Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates to methods and related aspects for treating CTPS2-deficient cancers by administering CTPS1 inhibitors. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0003] Cancer can affect a variety of cell types and tissues, but its underlying cause is disruption of cell division control. This process is very complex and requires careful coordination of multiple pathways, many of which remain to be fully characterized. Cell division requires efficient replication of the cell's DNA and other components. For many years, interfering with the replication ability of cells by targeting nucleic acid synthesis has been a core approach to cancer treatment. Examples of therapies that act in this way are 6-thioguanine, 6-mercaptopurine, 5-fluorouracil, cytarabine, gemcitabine, and pemetrexed.

[0004] Cancer therapeutics can be utilized that target a wide range of specific targets. Small molecule targeted therapeutics are typically inhibitors that target mutations, overexpressed enzyme domains, or otherwise key proteins within cancer cells. Monoclonal antibody therapies are another strategy, where the therapeutic agent is an antibody that specifically binds to a protein on the surface of cancer cells.

[0005] All proliferating cells, including tumor cells, rely on a ready supply of purine and pyrimidine nucleotides in DNA and RNA synthesis. While salvage pathways may be sufficient for steady-state metabolism, DNA replication makes cell division dependent on de novo synthesis of nucleotides. A key bottleneck in the de novo pyrimidine synthesis pathway is cytidine triphosphate synthase (CTPS), which catalyzes the conversion of UTP to CTP (van Kuilenburg 2000). CTPS also exists in two subtypes in humans (CTPS1 and CTPS2; see Figure 1 ). These two isoforms are ubiquitously expressed in normal and malignant human cells (BioGPS and EMBL-EBI expression atlases). The distinct roles of CTPS1 and CTPS2 in cell proliferation have been demonstrated (Minet 2023), and human genetic studies have identified a non-redundant and essential role of CTPS1 in normal immune (B and T) cell proliferation (Martin 2014; Martin 2020).

[0006] Although the proliferation of cancer cells depends on CTPS activity, the exact roles of CTPS1 and CTPS2 in cancer are not fully understood at present. Before phase I / II clinical trials, several CTPS inhibitors that inhibit CTPS1 and CTPS2 have been developed for oncology indications, but they were discontinued due to toxicity and efficacy issues. Most of the inhibitors developed are nucleoside analog prodrugs (3-deazauridine (DAU), CPEC, carbocyclic cytidine), which are converted to active triphosphorylated metabolites by kinases involved in pyrimidine biosynthesis: uridine / cytidine kinase, nucleoside monophosphate kinase (NMP kinase), and nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDP kinase). Other inhibitors (azaserine, 6-diazo-5-oxo-L-norleucine (DON)) are reactive analogs of glutamine that irreversibly inhibit the glutaminase domain of CTPS. Importantly, the CTPS inhibitors developed to date are not selective for one isoform of CTPS over the other. Thus, the available CTPS inhibitors block all CTPS activity, thereby blocking the ability of all cells in the body to divide.

[0007] Cancer is a genomic disease. The DNA of cancer cells contains different types of alterations that support the biological alterations that define the cell biology of cancer. These DNA alterations include mutations at the base level and structural alterations at the gene and chromosome levels, such as deletions, amplifications, and gene fusions. Cancer cells contain extensive genomic disruptions; however, only a small fraction of these changes directly alter cell biology, and the rest constitute collateral genomic damage or bystander effects of the mutational processes that lead to genetic alterations. For example, the deletion of genetic material in cancer cells may lead to the deletion of a specific tumor suppressor gene, which increases the fitness of cancer cells (and thus contributes to the process of cancer development); this same deletion may also lead to the deletion of other genes in the same region that have no effect on cancer cells. In some such cases, the deletion of genes that have no effect on cancer cells may create a state in which cancer cells are severely dependent on a specific metabolic pathway or enzyme, a situation that can be referred to as metabolic collateral lethality. As an example, the deletion of CTPS2 from cancer cells has no direct effect on cell fitness ( Figure 2 ), but creates a critical dependence on the activity of CTPS1 to produce the building blocks required for DNA synthesis (and thus cell division). In humans, CTPS2 was found to be located on the X chromosome (ChrX(p22.2); transcript IDs ENST00000359276.9, NM_175859; location: hg38 chrX:16,587,999-16,712,669).

[0008] Cancer treatment still requires new methods that can exhibit high in vivo efficacy, reduce the dose required for in vivo action, improved safety / reduced side effects, etc. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0087] CTPS1 inhibitor

[0088] As used herein, a CTPS1 inhibitor is an active agent that directly inhibits the enzymatic activity of CTPS1 enzyme by interacting with the enzyme. The direct inhibition of CTPS1 enzyme can be quantified using any suitable assay method. However, it can also be appropriately carried out using the method described in Example 1.

[0089] For CTPS1 enzyme, the CTPS1 inhibitor can exhibit an IC 50 , such as 1 μM or lower, especially 100 nM or lower. Particular CTPS1 inhibitors of interest are those having an IC 50 for CTPS1 enzyme of 10 μM or lower, such as 1 μM or lower, especially 100 nM or lower, as determined using the assay method described in Example 1.

[0090] Ideally, the CTPS1 inhibitor is more selective for CTPS1 than for CTPS2 (i.e., based on IC 50Ratio of values). Suitably, the inhibitor shows a selectivity of at least 2-fold, such as at least 30-fold, especially at least 60-fold, particularly at least 1000-fold. Of particular interest are CTPS1 inhibitors that are more selective for CTPS1 than CTPS2 using the assay method described in Example 2, suitably at least 2-fold, such as at least 30-fold, especially at least 60-fold, and particularly at least 1000-fold. Desirably, the selectivity for human CTPS1 is greater than that for human CTPS2.

[0091] For a drug intended for human use, CTPS1 inhibition and the selectivity of CTPS1 over CTPS2 should be based on the human form of the enzyme.

[0092] Suitably, the CTPS1 inhibitor can be selected from the following compounds:

The term "non-naturally occurring variant isotopic form" also includes embodiments in which the proportion of uncommon isotopes is decreased relative to the naturally occurring proportion. Isotopic forms can include radioactive forms (i.e., they incorporate radioactive isotopes) and non-radioactive forms. Radioactive forms are typically isotope-enriched variant forms.

[1375] Therapeutic uses and applications

[1376] The present invention can be used to treat cancers lacking CTPS2. As used herein, CTPS2 deficiency refers to a severe defect in CTPS2 function, particularly a complete loss of CTPS2 function. The defect in CTPS2 function may be caused by genomic alterations and / or epigenetic alterations.

[1377] The defect in CTPS2 function may be caused by genomic alterations or changes, such as:

[1378] (i) The complete loss of the CTPS2 gene due to genomic deletion;

[1379] (ii) The partial loss of the CTPS2 gene due to genomic deletion;

[1380] (iii) The CTPS2 gene is disrupted by a structural DNA variant, such as an inversion, duplication, or translocation within the gene footprint; or

[1381] (iv) The CTPS2 gene mutates such that CTPS2 expression is significantly reduced or most appropriately completely lost.

[1382] The defect in CTPS2 function may be caused by epigenetic alterations or changes, such as alterations in CTPS2 gene expression, such as due to changes in regulatory elements, which are attributed to altered methylation and / or histone modification, such that CTPS2 expression is significantly reduced or most appropriately completely lost.

[1383] Suitably, the defect in CTPS2 function may be caused by a complete deletion of the CTPS2 gene due to genomic deletion (homozygous deletion in tumors produced by females or hemizygous deletion in tumors produced by males).

[1384] The presence of CTPS2 deficiency is typically determined by analyzing a sample from a subject. The sample used herein will be understood to be an appropriate sample suitable for the intended analytical method, i.e., a sample that allows determination of CTPS2 deficiency or other deficiencies. For example, the sample may be a biopsy containing cancer cells (such as a tumor biopsy), or it may be a sample containing circulating cancer cells, or it may be a sample containing cell-free cancer DNA. The sample can be obtained or provided by any suitable method known in the art.

[1385] Methods for determining CTPS2 deficiency include:

[1386] (i) Methods for detecting DNA alterations, including analyzing tumor-derived DNA obtained from tumor tissue, circulating tumor cells, cell-free DNA, or cell-free exosomes, and using appropriate techniques to detect genomic changes that may lead to severe defects in CTPS2 function, particularly complete loss of CTPS2 function, including whole-genome sequencing, whole-exome sequencing, targeted gene sequencing using capture-based enrichment, targeted gene sequencing using PCR-based enrichment, real-time quantitative PCR, droplet digital PCR, in situ hybridization, or fluorescence in situ hybridization;

[1387] (ii) Methods for detecting RNA alterations, including analyzing appropriate RNA samples, such as RNA samples obtained from tumor tissue, circulating tumor cells, or cell-free exosomes, using appropriate techniques for detecting CTPS2 RNA (e.g., RNA sequencing, gene expression arrays, real-time quantitative PCR, droplet digital PCR, or in situ hybridization);

[1388] (iii) Methods for detecting epigenetic alterations, including (a) analyzing tumor-derived DNA obtained from tumor tissue, circulating tumor cells, or cell-free DNA using appropriate techniques to detect epigenetic alterations that may lead to loss of CTPS2 expression, including DNA methylation analysis or characterization of histone modifications, or (b) analyzing appropriate RNA samples, such as those obtained from tumor tissue, circulating tumor cells, or cell-free exosomes, and analyzing them by RNA sequencing, gene expression arrays, real-time quantitative PCR, droplet digital PCR, or in situ hybridization; and / or

[1389] (iv) Methods for detecting protein alterations, including analyzing tumor tissue or circulating tumor cells using appropriate techniques for detecting CTPS2 protein (e.g., immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry, or mass cytometry).

[1390] It should be understood that multiple analytical techniques can be applied in combination.

[1391] Suitably, the steps for identifying a subject with a cancer having CTPS2 deficiency include: (i) applying an appropriate method for determining CTPS2 deficiency, such as a technique for detecting relevant alterations in DNA, RNA, or protein, (ii) analyzing the data generated by the method, and (iii) interpreting the data generated by the method to determine the likelihood of a significant deficiency in CTPS2 function, particularly complete loss of CTPS2 function.

[1392] For cancers with genomic alterations that may result in significant lack of CTPS2 function, particularly complete loss of CTPS2 function, detection can be performed using suitable DNA samples obtained from tissue biopsies, circulating tumor cells, or cell-free DNA. Suitable techniques for detecting genomic alterations that may result in severe defects in CTPS2 function include whole-genome sequencing, whole-exome sequencing, targeted gene sequencing using capture-based enrichment, targeted gene sequencing using PCR-based enrichment, real-time quantitative PCR, droplet digital PCR, in situ hybridization, or fluorescence in situ hybridization. Additionally, genomic alterations that may result in severe defects in CTPS2 function can be detected in suitable RNA samples obtained from tissue biopsies, circulating tumor cells, or cell-free exosomes and analyzed by RNA sequencing, gene expression arrays, real-time quantitative PCR, droplet digital PCR, or in situ hybridization. Furthermore, genomic alterations that may result in severe defects in CTPS2 function can be detected in suitable tumor cell samples obtained from tissue biopsies or circulating tumor cells and analyzed by immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry, or mass cytometry.

[1393] For cancers with epigenetic changes that may result in severe lack of CTPS2, detection will require suitable DNA samples obtained from tissue biopsies, circulating tumor cells, or cell-free DNA. Suitable techniques for detecting epigenetic changes that may result in severe lack of CTPS2 include DNA methylation analysis or histone modification profiling. Additionally, epigenetic changes that may result in severe lack of CTPS2 function can be detected in suitable RNA samples obtained from tissue biopsies, circulating tumor cells, or cell-free exosomes and analyzed by RNA sequencing, gene expression arrays, real-time quantitative PCR, droplet digital PCR, or in situ hybridization. Furthermore, epigenetic changes that may result in severe lack of CTPS2 function can be detected in suitable RNA samples obtained from tissue biopsies, circulating tumor cells, or cell-free exosomes and analyzed by RNA sequencing, gene expression arrays, real-time quantitative PCR, droplet digital PCR, or in situ hybridization. Additionally, epigenetic changes that may result in severe lack of CTPS2 function can be detected in suitable tumor cell samples obtained from tissue biopsies or circulating tumor cells and analyzed by immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry, or mass cytometry.

[1394] Susceptibility to CTPS1 treatment

[1395] The present invention can be used to determine whether cancer cells or cancer is predisposed to treatment with a CTPS1 inhibitor. In the context of this disclosure, a 'predisposed' cancer or cancer cell is one that has been identified as having an increased probability of benefiting from treatment according to the present invention relative to cancers or cancer cells that are known not to be predisposed to treatment with a CTPS1 inhibitor (e.g., showing high in vivo efficacy, reduced dose required for in vivo action, and / or improved safety / reduced side effects).

[1396] It is expected that predisposed cancers or cancer cells lack CTPS2 (i.e., are likely to lack CTPS2), and appropriately, predisposed cancers or cancer cells lack CTPS2.

[1397] Those cancers or cancer cells that have been identified as having an increased probability of CTPS2 deficiency or those cancers and cells that have been identified as being expected to have CTPS2 deficiency can be, for example: (i) cancers or cancer cells of a type identified as having a more prevalent CTPS2 deletion than more common cancers or (ii) cancers or cancer cells identified as having CTPS2 deficiency or (iii) cancers or cancer cells identified as being more likely to have a defective CTPS2 using a method whose certainty may be uncertain.

[1398] Predisposed cancers or cancer cells can be identified by analyzing DNA and detecting genomic alterations in CTPS2 that may lead to a significant loss of CTPS2 activity.

[1399] It is expected that cancers or cancer cells may have genomic alterations in CTPS2 that may lead to a significant loss of CTPS2 activity, making them susceptible to treatment with a CTPS1 inhibitor.

[1400] Predisposed cancers or cancer cells can be identified by analyzing RNA and detecting a decrease in CTPS2 expression that may lead to a significant loss of CTPS2 activity.

[1401] Predisposed cancers or cancer cells can be identified by analyzing proteins and detecting a decrease in CTPS2 expression that may lead to a significant loss of CTPS2 activity.

[1402] It is expected that cancers or cancer cells may have a decreased CTPS2 expression that may lead to a significant loss of CTPS2 activity, making them susceptible to treatment with a CTPS1 inhibitor.

[1403] Predisposed cancers or cancer cells can be identified by analyzing epigenetic patterns and detecting alterations in DNA methylation or histone modification that may lead to a significant loss of CTPS2 activity.

[1404] It is expected that the DNA of cancers or cancer cells may have alterations in DNA methylation or histone modification that may lead to a significant loss of CTPS2 activity, making them susceptible to treatment with a CTPS1 inhibitor.

[1405] Susceptible cancers or cancer cells can be identified by culturing cancer cells (such as human cancer cells) in the presence of a selective CTPS1 inhibitor, wherein the growth pattern of the cancer cells shows sensitivity to CTPS1 inhibition. The sensitivity to CTPS1 inhibition can be attributed to a significant loss of CTPS2 activity. The selectivity is suitably at least 2-fold, such as at least 30-fold, especially at least 60-fold, particularly at least 1000-fold, especially for human CTPS1 over human CTPS2.

[1406] Cancers or cancer cells may have a growth pattern of cancer cells, which indicates sensitivity to CTPS1 inhibition, presumably attributed to a significant loss of CTPS2 activity.

[1407] A CTPS1 inhibitor can be used to administer to a subject identified as having a cancer expected to be susceptible to treatment with a CTPS1 inhibitor (e.g., the cancer is CTPS2-deficient). A CTPS1 inhibitor can be used to administer to a subject in which a cancer cell sample has shown susceptibility to treatment with a CTPS1 inhibitor (e.g., the cancer is CTPS2-deficient).

[1408] Suitably, the cancer is selected from ovarian cancer, esophageal cancer, bladder cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, gastric cancer, sarcoma, head and neck cancer, pancreatic adenocarcinoma, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, biliary tract cancer, melanoma, endometrial cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, cervical cancer, bone cancer, central nervous system cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, colorectal cancer, and kidney cancer. Suitably, the cancer is a cancer for which no other suitable available therapy exists.

[1409] Suitably, the cancer is selected from ovarian cancer, esophageal cancer, bladder cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, and gastric cancer.

[1410] Suitably, the cancer is ovarian cancer, such as serous ovarian cancer.

[1411] The cancer can be lung cancer, such as non-small cell lung cancer.

[1412] The cancer can be gastroesophageal cancer. The cancer can be esophageal cancer, or, the cancer can be gastric cancer.

[1413] The cancer can be head and neck cancer.

[1414] The cancer can be bladder cancer.

[1415] The cancer can be sarcoma.

[1416] In one embodiment, the cancer is a blood cancer. In one embodiment, the cancer is a non-blood cancer. Suitably, the cancer is not T-cell leukemia, such as T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

[1417] Suitably, the cancer or cancer cells are from a cancer type in which at least 10% of the cells lack CTPS2, such as at least 15% of the cells lack CTPS2, particularly at least 18% of the cells lack CTPS2. The defect in CTPS2 function can be attributed to homozygous deletion in females or hemizygous deletion in males.

[1418] Suitably, the cancer or cancer cells are from a cancer type in which at least 10% of the cells lack CTPS2, such as at least 15% of the cells lack CTPS2, particularly at least 20% of the cells lack CTPS2, especially at least 40% of the cells lack CTPS2. The defect in CTPS2 function can be determined by immunohistochemistry, such as the absence of CTPS2 staining.

[1419] Administration

[1420] The present invention is typically used in mammalian subjects, particularly human subjects. A CTPS1 inhibitor is typically administered to a subject in need thereof, particularly a mammalian subject in need thereof, particularly a human subject in need thereof. The human subject can be an adult, such as 18 to 65 years old. Alternatively, the human subject can be 66 years old or older. Alternatively, the human subject can be less than 18 years old, such as 4 to 17 years old. The human subject can be male. Alternatively, the human subject can be female.

[1421] The CTPS2 gene is located on the human X chromosome and is not imprinted in human females. Therefore, compared with human male subjects (i.e., subjects with XY chromosomes), the CTPS2 expression level is expected to be higher in human female subjects because CTPS2 is expressed on each X chromosome in human female subjects. In human female subjects, CTPS2 deficiency may be caused by genomic alterations and / or epigenetic alterations in one or both XX chromosomes, suitably both XX chromosomes.

[1422] Suitably, when the human subject is male, a defect in CTPS2 function can be caused by: (i) complete loss of the CTPS2 gene due to genomic deletion; (ii) partial loss of the CTPS2 gene due to genomic deletion; (iii) disruption of the CTPS2 gene by a structural DNA variant, such as an inversion, duplication, or translocation within the gene footprint; (iv) mutation of the CTPS2 gene such that CTPS2 expression is significantly reduced or completely lost; or (v) alteration of CTPS2 gene expression, such as due to alteration of regulatory elements resulting from altered methylation and / or histone modification, such that CTPS2 expression is significantly reduced or completely lost, particularly complete loss of the CTPS2 gene due to genomic deletion. In particular, when the human subject is male, a defect in CTPS2 function can be caused by complete deletion of the CTPS2 gene due to genomic deletion.

[1423] Suitably, when the human subject is female (i.e., a subject with two X chromosomes), a defect in CTPS2 function can be caused by complete deletion of the CTPS2 gene on the first X chromosome due to genomic deletion, and (i) complete deletion of the CTPS2 gene on the second X chromosome due to genomic deletion; (ii) partial deletion of the CTPS2 gene on the second X chromosome due to genomic deletion; (iii) disruption of the CTPS2 gene on the second X chromosome by a structural DNA variant that falls within the gene footprint, such as an inversion, duplication, or translocation; (iv) mutation of the CTPS2 gene on the second X chromosome such that CTPS2 expression is significantly reduced or completely lost; or (v) alteration of CTPS2 gene expression on the second X chromosome, such as due to alteration of regulatory elements resulting from altered methylation and / or histone modification, such that CTPS2 expression is significantly reduced or completely lost.

[1424] Suitably, when the human subject is female, a defect in CTPS2 function can be caused by complete deletion of the CTPS2 gene on the first X chromosome due to genomic deletion, and complete deletion of the CTPS2 gene on the second X chromosome due to complete deletion.

[1425] Administration of a CTPS1 inhibitor

[1426] The CTPS1 inhibitor can be administered by any suitable route, which can depend on the properties of the particular active agent. Exemplary routes include oral, parenteral, buccal, sublingual, nasal, or rectal administration. Conveniently, the CTPS1 inhibitor is administered orally.

[1427] The CTPS1 inhibitor can be provided in the form of a pharmaceutical composition comprising the CTPS1 inhibitor and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient.

[1428] If delivered orally, the CTPS1 inhibitor can be suitably delivered in the form of a solid pharmaceutical composition (such as tablets, capsules or lozenges) or a liquid pharmaceutical composition (such as suspensions, emulsions or solutions).

[1429] Liquid formulations generally consist of a suspension or solution of the CTPS1 inhibitor in a suitable liquid carrier, which is, for example, an aqueous solvent such as water, ethanol or glycerol, or a non-aqueous solvent such as polyethylene glycol or an oil. The formulation may also contain suspending agents, preservatives, flavoring agents and / or coloring agents.

[1430] Tablet formulations can be prepared using any suitable pharmaceutical carriers commonly used for preparing solid formulations, such as magnesium stearate, starch, lactose, sucrose and cellulose.

[1431] Suitably, the pharmaceutical composition is in unit dosage form, such as tablets, capsules or ampoules. Suitably, the unit dosage form is for oral delivery.

[1432] The pharmaceutical composition may, for example, contain 0.1%-99.99% by weight, such as 10%-60% by weight, of the active substance, depending on the method of administration. The pharmaceutical composition may contain 0.01%-99% by weight, such as 40%-90% by weight, of the carrier, depending on the method of administration. The pharmaceutical composition may contain 0.05 mg - 2000 mg of the active substance, such as 1.0 mg - 500 mg, depending on the method of administration. The pharmaceutical composition may contain 50 mg - 1000 mg of the carrier, such as 100 mg - 400 mg, depending on the method of administration.

[1433] The dosage of the compound used will vary in the usual way depending on the severity of the cancer, the weight of the patient and other similar factors. However, as a general guideline, a suitable unit dose can be 0.05 mg - 1000 mg, more suitably 1.0 mg - 500 mg, and such unit doses can be administered more than once a day, such as twice or three times a day. Such therapy can continue for weeks, months or longer. Multiple unit doses can be taken together, such as multiple tablets.

[1434] Suitably, the CTPS1 inhibitor is administered orally, for example in the form of a solid pharmaceutical composition by oral administration.

[1435] The dose administered to a subject is typically a safe and effective dose, i.e., an amount that provides an acceptable balance of desired benefits and undesired side effects. "Safe and effective dose" is intended to include the amount of a compound that effectively achieves the desired effect in treating a disease state. The desired effect typically has clinical significance and / or is measurable, such as in the case of (a) inhibiting a disease state, i.e., slowing or preventing its progression and / or (b) alleviating a disease state, i.e., causing regression of the disease state or reduction of related symptoms. A safe and effective amount is an amount sufficient to achieve the desired effect when a CTPS1 inhibitor is administered.

[1436] To avoid doubt, the "safe and effective amount" as described herein can be achieved by any suitable dosing regimen. Thus, for example, the administration of a safe and effective amount of a compound as referred to herein, such as by a particular route of administration including achieving a safe and effective amount by a single dose or multiple doses, as administered by the specified route of administration. For example, oral administration of a safe and effective amount includes oral administration of a single dose and oral administration of any number of doses, provided that a safe and effective amount is thereby achieved by oral administration.

[1437] Administration of a CTPS1 inhibitor is typically once or twice daily. The administration can be continuous, e.g., at least once daily for multiple cycles, or can be intermittent, e.g., once daily for one week, followed by one week without administration, followed by at least once daily for another week.

[1438] Combination with additional active agents

[1439] Treatment with a CTPS1 inhibitor can be combined with one or more other pharmaceutically acceptable active ingredients, which can be selected from: antimitotic agents such as vinblastine, paclitaxel, and docetaxel; alkylating and DNA cross-linking agents such as cisplatin, carboplatin, dacarbazine, and cyclophosphamide; antimetabolites such as 5-fluorouracil, cytarabine, and hydroxyurea; intercalating agents such as doxorubicin and bleomycin; topoisomerase inhibitors such as etoposide, topotecan, and irinotecan; thymidylate synthase inhibitors such as raltitrexed; PI3 kinase inhibitors such as idelalisib; mTOR inhibitors such as everolimus and temsirolimus; proteasome inhibitors such as bortezomib; histone deacetylase inhibitors such as panobinostat or vorinostat; hedgehog pathway blockers such as vismodegib; IAP inhibitors such as LCL161; VEGF inhibitors such as bevacizumab or pan-kinase inhibitors such as sorafenib and sunitinib.

[1440] The CTPS1 inhibitor and an additional pharmaceutically acceptable active ingredient can each be administered in any combination of separate, sequential, or simultaneous administration. If administered simultaneously, the CTPS1 inhibitor can, for example, (a) be formulated separately from the other pharmaceutically acceptable active ingredient; or (b) be formulated together with another pharmaceutically acceptable active ingredient.

[1441] The other pharmaceutically acceptable active ingredients can be selected from tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as axitinib, dasatinib, erlotinib, imatinib, nilotinib, pazopanib, and sunitinib. Alternatively, the other pharmaceutically acceptable active ingredients can be selected from azacitidine, decitabine, or cytarabine.

[1442] The other pharmaceutically acceptable active ingredients also include anti-cancer antibodies such as those selected from anti-CD20 antibodies (such as atezolizumab, ofatumumab, tositumomab, or rituximab) or other antibodies such as olatumumab, daratumumab, tucotuzumab, denosumab, trastuzumab, enfortumab, pertuzumab, brentuximab vedotin, pembrolizumab, catumaxomab, bevacizumab, cetuximab, trastuzumab, and gemtuzumab ozogamicin.

[1443] The CTPS1 inhibitor can also be administered in combination with radiotherapy, surgery, thermotherapy, and / or cryotherapy.

[1444] In some embodiments, the subject receives chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, thermotherapy, and / or cryotherapy prior to the administration of CTPS1.

[1445] In some embodiments, the subject receives chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, thermotherapy, and / or cryotherapy simultaneously with the administration of CTPS1.

[1446] In some embodiments, the subject receives chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, thermotherapy, and / or cryotherapy after the administration of CTPS1.

[1447] The present invention is further illustrated by the following non-limiting examples. Examples

[1448] Example 1: Inhibition of Human CTPS1 Enzyme

[1449] The enzyme inhibitory activity of the compound against CTPS1 can be determined using the ADP-Glo TM Max assay (Promega, UK).

[1450] The assay of human CTPS1 was performed in 1x assay buffer containing 50 mM Tris, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.01% Tween-20, pH 8.0. Finally, L-cysteine was added to the 1x assay buffer immediately before use to a final concentration of 2 mM. All reagents were from Sigma-Aldrich unless otherwise stated. Human full-length active C-terminal FLAG-His8-tag CTPS1 (UniProtKB-P17812, CTPS[1-591]-GGDYKDDDDKGGHHHHHHHH, SEQ ID NO: 1) was obtained from Proteros biostructures GmbH.

[1451] Assay method

[1452] Prepare 3x human CTPS1 protein in 1x assay buffer to the final working protein concentration required for the reaction. At 25 °C, mix 2 μL volume of 3x human CTPS1 protein per well with 2 μL of 3x test compound per well (compound prepared in 1x assay buffer, reaching the appropriate final 3x compound concentration according to the concentration-response curve designed for the test compound) for 10 minutes. Then, start the enzyme reaction by adding 2 μL volume of pre-mixed substrate mixture per well (UltraPure ATP (0.31 mM), GTP (0.034 mM), UTP (0.48 mM), and L-glutamine (0.186 mM) from the ADP-Glo TM Max kit), and incubate this mixture for an appropriate time period within the determined linear reaction phase under sealed plate conditions at 25 °C with constant stirring at 500 revolutions per minute (rpm). Before detecting the signal in a microplate reader ( MultilabelReader, Perkin Elmer), add ADP-Glo TM Max reagent for 60 minutes (6 μL / well), and then add ADP-Glo TM Max developer reagent for 60 minutes (12 μL / well). After each reagent addition during the assay, centrifuge the assay plate at 500 rpm for 30 seconds in pulses.

[1453] In all cases, the enzyme converts ATP to ADP, and ADP-Glo TM Max reagent then depletes any remaining endogenous ATP in the reaction system. ADP-Glo TMThe Max assay reagent converts ADP produced by the enzyme back to ATP and uses ATP as a substrate with luciferin for luciferase to generate light that produces a detectable luminescence. The measured luminescence signal is proportional to the amount of ADP produced by the enzyme reaction, and a decrease in this signal upon compound treatment indicates enzyme inhibition. The percentage of inhibition produced by each concentration of the compound is calculated using the following equation:

[1454]

[1455] The percentage of inhibition is then plotted against the compound concentration, and the 50% inhibitory concentration (IC 50 ) is determined from the resulting concentration-response curve.

[1456] Example 2: RapidFire / MS-based CTPS1 Enzyme Selectivity Assay

[1457] Evaluation of the selectivity of human CTPS1 and CTPS2 by RapidFire / MS analysis.

[1458] The enzyme inhibitory activity of compounds against each target isoform of interest was determined using an optimized RapidFire high-throughput mass spectrometry (RF / MS) assay format. The RF / MS assays for human CTPS1 and CTPS2 were performed in an assay buffer consisting of 50 mM HEPES (Merck), 20 mM MgCl2, 5 mM KCl, 1 mM DTT, 0.01% Tween-20, pH 8.0. Human full-length active C-terminal FLAG-His-tagged CTPS1 (UniProtKB-P17812, CTPS[1-591]-GGDYKDDDDKGGHHHHHHHH, SEQ ID NO: 1) was obtained from Proteros biostructures GmbH. Human full-length active C-terminal FLAG-His-Avi-tagged CTPS2 (UniProtKB-Q9NRF8, CTPS2[1-586]-DYKDDDDKHHHHHHGLNDIFEAQKIEWHE, SEQ ID NO: 2) was obtained from Harker Bio.

[1459] Assay Method

[1460] Prepare human CTPS(1 or 2) protein in 1x assay buffer until the final working protein concentration required for the reaction. Mix 2 μL volume of 2x CTPS(1 or 2) protein with 40 nL of the compound per well using acoustic (ECHO) delivery and incubate at 25 °C for 10 minutes. Subsequently, initiate each isotype enzyme reaction by adding 2 μL of 2x substrate mixture per well in the assay buffer. For hCTPS1: ATP(0.3 mM), UTP(0.2 mM), GTP(0.07 mM) and L-glutamine(0.1 mM). For hCTPS2: ATP(0.1 mM), UTP(0.04 mM), GTP(0.03 mM) and L-glutamine(0.1 mM). Incubate each mixture with each isotype for an appropriate time period at 25 °C within the determined linear phase of the reaction. Add 60 μL volume of the termination solution (1% formic acid with 0.5 μM 13 C9- 15 N3-CTP) contained in H2O, immediately heat-seal the plate and centrifuge at 4,000 rpm for 10 minutes. After centrifugation, load the plate onto an Agilent RapidFire microfluidic solid-phase extraction system coupled to an API 4000 triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (RF / MS) for analysis.

[1461] In all cases, the enzyme converts UTP to CTP. A highly specific and sensitive multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) MS method can be optimized for detecting the enzyme reaction product CTP and the stable isotope-labeled product standard 13 C9- 15 N3-CTP. Calculate the readings of the data analysis as the ratio of the peak area of the product CTP to the internal standard 13 C9- 15 N3-CTP. For data reporting, the following equation was used:

[1462]

[1463] (R = ratio / readings, P = product signal area, IS = internal standard signal area)

[1464] For each screening plate, use the average of the negative (DMSO) and positive control values to calculate the corresponding assay window (S / B) and Z’ value. Calculate the percentage of inhibition using the median of the corresponding control values according to the following equation:

[1465]

[1466] (I = inhibition rate, R neg = median of the negative control reading values, R pos = median of the positive control reading values, R 样品= Sample reading value)

[1467] Then, a graph of the percentage of inhibition versus the compound concentration is plotted, and the 50% inhibitory concentration (IC 50 ) is determined from the resulting concentration - response curve.

[1468] Subsequently, the fold selectivity between CTPS1 and CTPS2 is calculated according to the following equation:

[1469]

[1470] Example 3: Cells require CTPS enzyme activity to proliferate

[1471] In vitro cell proliferation assays have been used to establish the important role of CTP synthase activity and to evaluate the differential activities of CTPS1 and CTPS2 isoforms.

[1472] Cells engineered to not express CTPS isoforms (i.e., lacking CTPS1 and CTPS2) die rapidly by apoptosis (Martin 2014, Martin 2020, Minet 2022).

[1473] Human embryonic kidney (HEK) cells lacking CTPS1 or CTPS2 were generated using CRISPR technology, and the lack of expression of the relevant proteins was confirmed by Western blotting (Minet 2022). Cells were cultured at 37 °C and 5% CO2; viable cells were counted using CellTiter Glo2.0 reagent (Promega). HEK cells expressing only CTPS2 proliferated more slowly than cells expressing only CTPS1, indicating that the enzyme activity of the CTPS1 isoform is higher (Minet 2022). This is consistent with recent work and also shows that the CTPS1 isoform has higher enzyme activity than CTPS2 (Lynch 2021).

[1474] In summary, these findings indicate that CTP synthase activity is a requirement for cell survival and that the enzyme activity of the CTPS1 isoform is higher than that of CTPS2.

[1475] Example 4: CTPS1 is involved in cancer cell proliferation

[1476] The pathways involved in providing key building blocks for nucleic acid replication are the purine and pyrimidine synthesis pathways, and upregulation of pyrimidine biosynthesis has been observed in tumors and tumor cells. CTPS activity is upregulated in a series of tumor types of hematological and non - hematological origin; however, heterogeneity has been observed in patients. A correlation has been established between high enzyme levels and resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs.

[1477] In the analysis of public data, the present inventors found that CTPS1 is essential for the proliferation of human cancer cells derived from a wide range of blood and solid tumor types, while CTPS2 is consistently overabundant. This analysis used data from the Achilles project, in which each of 324 human cancer cell lines had each gene in the human genome independently deleted using CRISPR technology, and the effect of each gene deletion was evaluated using an in vitro proliferation assay (Behan 2019). This dataset was subsequently expanded to include data from 1,032 human cancer cell lines (Cancer Dependency Map: p.org / ). The effects of deletions of different genes in the pyrimidine synthesis pathway were evaluated (see Figure 2 ). Deletion of CTPS2 had no effect on cancer cell proliferation. Deletion of genes in the salvage pathway (CDA, UCK1, UCK2, or CMPK2) had little effect on cell proliferation. Deletion of CMPK1 had a significant effect on cell proliferation, consistent with CMPK1 being an essential gene. Deletion of CTPS1, UMPS, DHODH, or CAD inhibited cancer cell proliferation, consistent with the dependence of cancer cells on these gene products; inhibition of CTPS1 caused the greatest damage to cancer cell proliferation. These findings indicate that most cancer cells rely on CTPS1 for cell proliferation, which can be attributed to its enhanced enzyme activity, and do not require CTPS2.

[1478] Example 5: Deletion of CTPS2 in a small group of cancers

[1479] The above studies indicate that CTP synthase activity plays a crucial role, and the lack of CTP synthase leads to cell death due to apoptosis. The studies also indicate that many cancer cells rely on the activity of CTPS1, which is the more active of the two CTPS isoforms, and cancer cells that are less sensitive to deletion or inhibition of CTPS1 can utilize CTPS2 activity to survive and proliferate. Consistent with this concept, in certain physiological situations, the expression of CTPS2 can increase (Martin 2014), further increasing the likelihood that increased CTPS2 expression may be associated with acquired resistance to CTPS1 inhibitor therapy. Thus, cancer cells lacking CTPS2 expression due to genetic deletion of the CTPS2 gene may be highly sensitive to CTPS1 inhibition. It can also be noted from the above studies that the genetic deletion of CTPS2 itself is not harmful to cancer cells due to the continued availability of CTPS1 enzyme activity.

[1480] Loss of genetic material due to genomic deletions is a common phenomenon in cancer and may confer a selective advantage due to the loss of tumor suppressor genes. It has also been recognized that such genomic deletions can lead to bystander deletions of genes that do not confer a selective advantage to cancer cells; however, this collateral damage may expose therapeutic vulnerabilities in cancer cells (Achreja 2022).

[1481] In an analysis of publicly available data (ICGC 2020), it was found that CTPS2 was deleted in a small subset of cancer samples, with the highest incidence in ovarian, esophageal, and bladder cancers (see Figure 3 ). These findings identify a mechanism that can identify cancer patients predicted to be highly sensitive to CTPS1 inhibitor therapy.

[1482] Example 6: CTPS2 expression level predicts cellular response to CTPS2 deletion

[1483] In an analysis of publicly available data, the inventors found that CTPS2 expression level was correlated with the sensitivity of CRISPR knockout to CTPS1 deletion. In this analysis, which combined data from 573 human cancer cell lines from the Achilles project and the Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia, lower CTPS2 expression (measured by RNA abundance) was correlated with increased sensitivity of CRISPR to CTPS1 deletion ( Figure 4 , Pearson correlation r = 0.23, P-value = 4.9x10-8). No correlation was found between CTPS1 expression and the sensitivity of CRISPR to CTPS1 deletion (P-value = 0.075).

[1484] It was also found that CTPS2 expression level was correlated with the IC50 value of CTPS-IA. Human cancer cell lines were cultured in triplicate at 37 °C and 5% CO2 in the presence of different concentrations of CTPS-IA or in the presence of vehicle alone, and viable cells were counted after 72 hours using CellTiter-Glo 2.0 reagent (Promega) or an equivalent reagent. The half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC 50)。The CTPS1 and CTPS2 expression levels measured by RNA abundance were generated by RNA sequencing or retrieved from the publicly available Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia. In a small panel of 19 human cancer cell lines derived from blood cancers, lower CTPS2 expression was associated with increased sensitivity to CTPS-IA (Pearson correlation r = 0.50, P-value = 0.0007). In 60 human cancer cell lines encompassing common cancer types, lower CTPS2 expression was correlated with increased sensitivity to CTPS-IA (Pearson correlation r = 0.24, P-value = <0.0001). In a small panel of 103 human cancer cell lines encompassing common cancer types, lower CTPS2 expression was associated with increased sensitivity to CTPS-IA (Pearson correlation r = 0.24, P-value = <0.0001). In any of these three experiments, the CTPS1 expression level was not associated with sensitivity to CTPS-IA (P-values > 0.05 in all cases).

[1485] Collectively, these data indicate that the expression level of CTPS2, rather than CPTS1, is associated with sensitivity to CRISPR or pharmacological inhibition resulting in CTPS1 deletion or inhibition, respectively. Cancer cell lines with low CTPS2 expression exhibit enhanced sensitivity to CTPS1 deletion or inhibition.

[1486] Example 7: Absence of CTPS2 protein in a small panel of human cancers

[1487] CTPS2 protein expression in primary human cancer samples was analyzed by immunohistochemistry. A CTPS2 monoclonal antibody was validated using CTPS1 and CTPS2 knockout cell lines and normal human tissues. After demonstrating selective staining of CTPS2 in these experiments, the antibody was used to examine tissue microarrays of primary human cancer samples. CTPS2-negative samples were determined based on the absence of CTPS2 staining (non-specific staining was detected using an isotype control antibody).

[1488] Analysis of samples from 117 patients diagnosed with high-grade serous ovarian cancer identified a tumor prevalence of 24% with absent CTPS2 protein expression as shown by immunohistochemistry. Analysis of samples from 80 patients diagnosed with gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma identified a tumor prevalence of 18% with absent CTPS2 protein expression as shown by immunohistochemistry. For both of these cancer types, the prevalence of CTPS2 deletion in genomic studies was closely correlated with the prevalence of CTPS2 deletion assessed by immunohistochemistry ( Figure 5 ).

[1489] Analysis of samples from 208 patients diagnosed with lung cancer identified a prevalence of 65% of tumors showing loss of CTPS2 protein expression by immunohistochemistry. Analysis of samples from 208 patients diagnosed with bladder cancer identified a prevalence of 37% of tumors showing loss of CTPS2 protein expression by immunohistochemistry. Analysis of samples from 208 patients diagnosed with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma identified a prevalence of 66% of tumors showing loss of CTPS2 protein expression by immunohistochemistry. For these three cancer types, although both immunohistochemistry and genomic studies confirmed that a significant proportion of cancers lacked CTPS2, the prevalence of CTPS2 loss as assessed by immunohistochemistry was higher than the incidence of CTPS2 loss observed in genomic studies( Figure 5 ). Possible explanations for this difference include partial gene deletion of CTPS2 that was not detected by genomic studies but resulted in loss of protein expression; differences in cancer stage in the groups evaluated by genomics and immunohistochemistry (e.g., the group of samples undergoing whole-genome sequencing is typically biased towards patients with early-stage disease who are undergoing surgical resection because there is usually sufficient sequencing material available); or loss of protein expression due to epigenetic regulation such as methylation.

[1490] Example 8: Further characterization of reduced prevalence or absence of CTPS2 expression in target cancers

[1491] Further characterization of reduced prevalence or absence of CTPS2 expression can be performed in target cancers such as ovarian cancer by analyzing tissue samples from tumors of multiple patients, e.g., using tumor microarrays, using an appropriately qualified method for detecting CTPS2 expression, e.g., immunohistochemical assays.

[1492] Further characterization of the cellular consequences of CTPS2 loss of expression can be examined by generating isogenic human cancer cell line pairs in which CTPS2 is expressed and in which CTPS2 expression is eliminated in cell subclones, e.g., by disrupting the CTPS2 gene using CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) technology, and then comparing key cellular characteristics between isogenic cells with and without CTPS2 expression (including proliferation and apoptosis in the presence or absence of a CTPS2 inhibitor).

[1493] Further information can be obtained by evaluating isogenic human cancer cell line pairs with and without CTPS2 expression in an in vivo transplantation model, e.g., transplanted into immunocompromised mice, e.g., by measuring and comparing the growth kinetics of isogenic human cancer cell lines with and without CTPS2 expression to determine the effect of treatment with a CTPS1 inhibitor when transplanted mice are treated with a CTPS1 inhibitor.

[1494] By comparing primary patient-derived tumor samples that express CTPS2 protein or have lost CTPS2 protein expression, further features of the cellular consequences of CTPS2 expression loss can be examined, for example, by analyzing CTPS2 protein expression in primary tumor samples by immunohistochemistry and comparing key cellular features of CTPS2-expressing and CTPS2-deficient tumors, including proliferation and apoptosis in the presence or absence of a CTPS1 inhibitor in vitro, or by evaluating primary tumor samples with and without CTPS2 expression in an in vivo transplantation model, such as transplantation into immunodeficient mice, where, for example, when the transplanted mice are treated with a CTPS1 inhibitor, the effect of treatment with the CTPS1 inhibitor is determined by measuring and comparing the growth kinetics of primary human cancers with and without CTPS2 expression.
