context in which it is used. As used herein when referring to a measurable value such as an amount, a temporal duration, and the like, the term “about” is meant to encompass variations of ±20% or ±10%, including ±5%, ±1%, and ±0.1% from the specified value, as such variations are appropriate to perform the disclosed methods. [0058] As used in the specification and in the claims, the term “comprising” may include the embodiments “consisting of” and “consisting essentially of.” The terms “comprise(s),” “include(s),” “having,” “has,” “may,” “contain(s),” and variants thereof, as used herein, are intended to be open-ended transitional phrases, terms, or words that require the presence of the named ingredients/steps and permit the presence of other ingredients/steps. [0059] It should be noted that ratios, concentrations, amounts, and other numerical data may be expressed herein in a range format. It is to be understood that such a range format is used for convenience and brevity, and thus, should be interpreted in a flexible manner to include not only the numerical values explicitly recited as the limits of the range, but also to include all the individual numerical values or sub-ranges encompassed within that range as if each numerical value and sub-range is explicitly recited. In addition, the phrase “about ‘x’ to ‘y’ includes “about ‘x’ to about ‘y’”. [0060] The terms “combination,” “therapeutic combination,” “pharmaceutical combination,” or “combination product” as used herein refer to either a fixed combination in one dosage unit form, or non-fixed combination in separate dosage forms, or a kit of parts for the combined administration where two or more therapeutic agents may be administered independently, at the same time or separately within time intervals. [0061] The term “combination therapy” refers to the administration of two or more therapeutic agents to treat a therapeutic condition or disorder described in the present disclosure. Such administration encompasses co-administration of these therapeutic agents in a substantially simultaneous manner, such as in a single formulation having a fixed ratio of active ingredients or in separate formulations (e.g., capsules and/or intravenous formulations) for each active ingredient. In addition, such administration also encompasses use of each type of therapeutic agent in a sequential or separate manner, either at approximately the same time or at different times. Regardless of whether the active ingredients are administered as a single formulation or in separate formulations, the drugs are administered to the same patient as part
of the same course of therapy. In any case, the treatment regimen will provide beneficial, e.g., synergistic, effects in treating the conditions or disorders described herein. [0062] As used herein, the term “treating” or “treatment” refers to inhibiting a disease; for example, inhibiting a disease, condition, or disorder in an individual who is experiencing or displaying the pathology or symptomology of the disease, condition, or disorder (i.e., arresting further development of the pathology and/or symptomology) or ameliorating the disease; for example, ameliorating a disease, condition, or disorder in an individual who is experiencing or displaying the pathology or symptomology of the disease, condition, or disorder (i.e., reversing the pathology and/or symptomology) such as decreasing the severity of the disease. [0063] As used herein, the term “prevent” or “prevention” means no disorder or disease development if none had occurred, or no further disorder or disease development if there had already been development of the disorder or disease. Also considered is the ability of the combination therapy provided herein to prevent some or all of the symptoms associated with the disorder or disease. [0064] As used herein, the term “patient,” “individual,” or “subject” refers to a human or a non-human mammal. Non-human mammals include, for example, livestock and pets, such as ovine, bovine, porcine, canine, feline and marine mammals. Preferably, the patient, subject, or individual is human. [0065] As used herein, the terms “effective amount,” “pharmaceutically effective amount,” and “therapeutically effective amount” refer to a nontoxic but sufficient amount of an agent to provide the desired biological result. That result may be reduction or alleviation of the signs, symptoms, or causes of a disease, or any other desired alteration of a biological system. An appropriate therapeutic amount in any individual case may be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art using routine experimentation. [0066] As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable” refers to a material, such as a carrier or diluent, which does not abrogate the biological activity or properties of the compound, and is relatively non-toxic, i.e., the material may be administered to an individual without causing undesirable biological effects or interacting in a deleterious manner with any of the components of the composition in which it is contained.
[0067] As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to derivatives of the disclosed compounds wherein a parent compound is modified by converting an existing acid or base moiety to its salt form. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, but are not limited to, mineral or organic acid salts of basic residues such as amines; alkali or organic salts of acidic residues such as carboxylic acids; and the like. The pharmaceutically acceptable salts described herein include the conventional non-toxic salts of the parent compound formed, for example, from non-toxic inorganic or organic acids. The pharmaceutically acceptable salts discussed herein can be synthesized from the parent compound which contains a basic or acidic moiety by conventional chemical methods. Generally, such salts can be prepared by reacting the free acid or base forms of these compounds with a stoichiometric amount of the appropriate base or acid in water or in an organic solvent, or in a mixture of the two; generally, nonaqueous media like ether, ethyl acetate, ethanol, isopropanol, or acetonitrile are used. The phrase “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” is not limited to a mono, or 1:1, salt. For example, “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” also includes bis-salts, such as a bis-hydrochloride salt. Lists of suitable salts are found in Remington’s Pharmaceutical Sciences, 17th ed., Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pa., 1985, p.1418 and Journal of Pharmaceutical Science, 66, 2 (1977), each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. [0068] As used herein, the term “composition” or “pharmaceutical composition” refers to a mixture of at least one compound with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The pharmaceutical composition facilitates administration of the composition to a patient or subject. Multiple techniques of administering a compound exist in the art including, but not limited to, intravenous, oral, aerosol, parenteral, ophthalmic, pulmonary, and topical administration. [0069] As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” means a pharmaceutically acceptable material, composition or carrier, such as a liquid or solid filler, stabilizer, dispersing agent, suspending agent, diluent, excipient, thickening agent, solvent or encapsulating material, involved in carrying or transporting a compound useful to the patient such that it may perform its intended function. Typically, such constructs are carried or transported from one organ, or portion of the body, to another organ, or portion of the body. Each carrier must be “acceptable” in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation, including the compound disclosed herein, and not injurious to the patient. Some examples of materials that may serve as pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include:
sugars, such as lactose, glucose and sucrose; starches, such as corn starch and potato starch; cellulose, and its derivatives, such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose and cellulose acetate; powdered tragacanth; malt; gelatin; talc; excipients, such as cocoa butter and suppository waxes; oils, such as peanut oil, cottonseed oil, safflower oil, sesame oil, olive oil, corn oil and soybean oil; glycols, such as propylene glycol; polyols, such as glycerin, sorbitol, mannitol and polyethylene glycol; esters, such as ethyl oleate and ethyl laurate; agar; buffering agents, such as magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide; surface active agents; alginic acid; pyrogen-free water; isotonic saline; Ringer’s solution; ethyl alcohol; phosphate buffer solutions; and other non-toxic compatible substances employed in pharmaceutical formulations. [0070] As used herein, “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” also includes any and all coatings, antibacterial and antifungal agents, and absorption delaying agents, and the like that are compatible with the activity of a compound disclosed herein, and are physiologically acceptable to the patient. Supplementary active compounds may also be incorporated into the compositions. Other additional ingredients that may be included in the pharmaceutical compositions are known in the art and described, for example, in Remington’s Pharmaceutical Sciences (Genaro, Ed., Mack Publishing Co., 1985, Easton, PA), which is incorporated herein by reference. [0071] The term “single formulation” as used herein refers to a single carrier or vehicle formulated to deliver therapeutically effective amounts of both therapeutic agents to a patient. The single vehicle is designed to deliver a therapeutically effective amount of each of the agents, along with any pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or excipients. In some embodiments, the vehicle is a tablet, capsule, pill, or a patch. In other embodiments, the vehicle is a solution or a suspension. [0072] As used herein “methionine adenosyltransferase II alpha inhibitor” or “MAT2A inhibitor” means an agent that modulates the activity of MAT2A or inhibits the production of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) by methionine adenosyltransferase 2A (MAT2A). [0073] The combination of agents described herein may display a synergistic effect. The term “synergistic effect” or “synergy” as used herein, refers to action of two agents such as, for example, a MAT2A inhibitor and a topoisomerase inhibitor, a splicing inhibitor sulfonamide (SPLAM), or a KIF18 inhibitor, producing an effect, for example, slowing the symptomatic progression of cancer or symptoms thereof, which is greater than the simple addition of the effects of each drug administered by themselves. A synergistic effect can be
calculated, for example, using suitable methods such as the Sigmoid-Emax equation (Holford, N. H. G. and Scheiner, L. B., Clin. Pharmacokinet.6: 429-453 (1981)), the equation of Loewe additivity (Loewe, S. and Muischnek, H., Arch. Exp. Pathol Pharmacol. 114: 313-326 (1926)) and the median-effect equation (Chou, T. C. and Talalay, P., Adv. Enzyme Regul.22: 27-55 (1984)). Each equation referred to above can be applied to experimental data to generate a corresponding graph to aid in assessing the effects of the drug combination. The corresponding graphs associated with the equations referred to above are the concentration-effect curve, isobologram curve and combination index curve, respectively. [0074] In an embodiment, provided herein is a combination therapy comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a MAT2A inhibitor; and a topoisomerase inhibitor, a splicing inhibitor sulfonamide (SPLAM), or a KIF18 inhibitor. A “therapeutically effective amount” of a combination of agents (i.e., a MAT2A inhibitor in combination with a topoisomerase inhibitor, a splicing inhibitor sulfonamide (SPLAM), or a KIF18 inhibitor) is an amount sufficient to provide an observable improvement over the baseline clinically observable signs and symptoms of the disorders treated with the combination. [0075] “Alkyl” means a linear saturated monovalent hydrocarbon radical of one to six carbon (i.e. C1-6 means one to six carbons) atoms or a branched saturated monovalent hydrocarbon radical of three to six carbon atoms (i.e. C3-6 means three to six carbons). Alkyl can include any number of carbons, such as C1-2, C1-3, C1-4, C1-5, C1-6, C2-3, C2-4, C2-5, C2-6, C3-4, C3-5, C3-6, C4-5, C4-6 and C5-6. Example of alkyl groups include methyl, ethyl, propyl, 2- propyl, butyl, pentyl, and the like. It will be recognized by a person skilled in the art that the term “alkyl” may include “alkylene” groups. [0076] “Amino” means a –NH2. [0077] “Cycloalkyl” means a monocyclic monovalent hydrocarbon radical of three to six carbon atoms (e.g., C3-6 cycloalkyl) which may be saturated or contains one double bond. Cycloalkyl can include any number of carbons, such as C3-6, C4-6, and C5-6. Partially unsaturated cycloalkyl groups have one or more double in the ring, but cycloalkyl groups are not aromatic. Saturated monocyclic cycloalkyl rings include, for example, cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, and cyclohexyl. [0078] “Halo” means fluoro, chloro, bromo, or iodo, preferably fluoro or chloro.
[0079] “Haloalkyl” means alkyl radical as defined above, which is substituted with one to five halogen atoms, such as fluorine or chlorine, including those substituted with different halogens, e.g., -CH2Cl, -CF3, -CHF2, -CH2CF3, -CF2CF3, -CF(CH3)2, and the like. When the alkyl is substituted with only fluoro, it can be referred to as fluoroalkyl. As for alkyl group, haloalkyl groups can have any suitable number of carbon atoms, such as C1-6.

The practice of the present disclosure will employ, unless otherwise indicated, conventional techniques of organic synthesis, cell biology, cell culture, and molecular biology, which are within the skill of the art. Example 1: In Vitro Synergistic Growth Inhibition with Equimolar Combinations of a MAT2A Inhibitor and a KIF18A Inhibitor Materials and Methods [0374] A 10-day proliferation assay was performed in a panel of 5 MTAP-deficient and 2 wild type non-small cell lung and bladder cancer cell lines. Optimal cell seeding for all cell lines was determined by assessing the growth over a range of seeding densities in a 384-well format to identify conditions that permitted proliferation for 10 days. Cells were then plated at the optimal seeding density and treated with 20-point, two-fold dilution series of Compound A, sovilnesib (“Compound B”), or an equimolar combination of Compound A and Compound B. Concentrations tested for Compound A and Compound B alone or in combination ranged from 0.038 nM to 20,000 nM. A plate of cells was harvested at the time of compound addition to quantify the number of cells at the start of the combination (T0). For cell quantification, the harvested cells were lysed with Promega CellTiter-Glo (CTG) reagent according to the manufacturer’s protocol and the chemiluminescent signal was detected on a Synergy Neo plate reader. CTG estimates cell number through detection of cellular ATP levels. Cells were incubated with the drug combinations at 37°C with 5% CO2 for 10 days. Cells were then lysed with CTG and the chemiluminescent signal was measured. Analysis [0375] CTG values obtained after the 10-day treatment were background subtracted and expressed as a percent of the T0 value. Data were plotted against compound concentration and fit with a four-parameter equation to generate dose response curves for each single agent
and the equimolar combination. Growth ICx (gICx) values ranging from gIC30 to gIC100 were interpolated from the fitted curves. Synergistic growth inhibition was assessed by determination of Combination Index (CI) values at these various points across the titration using the mutually non-exclusive equation [Chou, 1983; Chou, 1981] shown below where A equals the gIC value of Compound A, B equals the gICx value of Compound B, and A+B or B+A equals the gICx value of the equimolar combination. A Combination Index value less than 1.0 was considered synergistic.
Results [0376] Synergistic growth inhibition was observed with Compound A in combination with Compound B at multiple gICx points along the combination titration in 5/5 MTAP-deficicient cell lines (Tables 3A-3E). Combination synergy was also observed in 1/2 wild type cell lines (Tables 4A-4B). While considered synergistic, the Combination Index values in the wild type TCCSUP cell line were ^ 0.7. In comparison to the wild type cell lines, the MTAP-deficient cell lines exhibited greater sensitivity to the combination where Combination Index values were as low as 0.01. Tables 3A-3E: Synergistic Growth Inhibition with Equimolar Combinations of Compound A and Compound B Across Five MTAP-deficient Cell Lines [0377] Synergy was measured for equimolar combinations of Compound A and Compound B utilizing the mutually non-exclusive Combination Index equation across gICx values ranging from gIC30 – gIC100. Combination Index values are shown for: NCI-H838 (3A), SW900 (3B), RT112/84 (3C), UMUC5 (3D), and UMUC11 (3E). Table 3A: NCI-H838

Example 2: In Vitro Synergistic Growth Inhibition with a KIF18A Inhibitor in Combination with a Fixed Concentration of a MAT2A Inhibitor Materials and Methods [0379] A 10-day proliferation assay was performed in a panel of 5 MTAP-deficient and 2 wild type non-small cell lung and bladder cancer cell lines. Optimal cell seeding for all cell lines was determined by assessing the growth over a range of seeding densities in a 384-well format to identify conditions that permitted proliferation for 10 days. Cells were then plated at the optimal seeding density and treated with 20-point, two-fold dilution series of Compound B in combination with a 1000nM fixed concentration of Compound A. Single agent titrations for Compound A and Compound B were included for comparison. Concentrations tested for Compound A and Compound B alone or in combination ranged from 0.038 nM to 20,000 nM. A plate of cells was harvested at the time of compound addition to quantify the number of cells at the start of the combination (T0). For cell quantification, the harvested cells were lysed with Promega CellTiter-Glo (CTG) reagent according to the manufacturer’s protocol and the chemiluminescent signal was detected as described in Example 1 above. Cells were incubated with the drug combinations at 37°C with 5% CO2 for 10 days. Cells were then lysed with CTG and the chemiluminescent signal was measured. Analysis [0380] CTG values obtained after the 10-day treatment were background subtracted and expressed as a percent of the T0 value set at 100%. Data were plotted against compound concentration and fit with a four-parameter equation to generate single agent dose response curves. Percent inhibition was determined for each combination and single agent concentration compared to a DMSO control. In addition, the overall net growth or death of
the cells was calculated and reported as a growth death index (GDI) value on a scale of -100 to 100 with the midpoint (0) being the number of cells at the beginning of the combination (T0). [0381] Synergistic growth inhibition was assessed using the Bliss Independence model for each point of the Compound B titration in combination with 1000nM Compound A. The observed growth inhibition at each point was compared to the predicted inhibition based on the additive activity of each single agent. Predicted inhibition was calculated using (Ea+Eb) - (Ea*Eb) where E equals the effect (inhibition) of each single agent (a and b). A difference between the observed inhibition percentage and the predicted inhibition percentage greater than 10% was considered synergistic. A Bliss score was only calculated for combinations eliciting >20% growth inhibition (GDI value <80). Since Bliss is calculated based on growth inhibition, scores within cytotoxic dose ranges may not accurately reflect synergistic cytotoxicity. Results [0382] Synergistic growth inhibition was observed with Compound B in combination with 1000nM Compound A across numerous points of the titration as assessed by Bliss Independence in 5/5 MTAP-deficient cell lines (Tables 5A-5E). Due to the sharp dose response curves observed with single agent Compound B, the window available for observation of combination synergy within this assay design was narrow for some cell lines. For example, 5000 nM single agent Compound B is sufficient to maximally inhibit cell growth in the UMUC5 cell line (FIG.1A-3). Therefore, the dose range in which combination synergy can be observed in UMUC5 is below the 5000nM Compound B dose. Despite this limited window, combination synergy was observed at doses below that needed for maximal single agent inhibition in 5/5 MTAP-deficient cell lines. In these cell lines, synergistic growth inhibition was observed across a broad dose range of Compound B in combination with 1000nM Compound A. [0383] Enhanced growth inhibition for the combination was also observed in 1/2 wild type cell lines at a limited dose range between 39 – 156nM of Compound B (Tables 6A-6B). While synergy was calculated by Bliss Independence in this cell line, the potency shift in the dose response curve was not as large as that observed in the MTAP-deficient cell lines. In FIG.1A-1 to FIG.1A-5 and FIG.1B-1 to FIG.1B-2, growth inhibition is presented as percent of DMSO control for a dose titration of single agent Compound B. Dose response
curves were generated using a four-parameter fit for five MTAP-deficient cell lines (FIG.1A- 1 to FIG.1A-5) and two wild type cell lines (FIGs.1B-1 and 1B-2). Tables 5A-5E: Synergistic Growth Inhibition with Compound B in Combination with 1000nM Compound A Across Five MTAP-deficient Cell Lines [0384] Synergy was measured across the Compound B titration with 1000nM Compound A by Bliss Independence analysis. Bliss scores >10 are indicated by “*” and are considered synergistic. Bliss scores are valid for combinations exhibiting greater than 20% growth inhibition (GDI <80). Synergy as reported using Bliss may be underrepresented within cytotoxic dose ranges. Growth death index values are shown for the combination titration and each single agent Compound A (Cmpd A) and Compound B (Cmpd B) on a scale of -100 to 100 with the midpoint (0) being the number of cells at the beginning of the combination (T0). Bliss and GDI values are shown for five MTAP-deficient cell lines: NCI-H838 (5A), SW900 (5B), RT112/84 (5C), UMUC5 (5D), and UMUC11 (5E). Table 5A: NCI-H838

Example 3: Proliferation screen identifies combination benefit with MAT2A Inhibition and Indisulam Materials and Methods [0386] A 10-day proliferation screen was performed in 15 pancreatic, non-small cell lung, and bladder cancer cell lines: 10 MTAP null and 5 MTAP wild-type. Optimal cell seeding for all cell lines was determined by assessing the growth over a range of seeding densities in a 384-well format to identify conditions that permitted proliferation for 10 days. Cells were then plated at the optimal seeding density in the presence of 20-150 nM of Compound A or DMSO vehicle control. Cells were incubated at 37°C with 5% CO2 for 4 days to allow for target engagement of the pre-treatment compound. Maintaining the pre-treatment condition, cells were also treated with an 11-point, three-fold titration series of compounds from a chemically diverse library of 424 compounds. The combination compound concentrations ranged from 0.2 nM to 14,679 nM. A plate of cells was harvested at the time of combination compound addition to quantify the number of cells at the start of the combination (T0). For cell quantification, the harvested cells were lysed with CellTiter-Glo (CTG) (Promega) reagent according to the manufacturer’s protocol and the chemiluminescent signal was detected on a Synergy Neo plate reader (ThermoFisher, serial # 140715A). CTG estimates cell number through detection of cellular ATP levels. Cells were incubated with the drug combinations at 37°C with 5% CO2 for an additional 6 days for a total of a 10-day assay including the pre-treatment. Cells were then lysed with CTG and the chemiluminescent signal was measured. CTG values obtained after the 10-day treatment were background subtracted, expressed as a percent of the T0 value, and plotted against compound concentration. Data were fit with a four-parameter equation to generate concentration response curves. Growth IC50 values and maximal growth inhibition were compared between the DMSO and the
Compound A pre-treated cells for each combination titration. Combination hit calling was based on the observation of >2-fold shift in growth IC50 and/or greater than 20% decrease in growth inhibition. Results [0387] 424 compounds were tested in combination with Compound A in 10 MTAP null and 5 MTAP wild type cell lines.

Example 4: In Vitro Synergistic Growth Inhibition with Equimolar Combinations of a MAT2A Inhibitor and Four Structurally Different Splicing Inhibitor Sulfonamides Materials and Methods [0389] A 10-day proliferation assay was performed in a panel of 5 MTAP-deficient and 2 wild type non-small cell lung and bladder cancer cell lines. Optimal cell seeding for all cell lines was determined by assessing the growth over a range of seeding densities in a 384-well format to identify conditions that permitted proliferation for 10 days. Cells were then plated at the optimal seeding density and treated with 20-point, two-fold dilution series of Compound A, the splicing inhibitor sulfonamide (SPLAM), or an equimolar combination of Compound A and the SPLAM. Combinations tested included Compound A in combination with four structurally different SPLAMs. Concentrations tested for Compound A and each SPLAM alone or in combination ranged from 0.04 nM to 20,000 nM. A plate of cells was harvested at the time of compound addition to quantify the number of cells at the start of the combination (T0). For cell quantification, the harvested cells were lysed with Promega CellTiter-Glo (CTG) reagent according to the manufacturer’s protocol and the chemiluminescent signal was detected on a Synergy Neo plate reader. CTG estimates cell number through detection of cellular ATP levels. Cells were incubated with the drug combinations at 37°C with 5% CO2 for 10 days. Cells were then lysed with CTG and the chemiluminescent signal was measured. Analysis [0390] CTG values obtained after the 10-day treatment were background subtracted and expressed as a percent of the T0 value. Data were plotted against compound concentration and fit with a four-parameter equation to generate dose response curves for each single agent and the equimolar combination. Growth ICx (gICx) values ranging from gIC30 to gIC100 were interpolated from the fitted curves. Synergistic growth inhibition was assessed by determination of Combination Index (CI) values at these various points across the titration using the mutually non-exclusive equation [Chou, 1983; Chou, 1981] shown below where A equals the gICx value of Compound A, B equals the gICx value of the SPLAM, and A+B or B+A equals the gICx value of the equimolar combination. A Combination Index value less than 1.0 was considered synergistic.
Results [0391] Synergistic growth inhibition was observed with Compound A in combination with each of four different SPLAMs at multiple gICx points along the combination titration in a panel of MTAP-deficient cell lines (Tables 8A-8E, 9A-9E, 10A-10E, 11A-11E, and 12A- 12E). Combination synergy was also observed in two wild type cell lines, especially for the combinations with the more potent SPLAMs Indisulam and E7820 (Tables 8F-8G, 9F-9G, 10F-10G, and 11F-11G). While considered synergistic, the Combination Index values in the wild type cell lines were higher than those observed in the MTAP-deficient cell lines. In comparison to the wild type cell lines, the MTAP-deficient cell lines exhibited greater sensitivity to the combination with greater growth inhibition. Tables 8A-8G: Synergistic Growth Inhibition with Equimolar Combinations of Compound A and Indisulam Across Five MTAP-deficient and Two Wild Type Cell Lines [0392] Synergy was measured for equimolar combinations of Compound A and Indisulam utilizing the mutually non-exclusive Combination Index equation across gICx values ranging from gIC30 – gIC100.

Example 5: In Vitro Synergistic Growth Inhibition with a Four Splicing Inhibitor Sulfonamides in Combination with a Fixed Concentration of a MAT2A Inhibitor. Materials and Methods [0397] A 10-day proliferation assay was performed in a panel of 5 MTAP-deficient and 2 wild type non-small cell lung and bladder cancer cell lines. Optimal cell seeding for all cell lines was determined by assessing the growth over a range of seeding densities in a 384-well format to identify conditions that permitted proliferation for 10 days. Cells were then plated at the optimal seeding density and treated with 20-point, two-fold dilution series of each of four structurally different SPLAMs in combination with a 1000nM fixed concentration of Compound A. Single agent titrations for Compound A and each SPLAM were included for
comparison. Concentrations tested for each SPLAM alone or in combination ranged from 0.04 nM to 20,000 nM. A plate of cells was harvested at the time of compound addition to quantify the number of cells at the start of the combination (T0). For cell quantification, the harvested cells were lysed with Promega CellTiter-Glo (CTG) reagent according to the manufacturer’s protocol and the chemiluminescent signal was detected as described in Example 1 above. Cells were incubated with the drug combinations at 37°C with 5% CO2 for 10 days. Cells were then lysed with CTG and the chemiluminescent signal was measured. Analysis [0398] CTG values obtained after the 10-day treatment were background subtracted and expressed as a percent of the T0 value set at 100%. Data were plotted against compound concentration and fit with a four-parameter equation to generate single agent dose response curves. Percent inhibition was determined for each combination and single agent concentration compared to a DMSO control. In addition, the overall net growth or death of the cells was calculated and reported as a growth death index (GDI) value on a scale of -100 to 100 with the midpoint (0) being the number of cells at the beginning of the combination (T0). [0399] Synergistic growth inhibition was assessed using the Bliss Independence model for each point of the SPLAM titration in combination with 1000nM Compound A. The observed growth inhibition at each point was compared to the predicted inhibition based on the additive activity of each single agent dose. Predicted inhibition was calculated using (Ea+Eb) - (Ea*Eb) where E equals the effect (inhibition) of each single agent (a and b). A difference between the observed inhibition percentage and the predicted inhibition percentage greater than 10% was considered synergistic. A Bliss score was only reported for combinations eliciting >20% growth inhibition (GDI value <80). Since Bliss is calculated based on growth inhibition, scores within cytotoxic dose ranges may not accurately reflect synergistic cytoxicity. Results [0400] Synergistic growth inhibition was observed with each of four structurally different SPLAMs in combination with 1000nM Compound A across numerous points of the titration as assessed by Bliss Independence in 7/7 cell lines (Tables 13A-13B, 14A-14E, 15A-15B, 16A-16E, 17A-17B, 18A-18E, and 19A-19B). Within the context of each SPLAM, greater growth inhibition and synergy was observed at lower SPLAM doses within the MTAP-
deficient cell lines than in the wild type cell lines. Combination cytotoxicity was observed only within the MTAP-deficient NCI-H838, SW900, and RT112/84 cell lines and not in any wild type cell line.

Example 6: MAT2A and Topoisomerase Inhibitors Provide Combination Benefit in In Vitro MTAP-Deficient Models Materials and Methods [0408] A panel of 13 MTAP-deficient non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), bladder, pancreatic, gastric, esophageal, and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cancer cell lines was used to assess the combinatory effect of a MAT2A inhibitor (Compound A) and topoisomerase inhibitors: 10-hydroxycamptothecin, irinotecan, topotecan, daunorubicin, doxorubicin, and etoposide. To determine the optimal concentration range of each compound in each cell line for the combination screen, cells were seeded at 150 cells/well for Compound A or 500 cells/well for Topoisomerase inhibitors in a 384-well plate. After 24 hrs, cells were treated with a 9-point titration of each compound as a single agent and incubated at 37°C with 5% CO2 for 6 days. For the combination screen, cells were seeded at 150 cells/well in a 384-well plate. After 24 hrs, cells were co-treated with a 5-point titration of
each compound in an optimized 6x6 dose matrix and incubated at 37°C with 5% CO2 for 6 days. Cells were subsequently lysed with Promega CellTiter-Glo (CTG) 2.0 reagent according to the manufacturer's protocol and the chemiluminescent signal was measured using an EnVision plate reader (PerkinElmer) for cell number quantification. A plate of untreated cells was harvested at the time of compound addition (T0 or time zero) for cell number quantification using CTG. Each data point was run in technical triplicate. [0409] The percent of growth inhibition is calculated as: If T<V0 : 100*(1-(T-V0)/V0) 2< 5M 60 : 100*(1-(T-V0)/(V-V0)) [0410] where T is the signal measure for a test article, V is the vehicle-treated control measure, and V0 is the vehicle control measure at T0. The percent growth inhibition is used to generate dose-response curves and GI50 calculations for single drug activity and drug combination synergy using the Chalice Analyzer software (Horizon).100% and > 100% growth inhibition represented cytostasis and cytotoxicity, respectively. [0411] Synergistic growth inhibition was assessed using the Loewe additivity model. The observed growth inhibition at each dose was compared to the predicted inhibition based on the additive activity of either drug combined with itself. The calculation for Loewe additivity is: ILoewe that satisfies (X/XI) + (Y/YI) = 1, where XI and YI are the single agent effective concentrations for the observed combination effect I.

Synergistic growth inhibition was observed with each combination, but to varying degrees across the cell line panel. For instance, the combination of Compound A with 10-hydroxycamptothecin enhanced the growth inhibition
observed compared to either single agent and showed strong synergy (as determined by a synergy score of > 2.22) in 10/13 MTAP-deficient cell lines (FIG.2A-1 to FIG.2G, FIG.3A to FIG. 3G-2, and Table 20). [0415] Combination of Compound A with irinotecan also showed enhanced growth inhibition compared to single agents and showed synergy in 8/13 MTAP-deficient cell lines (FIG.4A-1 to FIG.4G, FIG.5A to FIG.5G-2, and Table 20). The combination of Compound A and topotecan also enhanced the growth inhibition observed with either single agent and showed synergy in 6/13 MTAP-deficient cell lines (FIG.6A-1 to FIG.6G, FIG. 7A to FIG.7G-2, and Table 20). The combination of Compound A and daunorubicin showed enhanced growth inhibition and strong synergy across 12/13 MTAP-deficient cell lines (FIG.8A-1 to FIG.8G, FIG.9A to FIG.9G-2, and Table 20). Combination of Compound A with doxorubicin showed enhanced growth inhibition and strong synergy in 8/13 MTAP-deficient cell lines (FIG.10A-1 to FIG.10G, FIG.11A to FIG.11G-2, and Table 20). The combination of Compound A and etoposide showed enhanced growth inhibition and strong synergy in 5/13 MTAP-deficient cell lines (FIG.12A-1 to FIG.12G, FIG.13A to FIG.13G-2, and Table 20). [0416] In growth inhibition figures, growth inhibition is presented as a percent of T0 for each cell line in a 6x6 dose matrix.50-100% growth inhibition is indicated by “*”, with 100% growth inhibition representing cytostasis. Greater than 100% growth inhibition is highlighted in dark gray and represents cytotoxicity. In Loewe synergy figures, synergy is measured at all tested concentrations of Compound A and 10-Hydroxycamptothecin using the Loewe additivity model for each cell line. Values >20 are indicated by “**” and are considered synergistic. Table 20: Synergy scores for the combination of Compound A and either 10- Hydroxycamptothecin (10-HCPT), Irinotecan, Topotecan, Daunorubicin, Doxorubicin, or Etoposide in 13 MTAP-deficient cell lines.

Example 7: Antti-tumor activity of Compound A and irinotecan in RT112/84 mouse xenograft model [0417] All mouse studies were approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) based on guidelines from the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Mice were maintained under pathogen-free conditions, and food and water were provided ad libitum. [0418] The anti-tumor effect of Compound A and irinotecan hydrochloride as single-agents or in combination was assessed in the RT112/84 human bladder tumor cell-derived xenograft (CDX) model. Cells were expanded in RPMI-1640 (Gibco, Catalog Number 11875093) with 10% fetal bovine serum. These cells were free of mycoplasma and authenticated by STR profiling. Five million cells in log growth phase were resuspended in Hanks Balanced Salt Solution containing 50% Matrigel and implanted subcutaneously into the flank of each recipient female Crl:NU-Foxn1nu mouse. Mice were housed in microisolator cages with corn cob bedding with additional enrichment consisting of sterile nesting material (Innovive) and Bio-huts (Bio-Serv). Water (Innovive) and diet (Teklad Global 19% Protein Extruded Diet 2919, Irradiated) were provided ad libitum. The environment was maintained on a 12- hour light cycle at approximately 68–72 °F and 40–60% relative humidity. [0419] Tumor Volume (TV) was calculated using the following formula: TV (mm3) = (width x width x length)/2. Tumor growth inhibition (TGI) was calculated by [(TV controlfinal – TV treatedfinal)/(TV controlfinal – TV controlinitial) x 100]. TV was analyzed for statistical significance utilizing GraphPad Prism version 10.0.3. Repeated Measures 2-Way ANOVA
with Tukey’s Multiple Comparisons was utilized, and P-values were derived from data collected on Day 14 (date of Vehicle group termination) and were considered statistically significant if less than 0.05. Tumor regression was calculated by using the percent change in tumor volume from the final tumor volume measurement from Day 73 when compared to the initial tumor volume from Day 1. Tumor regression was defined as reduced TV on Day 73 compared to Day 1. Tumor regression rate was defined as the percentage of animals per group with tumor regression. [0420] Mean tumor volume at dosing start was approximately 249 mm3, with ten mice randomized to each treatment group. Mice were dosed orally, once per day, with Vehicle, Compound A at 10 mg/kg, or dosed for 3 consecutive days followed by 4 days holiday by intraperitoneal (IP) injection of Compound B at 5 mg/kg, or combination of Compound A and Compound B. The vehicle group was a combination of Vehicle A (for Compound A, 0.5% 400 cps methylcellulose with 0.5% Tween-80 in sterile water) and Vehicle B (for irinotecan hydrochloride, Saline). Results [0421] Treatment with Compound A alone resulted in 53% TGI, while irinotecan hydrochloride alone resulted in 83% TGI. The combination of Compound A and irinotecan hydrochloride resulted in 90% TGI, as shown in Table 21 and FIG.14. The combination of Compound A and irinotecan hydrochloride increased the number of mice with tumor regressions, producing a 50% response rate on day 73, as compared to 30% produced by irinotecan hydrochloride alone, as shown in Table 21 and FIG.15.

Mice were maintained under pathogen-free conditions, and food and water were provided ad libitum. [0423] The anti-tumor effect of Compound A and irinotecan hydrochloride as single-agents or in combination was assessed in the MKN45 (RCB1001) human gastric tumor cell-derived xenograft (CDX) model. MKN45 was expanded in RPMI1640 with 10% fetal bovine serum. Cells were free of mycoplasma and authenticated by STR profiling, and ten million cells in log growth phase were resuspended in Hanks Balanced Salt Solution containing 50% Matrigel and implanted subcutaneously into the flank of each recipient female Crl:NU- Foxn1nu mouse.

[0424] Tumor Volume (TV) was calculated using the following formula: TV (mm3) = (width x width x length)/2. Tumor growth inhibition (TGI) was calculated by [(TV controlfinal – TV treatedfinal)/(TV controlfinal – TV controlinitial) x 100]. TV was analyzed for statistical significance utilizing GraphPad Prism version 10.2.2. Repeated Measures 2-Way ANOVA with Dunnet’s Multiple Comparisons was utilized, and P-values were derived from data collected on the date of Vehicle group termination and were considered statistically significant if less than 0.05. [0425] Mean tumor volume at dosing start was approximately 190 mm3, with six mice randomized to each treatment group. Mice were dosed orally, once per day, with Vehicle, Compound A at 10 mg/kg, or dosed for 3 consecutive days followed by 4 days holiday by intraperitoneal (IP) injection of Compound B at 5 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg, or combination of Compound A and Compound B. The vehicle group was a combination of Vehicle A (for Compound A, 0.5% 400 cps methylcellulose with 0.5% Tween-80 in sterile water) and Vehicle B (for irinotecan hydrochloride, Saline).
Results [0426] Treatment with Compound A alone resulted in 56% TGI, while irinotecan hydrochloride alone resulted in 49% TGI to 85% TGI. The combination of Compound A and irinotecan hydrochloride resulted in 103% TGI, as shown in Table 22 and FIG.16. The combination of Compound A and irinotecan hydrochloride increased the number of mice with tumor regressions, producing an 83% tumor regression rate on day 25, as compared to 0 to 17% produced by irinotecan hydrochloride alone, as shown in Table 22. Table 22: Summary of Anti-Tumor Activity of Compound A and Compound B in MKN45
Example 9. Anti-tumor activity of Compound A and irinotecan in Gastric mouse xenograft model LMSU [0427] All mouse studies were approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) based on guidelines from the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Mice were maintained under pathogen-free conditions, and food and water were provided ad libitum. [0428] The anti-tumor effect of Compound A and irinotecan hydrochloride as single-agents or in combination was assessed in the LMSU (RCB1062) human gastric tumor cell-derived xenograft (CDX) models. LMSU was expanded in HamF10 with 10% fetal bovine serum. Cells were free of mycoplasma and authenticated by STR profiling, and ten million cells in log growth phase were resuspended in Hanks Balanced Salt Solution containing 50% Matrigel and implanted subcutaneously into the flank of each recipient female Crl:NU- Foxn1nu mouse. Mice were housed in microisolator cages with corn cob bedding with additional enrichment consisting of sterile nesting material (Innovive) and Bio-huts (Bio-
Serv). Water (Innovive) and diet (Teklad Global 19% Protein Extruded Diet 2919, Irradiated) were provided ad libitum. The environment was maintained on a 12-hour light cycle at approximately 68–72 °F and 40–60% relative humidity. [0429] Tumor Volume (TV) was calculated using the following formula: TV (mm3) = (width x width x length)/2. Tumor growth inhibition (TGI) was calculated by [(TV controlfinal – TV treatedfinal)/(TV controlfinal – TV controlinitial) x 100]. TV was analyzed for statistical significance utilizing GraphPad Prism version 10.2.2. Repeated Measures 2-Way ANOVA with Dunnet’s Multiple Comparisons was utilized, and P-values were derived from data collected on the date of Vehicle group termination and were considered statistically significant if less than 0.05. [0430] Mean tumor volume at dosing start was approximately 185 mm3, with seven mice randomized to each treatment group. Mice were dosed orally, once per day, with Vehicle, Compound A at 10 mg/kg, or dosed for 3 consecutive days followed by 4 days holiday by intraperitoneal (IP) injection of Compound B at 5 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg, or combination of Compound A and Compound B. The vehicle group was a combination of Vehicle A (for Compound A, 0.5% 400 cps methylcellulose with 0.5% Tween-80 in sterile water) and Vehicle B (for irinotecan hydrochloride, Saline). Results [0431] Treatment with Compound A alone resulted in no significant TGI, while irinotecan hydrochloride alone resulted in 42% TGI to 80% TGI. The combination of Compound A and irinotecan hydrochloride resulted in 97% TGI, as shown in Table 23 and FIG.17. The combination of Compound A and irinotecan hydrochloride increased the number of mice with tumor regressions, producing a 29% tumor regression rate on day 25, as compared to 0 to 14% produced by irinotecan hydrochloride alone, as shown in Table 23.
