BACKGROUND

Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are cell surface proteins that transmit extracellular signals, such as growth signals, into the cell through kinase activity. RTKs regulate many crucial biological processes including development, proliferation, and cell homeostasis. Aberrations in RTK signaling may cause uncontrolled cell proliferation that ultimately leads to cancer.

The human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER)-family proteins are among the first RTKs to be identified and associated with cancer. HER is also known as ErbB, a name derived from the viral homolog erythroblastosis oncogene B. The HER family comprises 4 members: EGFR/HER1/ErbB1, HER2/ErbB2, HER3/ErbB3, and HER4/ErbB4. They share highly related structures involving an extracellular domain that binds ligands, a single-pass transmembrane domain, and an intracellular kinase domain. Several ligands have been identified for EGFR (such as EGF and TGF-α) and HER3/HER4 (such as neuregulins), whereas no ligands are known for HER2. Upon activation, the HER receptors form homo- or heterodimers to catalyze downstream signal transduction through the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), and other pathways.

EGFR dysregulation is a hallmark of many cancers. Cancer cells overactivate EGFR through various mechanisms including overexpression, missense mutations, insertions, and deletions. EGFR is frequently overexpressed in many solid tumors such as non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), breast cancer, glioblastoma, prostate cancer, colorectal cancer, head-and-neck cancer, and many others. EGFR variant 3 (EGFR vIII), which bears a large deletion of exons 2-7, is found in about 30% of glioblastoma. A variety of activating mutations in EGFR drive around 30% of NSCLC, with higher prevalence associated with adenocarcinoma histology, non-smokers, Asians, and women. These activating mutations are further divided into point mutations (predominantly L858R in exon 21), short deletions in exon 19 (predominantly E746_A750del), short insertions in exon 20, and other rarer mutations not specified here. L858R, E746_A750del, and exon 20 insertions account for about 35-40%, 40-45%, and 5-10% of all EGFR-mutant NSCLC cases, respectively.

HER2 dysregulation is also a well-documented cause of cancer. HER2 overexpression is found in 15-25% of breast cancer cases, representing one of the major molecular subtypes of breast cancer, as well as in ovarian cancer, gastric cancer, esophageal cancer, endometrial cancer, and lung cancer. HER2 mutations are found in about 2% of NSCLC patients but, unlike EGFR, are largely restricted to exon 20 insertions (predominantly A775_G776insYVMA).

Known agents used to treat oncogenic EGFR or HER2 have significant deficiencies including one or more of the following: toxicity arising from wild-type EGFR inhibition, limited activity in the central nervous system (CNS), and inadequate activity against exon 20 insertions and drug resistance mutations. EGFR has important epithelial functions in the gastrointestinal lining and on the skin of adult humans, so inhibition of non-mutated EGFR is believed to cause adverse reactions such as diarrhea and rash, which are common safety signals for many existing EGFR inhibitors. Up to 60% of EGFR-mutant and 45% of HER2-mutant NSCLC patients will develop brain metastases over the course of the disease; therefore, CNS activity is an important consideration for future therapeutic development. Among the major forms of EGFR and HER2 mutations, exon 20 insertions represent an unmet need as no targeted therapies have been FDA-approved for these indications. For these reasons, there is a need for development of a new generation of inhibitors that spare wild-type EGFR, penetrate the blood-brain barrier, and show specific activity against exon 20 insertions and/or drug-resistance mutations.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Definitions

Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the meaning commonly understood by a person skilled in the art of the present disclosure. The following references provide one of skill with a general definition of many of the terms used in this disclosure: Singleton et al., Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology (2nd ed. 1994); The Cambridge Dictionary of Science and Technology (Walker ed., 1988); The Glossary of Genetics, 5th Ed., R. Rieger et al. (eds.), Springer Verlag (1991); and Hale & Marham, The Harper Collins Dictionary of Biology (1991). As used herein, the following terms have the meanings ascribed to them below, unless specified otherwise.

In some embodiments, chemical structures are disclosed with a corresponding chemical name. In case of conflict, the chemical structure controls the meaning, rather than the name.

In this disclosure, “comprises,” “comprising,” “containing” and “having” and the like can have the meaning ascribed to them in U.S. patent law and can mean “includes,” “including,” and the like; “consisting essentially of” or “consists essentially” likewise has the meaning ascribed in U.S. patent law and the term is open-ended, allowing for the presence of more than that which is recited so long as basic or novel characteristics of that which is recited are not substantially changed by the presence of more than that which is recited, but excludes prior art embodiments.

Unless specifically stated or obvious from context, as used herein, the term “or” is understood to be inclusive. Unless specifically stated or obvious from context otherwise, as used herein, the terms “a”, “an”, and “the” are understood to be singular or plural.

The term “acyl” is art-recognized and refers to a group represented by the general formula hydrocarbylC(O)—, preferably alkylC(O)—.

The term “acylamino” is art-recognized and refers to an amino group substituted with an acyl group and may be represented, for example, by the formula hydrocarbylC(O)NH—.

The term “acyloxy” is art-recognized and refers to a group represented by the general formula hydrocarbylC(O)O—, preferably alkylC(O)O—.

The term “alkoxy” refers to an alkyl group, preferably a lower alkyl group, having an oxygen attached thereto. Representative alkoxy groups include methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, tert-butoxy and the like.

The term “alkoxyalkyl” refers to an alkyl group substituted with an alkoxy group and may be represented by the general formula alkyl-O-alkyl.

The term “alkenyl”, as used herein, refers to an aliphatic group containing at least one double bond and is intended to include both “unsubstituted alkenyls” and “substituted alkenyls”, the latter of which refers to alkenyl moieties having substituents replacing a hydrogen on one or more carbons of the alkenyl group. Such substituents may occur on one or more carbons that are included or not included in one or more double bonds. Moreover, such substituents include all those contemplated for alkyl groups, as discussed below, except where stability is prohibitive. For example, substitution of alkenyl groups by one or more alkyl, carbocyclyl, aryl, heterocyclyl, or heteroaryl groups is contemplated.

An “alkyl” group or “alkane” is a straight chained or branched non-aromatic hydrocarbon which is completely saturated. Typically, a straight chained or branched alkyl group has from 1 to about 20 carbon atoms, preferably from 1 to about 10 unless otherwise defined. Examples of straight chained and branched alkyl groups include methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, iso-propyl, n-butyl, sec-butyl, tert-butyl, pentyl, hexyl, pentyl and octyl. A C₁-C₆straight chained or branched alkyl group is also referred to as a “lower alkyl” group.

Moreover, the term “alkyl” (or “lower alkyl”) as used throughout the specification, examples, and claims is intended to include both “unsubstituted alkyls” and “substituted alkyls”, the latter of which refers to alkyl moieties having substituents replacing a hydrogen on one or more carbons of the hydrocarbon backbone. Such substituents, if not otherwise specified, can include, for example, a halogen, a hydroxyl, a carbonyl (such as a carboxyl, an alkoxycarbonyl, a formyl, or an acyl), a thiocarbonyl (such as a thioester, a thioacetate, or a thioformate), an alkoxy, a phosphoryl, a phosphate, a phosphonate, a phosphinate, an amino, an amido, an amidine, an imine, a cyano, a nitro, an azido, a sulfhydryl, an alkylthio, a sulfate, a sulfonate, a sulfamoyl, a sulfonamido, a sulfonyl, a heterocyclyl, an aralkyl, or an aromatic or heteroaromatic moiety. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the moieties substituted on the hydrocarbon chain can themselves be substituted, if appropriate. For instance, the substituents of a substituted alkyl may include substituted and unsubstituted forms of amino, azido, imino, amido, phosphoryl (including phosphonate and phosphinate), sulfonyl (including sulfate, sulfonamido, sulfamoyl and sulfonate), and silyl groups, as well as ethers, alkylthios, carbonyls (including ketones, aldehydes, carboxylates, and esters), —CF₃, —CN and the like. Exemplary substituted alkyls are described below. Cycloalkyls can be further substituted with alkyls, alkenyls, alkoxys, alkylthios, aminoalkyls, carbonyl-substituted alkyls, —CF₃, —CN, and the like.

The term “C_x-y” when used in conjunction with a chemical moiety, such as, acyl, acyloxy, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, or alkoxy is meant to include groups that contain from x to y carbons in the chain. For example, the term “C_x-yalkyl” refers to substituted or unsubstituted saturated hydrocarbon groups, including straight-chain alkyl and branched-chain alkyl groups that contain from x to y carbons in the chain, including haloalkyl groups such as trifluoromethyl and 2,2,2-tirfluoroethyl, etc. C₀alkyl indicates a hydrogen where the group is in a terminal position, a bond if internal. The terms “C_2-yalkenyl” and “C_2-yalkynyl” refer to substituted or unsubstituted unsaturated aliphatic groups analogous in length and possible substitution to the alkyls described above, but that contain at least one double or triple bond respectively.

In certain embodiments, compounds of the disclosure may be racemic. In certain embodiments, compounds of the disclosure may be enriched in one enantiomer. For example, a compound of the disclosure may have greater than about 30% ee, about 40% ee, about 50% ee, about 60% ee, about 70% ee, about 80% ee, about 90% ee, or even about 95% or greater ee. In certain embodiments, compounds of the disclosure may have more than one stereocenter. In certain such embodiments, compounds of the disclosure may be enriched in one or more diastereomer. For example, a compound of the disclosure may have greater than about 30% de, about 40% de, about 50% de, about 60% de, about 70% de, about 80% de, about 90% de, or even about 95% or greater de.

In certain embodiments, the therapeutic preparation may be enriched to provide predominantly one enantiomer of a compound (e.g., of Formula (I) or (II) or (III)). An enantiomerically enriched mixture may comprise, for example, at least about 60 mol percent of one enantiomer, or more preferably at least about 75, about 90, about 95, or even about 99 mol percent. In certain embodiments, the compound enriched in one enantiomer is substantially free of the other enantiomer, wherein substantially free means that the substance in question makes up less than about 10%, or less than about 5%, or less than about 4%, or less than about 3%, or less than about 2%, or less than about 1% as compared to the amount of the other enantiomer, e.g., in the composition or compound mixture.

In certain embodiments, the therapeutic preparation may be enriched to provide predominantly one diastereomer of a compound (e.g., of Formula (I) or (II) or (III)). A diastereomerically enriched mixture may comprise, for example, at least about 60 mol percent of one diastereomer, or more preferably at least about 75, about 90, about 95, or even about 99 mol percent.

As used herein, the term “stereoisomers” refer to isomeric molecules that have the same molecular constitution and connectivity, but a different three-dimensional spatial arrangement of the atoms. Stereoisomers are isomers that differ in spatial arrangement of atoms, rather than order of atomic connectivity. In some embodiments, “stereoisomers” refer to the various stereoisomeric forms of a compound that comprises one or more asymmetric centers or stereohindrance in the structure. In some embodiments, a stereoisomer is an enantiomer, a mixture of enantiomers, an atropisomer, or a tautomer thereof. In some embodiments, the compounds described herein can be in the form of an individual enantiomer, diastereomer or geometric isomer (e.g. an atropisomer), or can be in the form of a mixture of stereoisomers, including racemic mixtures and mixtures enriched in one or more stereoisomer. In some embodiments, a steroiosmer includes diastereoisomer(s), enantiomer(s), a mixtutre of diastereoisomers, and a mixture of enantiomers. In some embodiments, compounds provided herein may be atropisomers. In certain embodiments, atropisomers are stereoisomers arising because of hindered rotation about a single bond, where energy differences due to steric strain or other contributors create a barrier to rotation that is high enough to allow for isolation of individual conformers. Stereoisomers can be isolated from mixtures by methods known to those skilled in the art, including chiral high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) and the formation and crystallization of chiral salts; or preferred isomers can be prepared by asymmetric syntheses. See, for example, Jacques et al., Enantiomers, Racemates and Resolutions (Wiley Interscience, New York, 1981); Wilen et al., Tetrahedron 33:2725 (1977); Eliel, E. L. Stereochemistry of Carbon Compounds (McGraw-Hill, N Y, 1962); and Wilen, S. H. Tables of Resolving Agents and Optical Resolutions p. 268 (E. L. Eliel, Ed., Univ. of Notre Dame Press, Notre Dame, IN 1972).

The term “subject” to which administration is contemplated includes, but is not limited to, humans (i.e., a male or female of any age group, e.g., a pediatric subject (e.g., infant, child, adolescent) or adult subject (e.g., young adult, middle-aged adult or senior adult)) and/or other primates (e.g., cynomolgus monkeys, rhesus monkeys). In certain embodiments, the mammal is a human subject.

As used herein, a therapeutic that “prevents” a disorder or condition refers to a compound that, in a statistical sample, reduces the occurrence of the disorder or condition in the treated sample relative to an untreated control sample, or delays the onset or reduces the severity of one or more symptoms of the disorder or condition relative to the untreated control sample.

The term “treating” includes prophylactic and/or therapeutic treatments. The term “prophylactic or therapeutic” treatment is art-recognized and includes administration to the subject of one or more of the disclosed compositions. If it is administered prior to clinical manifestation of the unwanted condition (e.g., disease or other unwanted state of the subject) then the treatment is prophylactic (i.e., it protects the subject against developing the unwanted condition), whereas if it is administered after manifestation of the unwanted condition, the treatment is therapeutic, (i.e., it is intended to diminish, ameliorate, or stabilize the existing unwanted condition or side effects thereof).

The term “prodrug” is intended to encompass compounds which, under physiologic conditions, are converted into the therapeutically active agents of the present disclosure. A common method for making a prodrug is to include one or more selected moieties which are hydrolyzed under physiologic conditions to reveal the desired molecule. In other embodiments, the prodrug is converted by an enzymatic activity of the subject. For example, esters or carbonates (e.g., esters or carbonates of alcohols or carboxylic acids) are preferred prodrugs of the present disclosure. In certain embodiments, some or all of the compounds as disclosed herein in a formulation represented above can be replaced with the corresponding suitable prodrug, e.g., wherein a hydroxyl in the parent compound is presented as an ester or a carbonate or carboxylic acid.

An “effective amount”, as used herein, refers to an amount that is sufficient to achieve a desired biological effect. A “therapeutically effective amount”, as used herein, refers to an amount that is sufficient to achieve a desired therapeutic effect.

Provided herein are methods of treating cancer, comprising administering to a mammal in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a compound disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the cancer is non-small cell lung cancer. In other embodiments the cancer is squamous head and neck cancer. In certain embodiments, the non-small cell lung cancer has one or more ErbB family mutations. In other embodiments, the non-small cell lung cancer has one or more EGFR ex20 insertion mutations. In some embodiments, the non-small cell lung cancer has one or more HER2 ex20 insertion mutations. In certain embodiments, the mammal is a human. In some embodiments, the compound is administered orally or intravenously.

Methods of Use

In one aspect, provided herein are methods of preventing and/or treating a proliferative disease such as cancer in a subject (e.g., a subject in need thereof). The methods comprise administering to the subject a compound of the present disclosure (e.g., an effective amount, such as a therapeutically effective amount).

Cancer is a disease of uncontrolled cell proliferation that results from alterations in certain genes. Some of these alterations occur in genes that encode receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), a family of membrane-bound proteins that transmit signals from outside the cell to promote cell survival, growth, and proliferation. Aberrant RTK activation can lead to excessive cell proliferation and hence cancer. Generally, RTKs contain an N-terminal domain that binds extracellular ligands, a transmembrane domain, and a C-terminal kinase domain that catalyzes intracellular signal transduction.

The human EGFR, also known as ErbB1 or HER1, is an RTK encoded by the EGFR gene on chromosome 7. Multiple ligands of EGFR have been identified including epidermal growth factor (EGF), transforming growth factor α (TGF-α), amphiregulin (AREG), heparin-binding EGFR-like growth factor (HB-EGF), betacellulin (BTC), epiregulin (EPR), and epigen (EPGN). EGFR is believed to play essential roles in development, proliferation, differentiation, and migration of mammalian cells. EGFR-deficient mice do not survive the first few weeks of life and show improper development of various organs including, but not limited to, the skin, the gut, and the nervous system. In humans, EGFR overexpression and activating mutations are a well-documented cause of cancer. EGFR overexpression is found in many solid tumors at high frequency and can be targeted with FDA-approved monoclonal antibodies: cetuximab, panitumumab, and necitumumab.

In some embodiments, the compound of the present disclosure is a regulator of HER2. The human HER2, also known as ErbB2, is an RTK encoded by the ERBB2 gene on chromosome 17. There are no known ligands for HER2, but it can modulate downstream signaling by heterodimerizing with other HER2-family RTKs, including EGFR. Mouse studies have demonstrated the essential roles of HER2 in mammalian development and cell differentiation, particularly in the cardiac and the nervous systems. HER2 deficiency is embryonically lethal in mice due to abnormal cardiac development, and conditional HER2 deletion causes defects in neuronal cell maturation, myelination, and migration. In humans, HER2 overexpression and activating mutations are known causes of cancer. HER2 overexpression is found in many solid tumors, most notably in 15-25% breast cancer. HER2 amplification is observed in cancers including esophagogastric cancer, breast cancer, peritoneal cancer, salivary gland cancer, bladder cancer, endometrial cancer, ampullary cancer, small bowel cancer, vaginal cancer, cervical cancer, hepatobillary cancer, ovarian cancer, colorectal cancer, NSCLC, head and neck cancer, pancreatic cancer, skin cancer, appendiceal cancer, B-lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma, melanoma, germ cell tumor, small cell lung cancer, mature B-cell neoplasms, prostate cancer, soft tissue sarcoma, and glioma. Many targeted therapies have been developed for the treatment of HER2-positive breast cancer including monoclonal antibodies (trastuzumab and pertuzumab), antibody-drug conjugates (ado-trastuzumab emtansine and fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan), and small-molecule kinase inhibitors (lapatinib, neratinib, and tucatinib). Tucatinib, the most recent FDA-approved HER2 inhibitor, extended the objective response rate from 23% to 41%, the median progression free survival from 5.6 to 7.8 months, and the median overall survival from 17.4 to 21.9 months compared to placebo. In contrast, HER2 exon 20 insertions are found in about 2% of NSCLC, but no targeted therapies have been approved for these mutations.

Many existing HER2 therapies including erlotinib, gefitinib, afatinib, dacomitinib, lapatinib, and neratinib are also potent inhibitors of wild-type EGFR. This presents a substantial drawback because native EGFR plays important roles in epithelial biology, including the integrity of the skin and the gut lining. Inhibition of wild-type EGFR is associated with common adverse reactions including skin rash, diarrhea, and stomatitis. New therapies that spare wild-type EGFR while selectively targeting mutant HER2 are a need in the art.

In one aspect, provided herein are methods of treating and/or preventing a proliferative disease, wherein the inhibition of wild type HER2 and/or mutant HER2 provides therapeutic benefit. In certain embodiments, provided herein are methods of treating and/or preventing a proliferative disease, wherein the inhibition of HER2 exon 20 mutant protein provides therapeutic benefit.

In another aspect, provided herein are methods of inhibiting wild type and/or mutant HER2, in a subject in need thereof, comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound as described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In another embodiments, provided herein are methods of inhibiting a HER2 exon 20 mutant, in a subject in need thereof, comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound as described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

Furthermore, some compounds of the present invention show an improved pharmacokinetic and pharmacological profile. In some embodiments, the compounds as described herein have minimal activities against related kinase (e.g., wt EGFR). Inhibition of wt EGFR causes undesirable side effects (e.g., diarrhea and skin rashes) that can impact quality of life and compliance of treatments.

In some embodiments, the human subject has been identified or diagnosed as having a cancer associated with HER2 overexpression, and/or HER2 amplification, and/or HER2 exon 20 mutation(s) (a HER2-associated cancer) (e.g., as determined using a regulatory agency-approved, e.g., FDA-approved, assay or kit). In some embodiments, the subject has a tumor that is positive for HER2 overexpression, and/or HER2 amplification, and/or HER2 exon 20 mutation(s) (e.g., as determined using a regulatory agency-approved assay or kit). The subject can be a subject whose tumors have HER2 overexpression, and/or HER2 amplification, and/or HER2 exon 20 mutation(s) (e.g., where the tumor is identified as such using a regulatory agency-approved, e.g., FDA-approved, kit or assay). In some embodiments, the subject is suspected of having a HER2-associated cancer. In some embodiments, the subject has a clinical record indicating that the subject has a tumor that has HER2 overexpression, and/or HER2 amplification, and/or HER2 exon 20 mutation(s).

In some embodiments of any of the methods or uses described herein, an assay used to determine whether the subject has HER2 overexpression, and/or HER2 amplification, and/or HER2 exon 20 mutation(s), using a sample from a subject can include, for example, next generation sequencing, immunohistochemistry, fluorescence microscopy, break apart FISH analysis, Southern blotting, Western blotting, FACS analysis, Northern blotting, and PCR-based amplification (e.g., RT-PCR and quantitative real-time RT-PCR). As is well-known in the art, the assays are typically performed, e.g., with at least one labelled nucleic acid probe or at least one labelled antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof. Assays can utilize other detection methods known in the art for detecting HER2 overexpression, and/or HER2 amplification, and/or HER2 exon 20 mutation(s) (see, e.g., the references cited herein). In some embodiments, the sample is a biological sample or a biopsy sample (e.g., a paraffin-embedded biopsy sample) from the subject. In some embodiments, the subject is a subject suspected of having a HER2-associated cancer, a subject having one or more symptoms of a HER2-associated cancer, and/or a subject that has an increased risk of developing a HER2-associated cancer.

In some embodiments, HER2 overexpression, and/or HER2 amplification, and/or HER2 exon 20 mutation(s) can be identified using a liquid biopsy (variously referred to as a fluid biopsy or fluid phase biopsy). See, e.g., Karachialiou et al., “Real-time liquid biopsies become a reality in cancer treatment”, Ann. Transl. Med., 3(3):36, 2016. Liquid biopsy methods can be used to detect total tumor burden and/or the dysregulation of a HER2 gene, a HER2 kinasev, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same. Liquid biopsies can be performed on biological samples obtained relatively easily from a subject (e.g., via a simple blood draw) and are generally less invasive than traditional methods used to detect tumor burden and/or dysregulation of a HER2 gene, a HER2 kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same. In some embodiments, liquid biopsies can be used to detect the presence of HER2 overexpression, and/or HER2 amplification, and/or HER2 exon 20 mutation(s) at an earlier stage than traditional methods. In some embodiments, the biological sample to be used in a liquid biopsy can include, blood, plasma, urine, cerebrospinal fluid, saliva, sputum, broncho-alveolar lavage, bile, lymphatic fluid, cyst fluid, stool, ascites, and combinations thereof. In some embodiments, a liquid biopsy can be used to detect circulating tumor cells (CTCs). In some embodiments, a liquid biopsy can be used to detect cell-free DNA. In some embodiments, cell-free DNA detected using a liquid biopsy is circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) that is derived from tumor cells. Analysis of ctDNA (e.g., using sensitive detection techniques such as, without limitation, next-generation sequencing (NGS), traditional PCR, digital PCR, or microarray analysis) can be used to identify HER2 overexpression, and/or HER2 amplification, and/or HER2 exon 20 mutation(s).

In some embodiments, the compounds of the present disclosure inhibit a HER2 exon 20 mutant in a subject with NSCLC. In some embodiments, HER2 exon 20 mutant is one or more from the group consisting of YVMA insertion, VC insertion, and GSP insertion. In some embodiments, the compounds of the present disclosure inhibit a HER2 non-exon 20 mutant. In some embodiments, the compounds of the present disclosure selectively inhibit HER2 non-exon 20 mutant(s) over EGFR wild type and/or mutants (e.g., exon 20). In some embodiments, the HER2 non-exon 20 mutant is one or more from the group consisting of S310X (e.g., S310F and S310Y), R678Q, V842I, L755S, G776V, and V777X. In some embodiments, the non-exon 20 mutation is one or more selected from L755S, S310F, R678Q, V842I, and V777X.

In some embodiments, the cell is in a human subject having cancer associated with HER2 overexpression and/or HER2 amplification and/or HER2 mutation(s). In some embodiments, the cell is isolated from a mammal (e.g., a human subject having cancer).

A “proliferative disease” refers to a disease that occurs due to abnormal growth or extension by the multiplication of cells (Walker, Cambridge Dictionary of Biology; Cambridge University Press: Cambridge, UK, 1990). A proliferative disease may be associated with: (1) the pathological proliferation of normally quiescent cells; (2) the pathological migration of cells from their normal location (e.g., metastasis of neoplastic cells); (3) the pathological expression of proteolytic enzymes such as the matrix metalloproteinases (e.g., collagenases, gelatinases, and elastases); and/or (4) pathological angiogenesis, as in proliferative retinopathy and tumor metastasis. Non-limiting examples of proliferative diseases include cancer (i.e., “malignant neoplasms”), benign neoplasms, angiogenesis, inflammatory diseases and autoimmune diseases.

The terms “neoplasm” and “tumor” are used herein interchangeably and refer to an abnormal mass of tissue wherein the growth of the mass surpasses and is not coordinated with the growth of a normal tissue. A neoplasm or tumor may be “benign” or “malignant,” depending, for example, on the following characteristics: degree of cellular differentiation (including morphology and functionality), rate of growth, local invasion, and metastasis.

A “benign neoplasm” is generally well differentiated, has characteristically slower growth than a malignant neoplasm, and remains localized to the site of origin. In addition, a benign neoplasm does not have the capacity to infiltrate, invade, or metastasize to distant sites. Non-limiting examples of benign neoplasms include, but are not limited to, lipomas, chondromas, adenomas, acrochordons, senile angiomas, seborrheic keratoses, lentigos, and sebaceous hyperplasias.

In some cases, benign tumors may later give rise to malignant neoplasms, which may result from additional genetic changes in a subpopulation of the tumor's neoplastic cells. Such tumors are referred to as “pre-malignant neoplasms.” An exemplary pre-malignant neoplasm is a teratoma.

A “malignant neoplasm” is generally poorly differentiated (anaplasia) and has characteristically rapid growth accompanied by progressive infiltration, invasion, and destruction of the surrounding tissue. Furthermore, a malignant neoplasm generally has the capacity to metastasize to distant sites. The term “metastasis,” “metastatic,” or “metastasize” refers to the spread or migration of cancerous cells from a primary or original tumor to another organ or tissue, and is typically identifiable by the presence of a “secondary tumor” or “secondary cell mass” of the tissue type of the primary or original tumor and not of that of the organ or tissue in which the secondary (metastatic) tumor is located.

In certain embodiments, the proliferative disease is cancer. Accordingly, provided herein are methods for treating a cancer in a subject (e.g., a subject in need thereof), comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of the present disclosure.

The term “cancer” refers to a class of diseases characterized by the development of abnormal cells that proliferate uncontrollably and have the ability to infiltrate and destroy normal body tissues.

In certain embodiments, the cancer is a rare cancer. The term “rare cancer” refers to cancers that occur in a relatively small number of patients.

In some embodiments, a proliferative disease, such as cancer (e.g., a fibrotic cancer), is treated by targeting a tumor stromal cell (e.g., in a tumor microenvironment), such as a cancer-associated fibroblast (CAF), stellate cell or myofibroblast, and/or an immune cell, such as a tumor-associated immune cell (e.g., in the tumor-immune microenvironment), for example, to thereby modulate the tumor-stroma microenvironment and/or the tumor-immune microenvironment.

Also provided herein are methods for targeting a tumor stromal cell or immune cell (e.g., tumor-associated immune cell), and/or (e.g., and thereby) modulating (e.g., normalizing) tumor microenvironment (e.g., tumor-stroma microenvironment and/or tumor-immune microenvironment) in vivo or in vitro, the methods comprising contacting a tumor stromal cell or an immune cell (e.g., a tumor-associated immune cell) with a compound of the present disclosure. In certain embodiments, the inhibition occurs in vivo in a subject. In certain embodiments, the inhibition occurs in vitro (e.g., in a cell line, tissue or biological sample). In certain embodiments, the tumor stromal cell is a cancer-associated fibroblast (CAF), a stellate cell or a myofibroblast.

Without wishing to be bound by any particular theory, it is believed that certain compounds can normalize the tumor microenvironment and thereby improve blood vessel perfusion and drug delivery. Enhanced drug delivery is expected, in turn, to enhance the efficacy of a drug, such as an immunomodulator (e.g., immunooncology agent), including any immunomodulator described herein. Accordingly, also provided herein are methods for modulating (e.g., normalizing) tumor microenvironment (e.g., tumor-stroma microenvironment and/or tumor-immune microenvironment) in vivo or in vitro, the methods comprising contacting a tumor with a compound of the present disclosure.

Also provided herein are methods of inhibiting viral infection and/or viral replication in a subject in need thereof, comprising administering to the subject an effective amount (e.g., a therapeutically effective amount, prophylactically effective amount) of a compound of the present disclosure.

In certain embodiments, the conjoint therapies of the disclosure comprise conjoint administration with other types of chemotherapeutic agents, such as immuno-oncology agents. Cancer cells often have specific cell surface antigens that can be recognized by the immune system. Thus, immuno-oncology agents, such as monoclonal antibodies, can selectively bind to cancer cell antigens and effect cell death. Other immuno-oncology agents can suppress tumor-mediated inhibition of the native immune response or otherwise activate the immune response and thus facilitate recognition of the tumor by the immune system. Exemplary antibody immuno-oncology agents, include, but are not limited to, abagovomab, adecatumumab, afutuzumab, alemtuzumab, anatumomab mafenatox, apolizumab, blinatumomab, BMS-936559, catumaxomab, durvalumab, epacadostat, epratuzumab, indoximod, inotuzumab ozogamicin, intelumumab, ipilimumab, isatuximab, lambrolizumab, MED14736, MPDL3280A, nivolumab, obinutuzumab, ocaratuzumab, ofatumumab, olatatumab, pembrolizumab, pidilizumab, rituximab, ticilimumab, samalizumab, and tremelimumab.

When administered to subject, such as a human, the composition or the compound is preferably administered as a pharmaceutical composition comprising, for example, a compound of the disclosure and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers are well known in the art and include, for example, aqueous solutions such as water or physiologically buffered saline or other solvents or vehicles such as glycols, glycerol, oils such as olive oil, or injectable organic esters. In a preferred embodiment, when such pharmaceutical compositions are for human administration, particularly for invasive routes of administration (i.e., routes, such as injection or implantation, that circumvent transport or diffusion through an epithelial barrier), the aqueous solution is pyrogen-free, or substantially pyrogen-free. The excipients can be chosen, for example, to effect delayed release of an agent or to selectively target one or more cells, tissues or organs. The pharmaceutical composition can be in dosage unit form such as tablet, capsule (including sprinkle capsule and gelatin capsule), granule, lyophile for reconstitution, suspension, cream, gel, ointment, aerosol infusion, powder, solution, syrup, suppository, injection or the like. The composition can also be present in a transdermal delivery system, e.g., a skin patch. The composition can also be present in a solution suitable for topical administration, such as an eye drop.

A pharmaceutically acceptable carrier can contain physiologically acceptable agents that act, for example, to stabilize, increase solubility or to increase the absorption of a compound or to enable manufacturing such as a compound of the disclosure. Such physiologically acceptable agents include, for example, carbohydrates, such as glucose, sucrose or dextrans, antioxidants, such as ascorbic acid or glutathione, chelating agents, low molecular weight proteins or other stabilizers or excipients. The choice of a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, including a physiologically acceptable agent, depends, for example, on the route of administration of the composition. The preparation or pharmaceutical composition can be a self-emulsifying drug delivery system or a self-microemulsifying drug delivery system. The pharmaceutical composition (preparation) also can be a liposome or other polymer matrix, which can have incorporated therein, for example, a compound of the disclosure. Liposomes, for example, which comprise phospholipids or other lipids, are nontoxic, physiologically acceptable and metabolizable carriers that are relatively simple to make and administer.

The phrase “pharmaceutically acceptable” is employed herein to refer to those compounds, materials, compositions, and/or dosage forms which are, within the scope of sound medical judgment, suitable for use in contact with the tissues of a subject without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic response, or other problem or complication, commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio.

The phrase “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” as used herein means a pharmaceutically acceptable material, composition or vehicle, such as a liquid or solid filler, diluent, excipient, solvent or encapsulating material. Each carrier must be “acceptable” in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation and not injurious to the subject. Some examples of materials which can serve as pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include: (1) sugars, such as lactose, glucose and sucrose; (2) starches, such as corn starch and potato starch; (3) cellulose, and its derivatives, such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose and cellulose acetate; (4) powdered tragacanth; (5) malt; (6) gelatin; (7) talc; (8) excipients, such as cocoa butter and suppository waxes; (9) oils, such as peanut oil, cottonseed oil, safflower oil, sesame oil, olive oil, corn oil and soybean oil; (10) glycols, such as propylene glycol; (11) polyols, such as glycerin, sorbitol, mannitol and polyethylene glycol; (12) esters, such as ethyl oleate and ethyl laurate; (13) agar; (14) buffering agents, such as magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide; (15) alginic acid; (16) pyrogen-free water; (17) isotonic saline; (18) Ringer's solution; (19) ethyl alcohol; (20) phosphate buffer solutions; and (21) other non-toxic compatible substances employed in pharmaceutical formulations.

A pharmaceutical composition (preparation) can be administered to a subject by any of a number of routes of administration including, for example, orally (for example, drenches as in aqueous or non-aqueous solutions or suspensions, tablets, capsules (including sprinkle capsules and gelatin capsules), boluses, powders, granules, pastes for application to the tongue); absorption through the oral mucosa (e.g., sublingually); anally, rectally or vaginally (for example, as a pessary, cream or foam); parenterally (including intramuscularly, intravenously, subcutaneously or intrathecally as, for example, a sterile solution or suspension); nasally; intraperitoneally; subcutaneously; transdermally (for example as a patch applied to the skin); and topically (for example, as a cream, ointment or spray applied to the skin, or as an eye drop). The compound may also be formulated for inhalation. In certain embodiments, a compound may be simply dissolved or suspended in sterile water. Details of appropriate routes of administration and compositions suitable for same can be found in, for example, U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,110,973, 5,763,493, 5,731,000, 5,541,231, 5,427,798, 5,358,970 and 4,172,896, as well as in patents cited therein.

The formulations may conveniently be presented in unit dosage form and may be prepared by any methods well known in the art of pharmacy. The amount of active ingredient which can be combined with a carrier material to produce a single dosage form will vary depending upon the subject being treated, the particular mode of administration. The amount of active ingredient that can be combined with a carrier material to produce a single dosage form will generally be that amount of the compound which produces a therapeutic effect. Generally, out of one hundred percent, this amount will range from about 1 percent to about ninety-nine percent of active ingredient, preferably from about 5 percent to about 70 percent, most preferably from about 10 percent to about 30 percent.

Methods of preparing these formulations or compositions include the step of bringing into association an active compound, such as a compound of the disclosure, with the carrier and, optionally, one or more accessory ingredients. In general, the formulations are prepared by uniformly and intimately bringing into association a compound of the present disclosure with liquid carriers, or finely divided solid carriers, or both, and then, if necessary, shaping the product.

Formulations of the disclosure suitable for oral administration may be in the form of capsules (including sprinkle capsules and gelatin capsules), cachets, pills, tablets, lozenges (using a flavored basis, usually sucrose and acacia or tragacanth), lyophile, powders, granules, or as a solution or a suspension in an aqueous or non-aqueous liquid, or as an oil-in-water or water-in-oil liquid emulsion, or as an elixir or syrup, or as pastilles (using an inert base, such as gelatin and glycerin, or sucrose and acacia) and/or as mouth washes and the like, each containing a predetermined amount of a compound of the present disclosure as an active ingredient. Compositions or compounds may also be administered as a bolus, electuary or paste.

To prepare solid dosage forms for oral administration (capsules (including sprinkle capsules and gelatin capsules), tablets, pills, dragees, powders, granules and the like), the active ingredient is mixed with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, such as sodium citrate or dicalcium phosphate, and/or any of the following: (1) fillers or extenders, such as starches, lactose, sucrose, glucose, mannitol, and/or silicic acid; (2) binders, such as, for example, carboxymethylcellulose, alginates, gelatin, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, sucrose and/or acacia; (3) humectants, such as glycerol; (4) disintegrating agents, such as agar-agar, calcium carbonate, potato or tapioca starch, alginic acid, certain silicates, and sodium carbonate; (5) solution retarding agents, such as paraffin; (6) absorption accelerators, such as quaternary ammonium compounds; (7) wetting agents, such as, for example, cetyl alcohol and glycerol monostearate; (8) absorbents, such as kaolin and bentonite clay; (9) lubricants, such a talc, calcium stearate, magnesium stearate, solid polyethylene glycols, sodium lauryl sulfate, and mixtures thereof; (10) complexing agents, such as, modified and unmodified cyclodextrins; and (11) coloring agents. In the case of capsules (including sprinkle capsules and gelatin capsules), tablets and pills, the pharmaceutical compositions may also comprise buffering agents. Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers in soft and hard-filled gelatin capsules using such excipients as lactose or milk sugars, as well as high molecular weight polyethylene glycols and the like.

A tablet may be made by compression or molding, optionally with one or more accessory ingredients. Compressed tablets may be prepared using binder (for example, gelatin or hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose), lubricant, inert diluent, preservative, disintegrant (for example, sodium starch glycolate or cross-linked sodium carboxymethyl cellulose), surface-active or dispersing agent. Molded tablets may be made by molding in a suitable machine a mixture of the powdered compound moistened with an inert liquid diluent.

The tablets, and other solid dosage forms of the pharmaceutical compositions, such as dragees, capsules (including sprinkle capsules and gelatin capsules), pills and granules, may optionally be scored or prepared with coatings and shells, such as enteric coatings and other coatings well known in the pharmaceutical-formulating art. They may also be formulated so as to provide slow or controlled release of the active ingredient therein using, for example, hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose in varying proportions to provide the desired release profile, other polymer matrices, liposomes and/or microspheres. They may be sterilized by, for example, filtration through a bacteria-retaining filter, or by incorporating sterilizing agents in the form of sterile solid compositions that can be dissolved in sterile water, or some other sterile injectable medium immediately before use. These compositions may also optionally contain opacifying agents and may be of a composition that they release the active ingredient(s) only, or preferentially, in a certain portion of the gastrointestinal tract, optionally, in a delayed manner. Examples of embedding compositions that can be used include polymeric substances and waxes. The active ingredient can also be in micro-encapsulated form, if appropriate, with one or more of the above-described excipients.

Liquid dosage forms useful for oral administration include pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, lyophiles for reconstitution, microemulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups and elixirs. In addition to the active ingredient, the liquid dosage forms may contain inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as, for example, water or other solvents, cyclodextrins and derivatives thereof, solubilizing agents and emulsifiers, such as ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, propylene glycol, 1,3-butylene glycol, oils (in particular, cottonseed, groundnut, corn, germ, olive, castor and sesame oils), glycerol, tetrahydrofuryl alcohol, polyethylene glycols and fatty acid esters of sorbitan, and mixtures thereof.

Besides inert diluents, the oral compositions can also include adjuvants such as wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, sweetening, flavoring, coloring, perfuming and preservative agents.

Suspensions, in addition to the active compounds, may contain suspending agents as, for example, ethoxylated isostearyl alcohols, polyoxyethylene sorbitol and sorbitan esters, microcrystalline cellulose, aluminum metahydroxide, bentonite, agar-agar and tragacanth, and mixtures thereof.

Formulations of the pharmaceutical compositions for rectal, vaginal, or urethral administration may be presented as a suppository, which may be prepared by mixing one or more active compounds with one or more suitable nonirritating excipients or carriers comprising, for example, cocoa butter, polyethylene glycol, a suppository wax or a salicylate, and which is solid at room temperature, but liquid at body temperature and, therefore, will melt in the rectum or vaginal cavity and release the active compound.

Formulations of the pharmaceutical compositions for administration to the mouth may be presented as a mouthwash, or an oral spray, or an oral ointment.

Alternatively, or additionally, compositions can be formulated for delivery via a catheter, stent, wire, or other intraluminal device. Delivery via such devices may be especially useful for delivery to the bladder, urethra, ureter, rectum, or intestine.

Formulations which are suitable for vaginal administration also include pessaries, tampons, creams, gels, pastes, foams, or spray formulations containing such carriers as are known in the art to be appropriate.

Dosage forms for the topical or transdermal administration include powders, sprays, ointments, pastes, creams, lotions, gels, solutions, patches and inhalants. The active compound may be mixed under sterile conditions with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, and with any preservatives, buffers, or propellants that may be required.

The ointments, pastes, creams and gels may contain, in addition to an active compound, excipients, such as animal and vegetable fats, oils, waxes, paraffins, starch, tragacanth, cellulose derivatives, polyethylene glycols, silicones, bentonites, silicic acid, talc and zinc oxide, or mixtures thereof.

Powders and sprays can contain, in addition to an active compound, excipients such as lactose, talc, silicic acid, aluminum hydroxide, calcium silicates and polyamide powder, or mixtures of these substances. Sprays can additionally contain customary propellants, such as chlorofluorohydrocarbons and volatile unsubstituted hydrocarbons, such as butane and propane.

Transdermal patches have the added advantage of providing controlled delivery of a compound of the present disclosure to the body. Such dosage forms can be made by dissolving or dispersing the active compound in the proper medium. Absorption enhancers can also be used to increase the flux of the compound across the skin. The rate of such flux can be controlled by either providing a rate controlling membrane or dispersing the compound in a polymer matrix or gel.

Ophthalmic formulations, eye ointments, powders, solutions and the like, are also contemplated as being within the scope of this disclosure. Exemplary ophthalmic formulations are described in U.S. Publication Nos. 2005/0080056, 2005/0059744, 2005/0031697 and 2005/004074 and U.S. Pat. No. 6,583,124, the contents of each of which are incorporated herein by reference. If desired, liquid ophthalmic formulations have properties similar to that of lacrimal fluids, aqueous humor or vitreous humor or are compatible with such fluids. A preferred route of administration is local administration (e.g., topical administration, such as eye drops, or administration via an implant).

The phrases “parenteral administration” and “administered parenterally” as used herein means modes of administration other than enteral and topical administration, usually by injection, and includes, without limitation, intravenous, intramuscular, intraarterial, intrathecal, intracapsular, intraorbital, intracardiac, intradermal, intraperitoneal, transtracheal, subcutaneous, subcuticular, intraarticular, subcapsular, subarachnoid, intraspinal and intrasternal injection and infusion.

Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for parenteral administration comprise one or more active compounds in combination with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable sterile isotonic aqueous or nonaqueous solutions, dispersions, suspensions or emulsions, or sterile powders which may be reconstituted into sterile injectable solutions or dispersions just prior to use, which may contain antioxidants, buffers, bacteriostats, solutes which render the formulation isotonic with the blood of the intended recipient or suspending or thickening agents.

Examples of suitable aqueous and nonaqueous carriers that may be employed in the pharmaceutical compositions of the disclosure include water, ethanol, polyols (such as glycerol, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, and the like), and suitable mixtures thereof, vegetable oils, such as olive oil, and injectable organic esters, such as ethyl oleate. Proper fluidity can be maintained, for example, by the use of coating materials, such as lecithin, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersions, and by the use of surfactants.

These compositions may also contain adjuvants such as preservatives, wetting agents, emulsifying agents and dispersing agents. Prevention of the action of microorganisms may be ensured by the inclusion of various antibacterial and antifungal agents, for example, paraben, chlorobutanol, phenol sorbic acid, and the like. It may also be desirable to include isotonic agents, such as sugars, sodium chloride, and the like into the compositions. In addition, prolonged absorption of the injectable pharmaceutical form may be brought about by the inclusion of agents that delay absorption such as aluminum monostearate and gelatin.

In some cases, in order to prolong the effect of a drug, it is desirable to slow the absorption of the drug from subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. This may be accomplished by the use of a liquid suspension of crystalline or amorphous material having poor water solubility. The rate of absorption of the drug then depends upon its rate of dissolution, which, in turn, may depend upon crystal size and crystalline form. Alternatively, delayed absorption of a parenterally administered drug form is accomplished by dissolving or suspending the drug in an oil vehicle.

Injectable depot forms are made by forming microencapsulated matrices of the subject compounds in biodegradable polymers such as polylactide-polyglycolide. Depending on the ratio of drug to polymer, and the nature of the particular polymer employed, the rate of drug release can be controlled. Examples of other biodegradable polymers include poly(orthoesters) and poly(anhydrides). Depot injectable formulations are also prepared by entrapping the drug in liposomes or microemulsions that are compatible with body tissue.

For use in the methods of this disclosure, active compounds can be given per se or as a pharmaceutical composition containing, for example, 0.1 to 99.5% (more preferably, 0.5 to 90%) of active ingredient in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

Methods of introduction may also be provided by rechargeable or biodegradable devices. Various slow release polymeric devices have been developed and tested in vivo in recent years for the controlled delivery of drugs, including proteinacious biopharmaceuticals. A variety of biocompatible polymers (including hydrogels), including both biodegradable and non-degradable polymers, can be used to form an implant for the sustained release of a compound at a particular target site.

Actual dosage levels of the active ingredients in the pharmaceutical compositions may be varied so as to obtain an amount of the active ingredient that is effective to achieve the desired therapeutic response for a particular patient, composition, and mode of administration, without being toxic to the patient.

The selected dosage level will depend upon a variety of factors including the activity of the particular compound or combination of compounds employed, or the ester, salt or amide thereof, the route of administration, the time of administration, the rate of excretion of the particular compound(s) being employed, the duration of the treatment, other drugs, compounds and/or materials used in combination with the particular compound(s) employed, the age, sex, weight, condition, general health and prior medical history of the subject being treated, and like factors well known in the medical arts.

A physician or veterinarian having ordinary skill in the art can readily determine and prescribe the therapeutically effective amount of the pharmaceutical composition required. For example, the physician or veterinarian could start doses of the pharmaceutical composition or compound at levels lower than that required in order to achieve the desired therapeutic effect and gradually increase the dosage until the desired effect is achieved. By “therapeutically effective amount” is meant the concentration of a compound that is sufficient to elicit the desired therapeutic effect. It is generally understood that the effective amount of the compound will vary according to the weight, sex, age, and medical history of the subject. Other factors which influence the effective amount may include, but are not limited to, the severity of the subject's condition, the disorder being treated, the stability of the compound, and, if desired, another type of therapeutic agent being administered with the compound of the disclosure. A larger total dose can be delivered by multiple administrations of the agent. Methods to determine efficacy and dosage are known to those skilled in the art (Isselbacher et al. (1996) Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine 13 ed., 1814-1882, herein incorporated by reference).

In general, a suitable daily dose of an active compound used in the compositions and methods of the disclosure will be that amount of the compound that is the lowest dose effective to produce a therapeutic effect. Such an effective dose will generally depend upon the factors described above.

If desired, the effective daily dose of the active compound may be administered as one, two, three, four, five, six or more sub-doses administered separately at appropriate intervals throughout the day, optionally, in unit dosage forms. In certain embodiments of the present disclosure, the active compound may be administered two or three times daily. In certain embodiments, the active compound will be administered once daily.

In certain embodiments, compounds of the disclosure may be used alone or conjointly administered with another type of therapeutic agent. As used herein, the phrase “conjoint administration” refers to any form of administration of two or more different therapeutic compounds such that the second compound is administered while the previously administered therapeutic compound is still effective in the body (e.g., the two compounds are simultaneously effective in the subject, which may include synergistic effects of the two compounds). For example, the different therapeutic compounds can be administered either in the same formulation or in a separate formulation, either concomitantly or sequentially. In certain embodiments, the different therapeutic compounds can be administered within one hour, 12 hours, 24 hours, 36 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, or a week of one another. Thus, a subject who receives such treatment can benefit from a combined effect of different therapeutic compounds.

In certain embodiments, conjoint administration of compounds of the disclosure with one or more additional therapeutic agent(s) (e.g., one or more additional chemotherapeutic agent(s)) provides improved efficacy relative to each individual administration of the compound of the disclosure (e.g., compound of Formula (I) or (II) or (III)) or the one or more additional therapeutic agent(s). In certain such embodiments, the conjoint administration provides an additive effect, wherein an additive effect refers to the sum of each of the effects of individual administration of the compound of the disclosure and the one or more additional therapeutic agent(s).

This disclosure includes the use of pharmaceutically acceptable salts of compounds of the disclosure in the compositions and methods of the present disclosure. In certain embodiments, contemplated salts of the disclosure include, but are not limited to, alkyl, dialkyl, trialkyl or tetra-alkyl ammonium salts. In certain embodiments, contemplated salts of the disclosure include, but are not limited to, L-arginine, benenthamine, benzathine, betaine, calcium hydroxide, choline, deanol, diethanolamine, diethylamine, 2-(diethylamino)ethanol, ethanolamine, ethylenediamine, N-methylglucamine, hydrabamine, 1H-imidazole, lithium, L-lysine, magnesium, 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)morpholine, piperazine, potassium, 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyrrolidine, sodium, triethanolamine, tromethamine, and zinc salts. In certain embodiments, contemplated salts of the disclosure include, but are not limited to, Na, Ca, K, Mg, Zn or other metal salts.

The pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts can also exist as various solvates, such as with water, methanol, ethanol, dimethylformamide, and the like. Mixtures of such solvates can also be prepared. The source of such solvate can be from the solvent of crystallization, inherent in the solvent of preparation or crystallization, or adventitious to such solvent.

Pharmaceutically acceptable anionic salts include acetate, aspartate, benzenesulfonate, benzoate, besylate, bicarbonate, bitartrate, bromide, camsylate, carbonate, chloride, citrate, decanoate, edetate, esylate, fumarate, gluceptate, gluconate, glutamate, glycolate, hexanoate, hydroxynaphthoate, iodide, isethionate, lactate, lactobionate, malate, maleate, mandelate, mesylate, methylsulfate, mucate, napsylate, nitrate, octanoate, oleate, pamoate, pantothenate, phosphate, polygalacturonate, propionate, salicylate, stearate, acetate, succinate, sulfate, tartrate, teoclate, and tosylate.

Wetting agents, emulsifiers and lubricants, such as sodium lauryl sulfate and magnesium stearate, as well as coloring agents, release agents, coating agents, sweetening, flavoring and perfuming agents, preservatives and antioxidants can also be present in the compositions.

Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable antioxidants include: (1) water-soluble antioxidants, such as ascorbic acid, cysteine hydrochloride, sodium bisulfate, sodium metabisulfite, sodium sulfite and the like; (2) oil-soluble antioxidants, such as ascorbyl palmitate, butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), lecithin, propyl gallate, alpha-tocopherol, and the like; and (3) metal-chelating agents, such as citric acid, ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA), sorbitol, tartaric acid, phosphoric acid, and the like.

The disclosure now being generally described, it will be more readily understood by reference to the following examples which are included merely for purposes of illustration of certain aspects and embodiments of the present disclosure, and are not intended to limit the disclosure.

The gene encoding HER2-A775_G776insYVMA (“HER2-YVMA”) was synthesized at GeneRay, cloned into the retroviral construct pMSCV-puro (Biovector), and packaged into retroviral particles. The virus was used to infect Ba/F3 cells (RIKEN) at multiplicity of infection=1 or 10 for 1 day. Infected cells were rescued in media (RPMI-1640 with 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% streptomycin and penicillin) supplemented with mouse IL-3 (10 ng/mL) for 2 days, and stable cell lines were selected by IL-3 withdrawal and puromycin (0.8 μg/mL) for 7 days. Monoclones were selected by single-cell dilution in IL-3-free medium containing puromycin (0.8 μg/mL). Transformation of desired genes was confirmed by Sanger sequencing and western blot using the following antibody: HER2 (CST #2242).

Besides Ba/F3s, two commercially available cell lines were also used. NCI-H1781 is a HER2 exon20 insertion cell line bearing HER2-A775_G776insV-G776C. A431 bears amplification of the wild-type EGFR gene.

Cellular Phosphorylation Assay

Ba/F3 cells were plated at 50,000 cells/well (40 μL), or NCI-H1781 cells or A431 cells were plated at 12,500 cells/well (40 μL), in a 384-well plate for 1 day. Test compounds (40 nL) were then added in a 3-fold dilution series using the TECAN EVO200 liquid handler and incubated for 5 hours. Only for pEGFR analysis in A431, the cells were briefly stimulated with EGF (30 ng/mL) for 15 minutes. Media were removed using Apricot Designs. Phosphoproteins were analyzed using the phospho-EGFR Tyr1068 AlphaLISA kit (“pEGFR”; PerkinElmer #ALSU-PEGFR-B10K;) phospho-ERK Thr202/Tyr204 AlphaLISA kit (“pERK”; PerkinElmer #ALSU-PERK-A10K) or the phospho-ErbB2 Tyr1221/1222 AlphaLISA kit (“pHER2”; PerkinElmer #ALSU-PEB2-A10K;) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, cells were lysed with lysis buffer (10 μL) containing protease-inhibitor and phosphatase-inhibitor cocktails. The lysates were transferred into a new optical plate, incubated with the acceptor mix (5 μL) for 1.5-2 hours at room temperature in darkness, and then mixed with the donor mix (5 μL) overnight in darkness. Fluorescence was measured on a plate reader using the appropriate AlphaLISA settings. Half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC₅₀) was calculated from percent inhibition and inhibitor concentration using four-parameter logistic regression. Compound potency can be interpreted by binning IC₅₀values: bin A for high potency, IC₅₀<100 nM; bin B for medium potency, 100 nM≤IC₅₀<500 nM; bin C for low potency, 500 nM≤IC₅₀<1000 nM; and bind D for very low potency, IC₅₀≥1000 nM. Exemplary data is given in Table 11.

HER2 is phosphorylated when activated. Therefore, phospho-HER2 indicates HER2 activity in the cells. Compounds that potently inhibit the phosphorylation of the on-target cells (Ba/F3s and NCI-H1781) are also expected to inhibit/HER2 signaling in human cancers that express HER2, providing support for the potential clinical efficacy of such compounds. Similarly, compounds that do not potently inhibit the phosphorylation of the off-target A431 cell, which bears wild-type EGFR amplification, are expected to poorly inhibit wild-type EGFR signaling in humans and hence avoid the clinical toxicity arising from wild-type EGFR inhibition.

Cell Proliferation Assay Ba/F3 cells were plated at 1,000 cells/well (40 μL), or NCI-H1781 or A431 cells were plated at 2,000 cells/well (40 μL), in a 384-well plate for 1 day. Test compounds (40 nL) were then added in a 3-fold dilution series using the TECAN EVO200 liquid handler and incubated for 48 hours (“2 days”), 72 hours (“3 days”), or 48 hours followed by renewal of compound solutions and further incubation for 72 hours (“2 days/3 days”). The 72-hour assay was necessary for NCI-H1781 cells, which are slow-growing, and the resupply of fresh compounds on day 3 obviated the potential confounding effects arising from compound degradation in cell media over 72 hours. Plates were equilibrated at room temperature for 15 minutes followed by addition of 40 μL CellTiter-Glo reagent (Promega). Luminescence was measured on a plate reader. Half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC₅₀) was calculated from percent inhibition and inhibitor concentration using four-parameter logistic regression. A431 and NCI-H1781 showed a biphasic growth inhibition behavior with two inflexion points: the first is associated with on-target inhibition, whereas the second is associated with off-target toxicity. In these cases, the regression curve was drawn only for the first inflexion to accurately measure on-target growth inhibitory effect. Compound potency can be interpreted by binning IC₅₀values: bin A for high potency, IC₅₀<100 nM; bin B for medium potency, 100 nM≤IC₅₀<500 nM; bin C for low potency, 500 nM≤IC₅₀<1,000 nM; and bind D for very low potency, IC₅₀≥1,000 nM. Exemplary data is given in Table 12.

Ba/F3, NCI-H1781, and A431 proliferation is driven by the oncogenes in the same way that cancer cell proliferation in humans is driven by the expression of equivalent oncogenes. Hence, compounds that potently inhibit the proliferation of the on-target cells (Ba/F3s and NCI-H1781) are also expected to inhibit human cancers that express equivalent oncogenes, providing support for the potential clinical efficacy of such compounds. Similarly, compounds that do not potently inhibit the off-target A431 cell, which bears wild-type EGFR amplification, are expected to poorly inhibit wild-type EGFR in humans and hence avoid the clinical toxicity arising from wild-type EGFR inhibition.

Pharmacokinetics Assay

Rat pharmacokinetic studies: male Han Wistar rats are dosed with a test compound at 1 mg/kg by IV administration and/or 10 mg/kg by oral gavage in a suitable vehicle (for example, 20% HP-b-CD in DI water). Blood samples are collected from the jugular vein at multiple timepoints post dose. Approximately 0.2 mL of blood is collected at each time point and transferred into plastic micro centrifuge tubes containing EDTA-K2. The collection of tubes with blood samples and anti-coagulant are inverted several times for proper mixing and placed on wet ice prior to centrifugation. The blood samples are centrifuged at 4000 g for 5 min at 4 degrees Celsius to isolate the plasma. The plasma is stored at −75 degrees Celsius prior to analysis. Concentrations of a test compound in the plasma samples are analyzed using a LC-MS/MS method. WinNonlin (Phoenix™, version 8.3) or other similar software is used for pharmacokinetic calculations. The exemplified pharmacokinetic parameters that can be calculated from the plasma concentration versus time data are as follows:

- IV Bolus administration: T1/2, C0, AUClast, AUCinf, MRTlast, Cl, Vss, Number of Points for Regression.
- PO administration: F, T1/2, Cmax, Tmax, MRTlast, AUCinf, AUClast, Number of Points for Regression.

Mouse pharmacokinetic studies: female Balb/C mice are dosed with a test compound at 1 mg/kg IV and/or 10 mg/kg orally in a suitable vehicle (for example 20% HP-b-CD in DI water). Blood samples are collected from the dorsal metatarsal vein or heart puncture at multiple timepoints post dose. Approximately 0.03 mL of blood sample was collected at each time point and transferred into plastic micro centrifuge tubes containing Heparin-Na. Collection tubes with blood samples and anti-coagulant are inverted several times for proper mixing and placed on wet ice prior to centrifugation. Blood samples are centrifuged at 4000 g for 5 min at 4 degrees Celsius to obtain plasma. Plasma is stored at −75 degrees Celsius prior to analysis. Concentrations of the compound in the plasma samples are analyzed using a LC-MS/MS method. WinNonlin (Phoenix™, version 8.3) or other similar software was used for pharmacokinetic calculations.

Bidirectional Permeability in NIH-MDCKII-MDR1 Cells

MDCKII-MDR1 cells from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are seeded onto membranes in 96-well Transwell plates to form a confluent cell monolayer. Test and reference compounds are prepared in transport buffer (HBSS, HEPES, pH 7.4) at 1 μM and added to either the apical compartment (for A→B) or the basolateral compartment (for B→A). The plates are shaken and then incubated. Aliquots are taken from both the apical and basolateral sides and transferred to a new plate with quenching buffer. These plates are vortexed and centrifuged, and aliquots of the supernatant are mixed with water and analyzed by LC/MS/MS. All incubations are performed in duplicate. Monolayer integrity is confirmed with the marker Lucifer Yellow.

The apparent permeability coefficient (P_app), in units of centimeter per second, can be calculated for MDCK-MDR1 drug transport assays using the following equation:

Kp and Kpuu Measurements in Rat and Mouse

The target dose (e.g., 10 mg/kg) of the test compound is prepared in a suitable formulation (e.g., 20% HP-b-CD in DI water) and administered PO to male Wistar Han rats or BALB/c mice. After a pre-specified amount of time (e.g., 1 h) the animals are sacrificed, and brain and blood samples are collected. The concentrations of test compound in plasma, brain homogenate and CSF samples (for rat only) are analyzed using LC/MS/MS. Binding measurements in plasma and brain can be conducted using a Rapid Equilibrium Dialysis Device.

The unbound fraction in plasma and brain homogenate, unbound fraction in brain, and free concentration in plasma and brain of test article can be calculated as follows:

Alternatively, the unbound fraction in plasma and brain homogenate can be measured in separate in vitro experiments. For brain binding, brain tissue is obtained from exsanguinated rats or mice, weighed, and homogenized with buffer by brain weight (g) to water volume (mL) ratio 1:4. Brain homogenate and test compound is added to each vial of a new plastic plate or separate plastic tube and vortexed. An aliquot is removed and transferred to a 96-well plate to act as a control sample. The remaining sample is incubated in the CO2 incubator. After incubation, an aliquot of the spiked brain homogenate is transferred to the 96-well plate for analysis. Dialysis cells are loaded with brain homogenate sample and dialyzed against equal volume of dialysis buffer (PBS). After dialysis, aliquots from both buffer and brain homogenate chambers are added to separate tubes for analysis. All test compounds are tested in duplicate in the brain homogenate assay.

For plasma protein binding, a similar procedure is followed, using plasma from either rat or mouse. Plasma and test compound are added to each vial of a new plastic plate or separate plastic tube and vortexed. An aliquot is removed and transferred to a 96-well plate to act as a control sample. The remaining sample is incubated in the CO2 incubator. After incubation, an aliquot of the spiked plasma is transferred to the 96-well plate for analysis. Dialysis cells are loaded with plasma sample and dialyzed against equal volume of dialysis buffer (PBS). After dialysis, aliquots from both buffer and plasma chambers are added to separate tubes for analysis. All test compounds are tested in duplicate in the plasma protein binding assay.

Kinome Profiling

Test compounds are evaluated in a panel of 381 kinases using the PhosphoSens CSox-Sensor Platform (AssayQuant Technologies Inc). This assay platform uses physiological ATP concentrations (1 mM) and measures kinase activity using a fluorogenic substrates with an optimized kinase recognition motif. Briefly, the test compound is mixed with the kinase, the fluorogenic peptide substrate, and ATP in reaction buffer, and fluorescence was recorded every 2 minutes for a total of 1.5-2 hours. When uninhibited, the kinase phosphorylates the substrate and induces fluorescence signal over time, the rate of which can be measured using the initial slope of fluorescence versus time (also called the initial velocity). Inhibition of kinase activity represses initial velocity. Inhibitory activity is calculated as the ratio between the initial velocity of the kinase in the presence and in the absence of the inhibitor, and is expressed as percent inhibition. Data are processed using GraphPad Prism or GeneData Mechanistic Action software.

PDX Study

Female athymic Nude-Foxnlnu mice are implanted subcutaneously in the left flank with tumor fragments from model CTG-2543 (Champions Oncology), a NSCLC tumor model harboring HER2^YVMA. In the efficacy study, mice are randomized to 5 mice per group based on tumor volume, and are administered with vehicle or test compounds. Tumor volume and body weight are measured twice per week. After the final dose, plasma samples are collected for PK analysis.

In a separate PK/PD study, CTG-2543 tumors are subcutaneously implanted in mice and allowed to grow before the mice are randomized based on tumor volume and administered with vehicle or test compounds by oral gavage. Tumor and blood samples are collected at multiple timepoints post the final dose for PK and PD analysis. Compound concentration in the plasma is determined by LC-MS/MS. Pharmacodynamic measurements include western blot, IHC assays, and transcript biomarker analysis.

N87-Luc Intracranial Efficacy Study

NCI-N87 cells stably expressing a luciferase reporter are stereotactically implanted into the right forebrains of 6- to 8-week-old female Balb/c nude mice. Two weeks after implantation, mice are randomized based on the mean bioluminescence signal into groups of n=10 mice each and received treatment of either appropriate vehicle or different dose levels of test compounds orally. Bioluminescence and body weight are measured at regular intervals until study endpoint. At study endpoint, blood and brain samples will be collected for PK measurements.
