[0001] Cross-reference to related applications

[0002] This application claims priority to PCT application PCT / CN2023 / 123037, filed on September 29, 2023, and PCT application PCT / CN2024 / 117234, filed on September 5, 2024, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety for all purposes. Invention Field

[0003] This application relates to therapies (e.g., combination therapies) for treating cancer using ERK 1 / 2 inhibitors and / or KRAS G12C inhibitors. Background Technology

[0004] The Ras / Raf / MEK / ERK pathway is a classic mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling cascade pathway that participates in the activation of various growth factors, cytokines, mitogens, and hormone receptors, and is one of the most important signal transduction pathways controlling cell growth, differentiation, and survival.

[0005] Studies have shown that aberrant activation of the Ras / Raf / MEK / ERK pathways due to mutations or amplifications is a determinant of the development of many cancers. For example, KRAS is a key regulator of cytokines that shape the tumor microenvironment. KRAS mutations play a role in many cancers. The incidence of KRAS mutations in human tumors is approximately 22%. KRAS G12C mutations account for approximately 44% of all KRAS mutations. G12C is a single-point mutation in which a glycine residue at codon 12 of the KRAS protein is replaced with a cysteine ​​residue, favoring an active GTP-binding conformation. This promotes constitutive activation of signaling pathways leading to tumorigenesis.

[0006] Although KRAS G12C inhibitors have recently demonstrated clinical efficacy, the overall response rate (ORR) of two clinical-stage KRAS G12C inhibitors, sotorasib and adagrasib (MRTX849), is only in the 30-40% range. These data indicate that a significant proportion of individuals with KRAS G12C mutations exhibit primary resistance to KRAS G12C inhibition. The combination of G12C inhibitors with other pathway inhibitors to further enhance the antitumor effect of KRAS G12C inhibition has been explored, representing a highly relevant strategy for overcoming primary resistance and improving overall response rates. However, the use of inhibitors at these upstream nodes can rapidly lead to resistance issues due to mutations or pathway reactivation, significantly limiting their clinical application. In particular, the adaptive feedback reactivation of the RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK signaling cascade is a key molecular mechanism driving both primary and acquired resistance to KRAS G12C inhibitors. Achieving deeper and more lasting responses in these patients remains a significant challenge.

It should also be understood that the terminology used herein is for describing specific embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting.

[0115] As used in this specification and the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” include plural references unless otherwise expressly specified. Thus, for example, reference to “a molecule” optionally includes a combination of two or more such molecules, and so on.

[0116] As used herein, the term "about" refers to the typical range of error for a corresponding value, as is well known to those skilled in the art. References to "about" for a value or parameter herein include (and describe) embodiments for that value or parameter itself.

[0117] It should be understood that aspects and embodiments of this disclosure include aspects and embodiments that are “comprising,” “composed of,” and “substantially composed of.”

[0118] As used herein, the term "treatment" refers to a clinical intervention in a clinicopathological process aimed at altering the natural course of the treated individual or cells. The desired effects of treatment include slowing disease progression, improving or alleviating the disease state, and mitigating or improving prognosis. For example, an individual is successfully "treated" if one or more cancer-related symptoms are relieved or eliminated, including but not limited to reducing the proliferation of cancer cells (or destroying cancer cells), reducing symptoms caused by the disease, improving the quality of life of the patient, reducing the dosage of other medications required to treat the disease, and / or prolonging the individual's survival. In some implementations, "treating" a disease such as cancer means delaying disease progression, i.e., postponing, hindering, slowing, delaying, stabilizing, and / or postponing the development of a disease (e.g., cancer or KRAS G12C cancer). The duration of this delay varies depending on the medical history and / or the individual receiving treatment. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that a sufficient or significant delay can effectively encompass prevention, i.e., the individual does not develop the disease. For example, the occurrence of advanced cancer (such as metastatic cancer) may be delayed.

[0119] An "effective amount" is at least the minimum amount required to achieve a measurable improvement or prevention of a specific disease (e.g., cancer). Effective amounts as used herein may vary depending on a variety of factors, such as the patient's disease state, age, sex, and weight, and the ability of the therapeutic agent (or combination of therapeutic agents) to elicit the desired response in an individual. An effective amount also refers to the amount by which any toxic or adverse effects of the treatment are offset by the beneficial effects of the treatment. For therapeutic use, beneficial or desired outcomes include clinical outcomes such as reducing one or more symptoms caused by the disease, improving the quality of life of a person with the disease, reducing the dosage of other medications required to treat the disease, enhancing the effect of another medication (e.g., by targeting), delaying disease progression, and / or prolonging survival. For cancer or tumors, an effective amount of a drug may have the effects of reducing the number of cancer cells; reducing tumor size; inhibiting (i.e., to some extent slowing or ideally stopping) the invasion of cancer cells into peripheral organs; inhibiting (i.e., to some extent slowing and ideally stopping) tumor metastasis; inhibiting tumor growth to some extent; and / or alleviating one or more symptoms associated with the disease to some extent. An effective amount may be administered once or multiple times. For the purposes of this disclosure, an effective amount of a drug, compound, or pharmaceutical composition is an amount sufficient to directly or indirectly achieve therapeutic effects. As understood in a clinical context, an effective amount of a drug, compound, or pharmaceutical composition may be achieved in combination with another drug, compound, or pharmaceutical composition, or may not be achieved in combination with another drug, compound, or pharmaceutical composition. Therefore, an "effective amount" may be considered in the case of administration of one or more therapeutic agents, and a single agent may be considered to be administered in an effective amount if the desired result can be achieved or attained in combination with one or more other agents.

[0120] As used herein, the term "subject" for therapeutic purposes means any animal classified as a mammal, including humans, domesticated and farm animals, as well as zoo animals, sporting animals, or pet animals, such as dogs, horses, cats, cattle, etc. Preferably, the mammal is a human.

[0121] The terms “subject” and “patient” are used interchangeably and include mammals such as humans and non-human primates, as well as rabbits, rats, mice, goats, pigs, and other mammals. The term does not necessarily mean that a subject has been diagnosed with a disease, but generally refers to an individual under medical supervision.

[0122] In the context of preventing a condition, the term “prevention” generally refers to preventing or delaying the onset of a disease, or preventing a subject (whether human or animal) from developing its clinical or subclinical symptoms, for example, preventing the disease from occurring in a subject who is susceptible to the condition or disease but has not yet been diagnosed with it.

[0123] As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable" means that the solvent, diluent, excipient, and / or its salts are chemically and / or physically compatible with the other components in the formulation and physiologically compatible with the recipient.

[0124] As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and / or excipient" means a carrier and / or excipient that is pharmacologically and / or physiologically compatible with the subject and the active agent, and is well known in the art (see, for example, Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences. Edited by Gennaro AR, 19th ed. Pennsylvania: Mack Publishing Company, 1995), including but not limited to pH adjusters, surfactants, adjuvants, and ionic strength enhancers. For example, pH adjusters include, but are not limited to, phosphate buffers; surfactants include, but are not limited to, cationic, anionic, or nonionic surfactants, such as Tween-80; and ionic strength enhancers include, but are not limited to, sodium chloride.

[0125] As used in this article, the term "adjuvant" refers to a nonspecific immune enhancer that, when delivered to an organism along with or before an antigen, can enhance the organism's immune response to the antigen or alter the type of immune response. There are various types of adjuvants, including but not limited to aluminum adjuvants (e.g., aluminum hydroxide), Freund's adjuvants (e.g., complete and incomplete Freund's adjuvants), Corynebacterium, lipopolysaccharides, and cytokines. Freund's adjuvant is currently the most commonly used adjuvant in animal experiments. Aluminum hydroxide adjuvant is more commonly used in clinical trials.

[0126] The pharmaceutically acceptable salts disclosed herein can be prepared from parent compounds containing acidic or basic moieties by conventional chemical methods. Generally, such salts can be prepared by reacting the free acidic or basic form of the compound with a stoichiometric amount of an appropriate base or acid in water or an organic solvent or a mixture thereof.

[0127] The compounds disclosed herein may exist in specific geometric or stereoisomeric forms. This disclosure considers all such compounds, including cis and trans isomers, (-)- and (+)- enantiomers, (R)- and (S)- enantiomers, diastereomers, (D)- isomers, (L)- isomers, racemic mixtures, and other mixtures, such as mixtures rich in enantiomers or diastereomers, all of which are covered within the scope of this disclosure. Substituents such as alkyl groups may have additional asymmetric carbon atoms. All such isomers and mixtures thereof are covered within the scope of this disclosure.

[0128] The compounds disclosed herein may contain atomic isotopes in non-natural proportions on one or more atoms constituting the compound. For example, the compounds may be labeled with radioactive isotopes such as tritium (3H), iodine-125 (125I), or C-14 (14C). As another example, hydrogen may be substituted with deuterium to form deuterated drugs. The bond between deuterium and carbon is stronger than that between ordinary hydrogen and carbon. Compared to non-deuterated drugs, deuterated drugs offer advantages such as reduced toxicity, increased drug stability, enhanced efficacy, and prolonged biological half-life. Regardless of radioactivity, all variations in the isotopic composition of the compounds disclosed herein are included within the scope of this invention.

[0129] The term “optional” or “optionally” means that a subsequent event or condition may occur but is not required, and the term includes both cases where the event or condition occurs and cases where the event or condition does not occur.

[0130] The term "substitution" refers to the replacement of one or more hydrogen atoms on a specific atom by a substituent, including deuterium and hydrogen variants, provided that the valence of the specific atom is normal and the substituted compound is stable. When the substituent is oxo (i.e., =O), it means that two hydrogen atoms are replaced. Positions on the aromatic ring cannot be oxo-substituted. The term "optional substitution" means that an atom may or may not be substituted by a substituent; unless otherwise stated, the type and number of substituents can be arbitrary, as long as it is chemically feasible.

[0131] When any variable (e.g., R) appears more than once in the composition or structure of a compound, the definition of that variable is independent each time it appears. Therefore, for example, if a group is substituted by 0-2 Rs, that group can optionally be substituted by up to two Rs, where the definition of R is independent each time it appears. Furthermore, combinations of substituents and / or their variants are only permitted if such combinations yield a stable compound.

[0132] When the number of linking groups is 0, for example -(CRR)0-, it indicates that the linking group is a single bond.

[0133] When one of the variables is a single bond, it means that the two groups connected by the single bond are directly connected. For example, when L in ALZ represents a single bond, the structure of ALZ is actually AZ.

[0134] When the linkage direction of the listed linking groups is not specified, the linkage direction is arbitrary. For example, when When the linking group L is -MW-, -MW- can be attached to rings A and B in the same direction according to the reading order from left to right, forming... Alternatively, they can be connected to rings A and B in the opposite direction according to the reading order from left to right, forming... Combinations of linking groups, substituents, and / or their variants are permitted only if a stable compound can be obtained.

[0135] Unless otherwise stated, when a group has one or more connectable sites, any one or more sites of that group can be connected to other groups via chemical bonds. When the connection sites of chemical bonds are variable and there are hydrogen atoms at the connectable sites, when a connectable site with a hydrogen atom is connected to a chemical bond, as the number of connected chemical bonds increases, the number of hydrogen atoms at that site decreases accordingly, and the group becomes a group with the corresponding valence. The chemical bond between this site and other groups can be a straight solid line bond (…). ), straight dashed key ( ) or wavy line ( () indicates that the group is linked to other groups through the oxygen atom in the group. For example, the straight solid line bond in -OCH3 indicates that the group is linked to other groups through the oxygen atom in the group; The straight dashed bond in the figure indicates that the group is connected to other groups through the two ends of the nitrogen atom in the group; The wavy line in the diagram indicates that the group is connected to other groups through the 1-carbon and 2-carbon atoms in the phenyl group; This means that any connectable site on the piperidinyl group can be linked to other groups via a single chemical bond, including... , , and There are at least four connection methods; even if an H atom is drawn on -N-, Still includes The connection method is the same; however, for each chemical bond added, the number of H atoms at that position decreases by one, and the group becomes the corresponding monovalent piperidinyl group.

[0136] Unless otherwise stated, wedge solid keys ( ) and wedge-shaped dashed key ( ) indicates the absolute configuration of the solid center; straight solid line key ( ) and straight dashed key ( ) indicates the relative configuration of the center of the solid; wavy line ( ) indicates a wedge-shaped solid key ( ) or wedge-shaped dashed key ( ); or wavy lines ( ) indicates a solid key ( ) and dashed key ( ).For example, express and ,as well as represent and .

[0137] Unless otherwise stated, the terms “rich in one isomer,” “isomer-enriched,” “enriched in one enantiomer,” or “enantiomer-enriched” mean that the content of one isomer or enantiomer is less than 100%, and the content of the isomer or enantiomer is 60% or more, or 70% or more, or 80% or more, or 90% or more, or 95% or more, or 96% or more, or 97% or more, or 98% or more, or 99% or more, or 99.5% or more, or 99.6% or more, or 99.7% or more, or 99.8% or more, or 99.9% or more.

[0138] Optically active (R)- and (S)- isomers, or D- and L- isomers, can be prepared using chiral synthesis or chiral reagents or other conventional techniques. To obtain an enantiomer of a compound disclosed herein, the resulting diastereomeric mixture can be separated by asymmetric synthesis or derivatization with a chiral auxiliary, and the auxiliary group can be cleaved to obtain the pure desired enantiomer. Alternatively, when the molecule contains a basic functional group (such as an amino group) or an acidic functional group (such as a carboxyl group), the compound reacts with a suitable optically active acid or base to form a salt of the diastereomeric compound, which is then resolved by diastereomeric methods conventional in the art to obtain the pure enantiomer. Furthermore, the separation of enantiomers and diastereomeric compounds is typically performed using chromatography with a chiral stationary phase, optionally combined with chemical derivatization (e.g., from amines to carbamates).

[0259] KRAS and KRAS inhibitors

[0260] A. KRAS

[0261] The Kirsten rat sarcoma (KRAS) gene belongs to the RAS family, and its mutations are a genetic driver of various cancer types, particularly colorectal cancer (CRC), pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). KRAS-G12 mutations (89%) are predominant in human cancers, followed by G13 (9%) and Q61 (1%) mutations. Furthermore, G12D mutations are the most common among the three most common G12C (14%), G12D (36%), and G12V (23%) mutations. Compared to G12D, which plays a major role in PDAC, G12C is the most common mutation subtype in NSCLC (13%). Identifying specific types of KRAS mutations in combination with other gene mutations can provide information about disease aggressiveness or drug sensitivity, which is fundamental to precision medicine or personalized care. See, for example, Liu et al., Cancer Gene Ther 29, 875–878 (2022).

[0262] KRAS protein is a signaling GTPase that switches between active GTP-binding and inactive GDP-binding conformations. Guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) promotes the exchange of GDP for GTP on KRAS, while GTP-activating protein (GAP) facilitates the exchange of GTP for GDP. Activation of plasma membrane receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) such as the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) family initiates KRAS activation and subsequent multiple effector pathways, particularly the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathways. Downstream of RTKs, SOS-Ras / Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1 (SOS1) and protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 11 (PTPN11, preferably referred to as SHP2) promote the ratio of GDP-GTP exchange, leading to KRAS activation. Comparison of the GTP and GDP-binding structures of KRAS identified two regions, termed switch I and switch II. A mutant cysteine ​​residue 12 is located adjacent to the pocket (P2) in switch II. Compared to wild-type, KRAS mutations disrupt the guanine exchange cycle, thereby locking it into an inactive GDP-binding form that drives pro-tumor signals. Oncogenic KRAS signaling establishes a major signaling axis for tumor cell proliferation and survival, providing a key target for cancer therapy. See, for example, Liu et al., Cancer Gene Ther 29, 875–878 (2022).

[0263] B. KRAS G12C inhibitors

[0264] Despite long being considered "untreatable," promising progress has recently been made in clinical trials of drugs that directly inhibit oncogenic RAS, thanks to the development of drugs that specifically bind to the KRAS-G12C mutant protein. In particular, the covalently valent KRAS-G12C inhibitors sotorasib and adagrasib are being used to treat patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring KRAS-G13C mutations. Unfortunately, the vast majority of patients do not fully respond to KRAS-G12C inhibitor therapy, primarily due to intrinsic or acquired resistance caused by cellular, molecular, and genetic mechanisms. Improved understanding of drug responses in the tumor microenvironment is likely to continue to advance the design, testing, and clinical application of KRAS-G12C inhibitors. See Liu et al., Cancer Gene Ther 29, 875–878 (2022).

[0265] In some embodiments, a KRAS inhibitor is an inhibitor of the G12C variant of KRAS (i.e., KRAS G12C). In some embodiments, the term "KRAS G12C inhibitor" refers to any agent that inhibits the activity of the KRAS G12C mutant protein, such as a peptide, fusion peptide, antibody, peptide, antisense oligonucleotide, or small molecule drug. In some embodiments, the KRAS G12C inhibitor interacts directly with the KRAS G12C mutant protein to inhibit its activity.

[0266] In some embodiments, the KRAS G12C inhibitor is a small molecule drug. In some embodiments, the KRAS G12C inhibitor is a small molecule (e.g., an irreversible small molecule inhibitor) that inhibits KRAS activity by forming an irreversible covalent bond with cysteine ​​residues of the KRAS G12C mutant protein.

[0267] a) Exemplary KRAS G12C inhibitors

[0268] The exemplary KRAS G12C inhibitors discussed herein (e.g., compound 17) include, but are not limited to, a class of KRAS G12C inhibitors. The molecular mode of action (MOA) of this class of KRAS G12C inhibitors is allosteric binding to the Switch II pocket of the GDP-binding form of the KRAS G12C protein and a covalent bond at cysteine-12. This irreversible binding traps KRAS G12C in its GDP-binding inactive state. This class of KRAS G12C inhibitors with the same mechanism of action (MOA) includes sotorasib, adgrasib, JDQ443, GDC-6036, etc. Therefore, ERK 1 / 2 inhibitors (e.g., WX001) and exemplary KRAS G12C inhibitors are expected to expand to all KRAS G12C inhibitors of the same class.

[0269] In some embodiments, the KRAS G12C inhibitor comprises or is a compound of formula (III) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

[0432] In some embodiments, the KRAS G12C inhibitor is AMG 510, also known as sotorasib, LUMAKRAS™, and LUMYKRAS™, as described above. AMG 510 is currently developed by Amgen / Beigene. AMG 510 can exist in two transtransfer-inhibiting isomers, one with higher activity than the other (see, for example, https: / / cen.acs.org / pharmaceuticals / drug-discovery / Amgen-unveils-KRas-inhibitor-human / 97 / i14). AMG 510 selectively forms an irreversible covalent bond with a sulfur atom in the cysteine ​​residue present in the G12C mutant form of the KRAS protein but not in the wild-type form. The covalent binding of AMG 510 to KRAS G12C locks the protein in its inactive GDP-binding conformation, thereby inhibiting KRAS-dependent signal transduction. AMG 150 has the chemical formula C30HF2N6O3 and a molecular weight of 560.606 g / mol. Chemically, AMG 150 is described as 6-fluoro-7-(2-fluoro-6-hydroxyphenyl)-(1M)-1-[4-m90cFv90ine-(propyl-2-yl)pyridin-3-yl]-4-[(2S)-2-methyl-4-(propyl-2-enoyl)piperazin-1-yl]pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-2(1H)-one, and has the following chemical structure:

[0433] .

[0434] The CAS registry number for AMG 510 is 2252403-56-6. The efficacy of AMG 510 has been demonstrated in a cohort of patients enrolled in a single-arm, open-label, multicenter trial (NCT03600883), and is currently under investigation in further clinical trials. Complete information on the preparation, dispensing, dosage, and administration schedule of AMG 510 can be found in the local package insert (for the United States, see, for example, www.accessdata.fda.gov / drugsatfda_docs / label / 2021 / 214665s000lbl.pdf). Further details on the structure and synthesis of AMG 510 are provided in WO 2018 / 217651, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.

[0435] In some embodiments, the KRAS G12C inhibitor is MRTX849 (also known as adagrasib). MRTX849 is currently being developed by Mirati / Zai Lab. Similar to AMG 510, MRTX849 selectively forms an irreversible covalent bond with a sulfur atom in a cysteine ​​residue present in the G12C mutant form of the KRAS protein but not in the wild-type form.

[0452] C. ERK 1 / 2

[0453] Extracellular regulated protein kinases (ERK) 1 and ERK2 are key players and terminal signaling kinases in the Ras / Raf / MEK / ERK pathway. ERK 1 / 2 act as crucial signaling nodules downstream of the Ras-Raf-MEK-ERK pathway and have been shown to be overactivated in human cancers driven by RAS or RAF mutations. Innate resistance to RAF or MEK inhibitors is partly due to loss of regulation through negative feedback loops and pathway reactivation.

[0454] Dysregulation of the RAS / RAF / MAP / ERK kinase cascade is associated with many human cancers. Any mutation leading to cascade signaling dysregulation results in aberrant activation of ERK 1 / 2 and tumorigenesis. Therefore, due to the importance of ERKs as key pathway regulators, they are highly controlled by a variety of spatial and temporal mechanisms. ERK 1 / 2 is directly phosphorylated by MEK1 and MEK2. Phosphorylated (e.g., activated) ERK 1 / 2 kinases subsequently phosphorylate a variety of substrates that regulate cell cycle progression, differentiation, and survival (Sugiura et al., Cells, 10(10): 2509 (2021)). For example, ERK 1 / 2-regulated transcription factors control genes that play important roles in key cellular processes such as cell proliferation and cell cycle progression.

[0455] The ERK signaling cascade is also involved in several aspects of tumor development (Sugiura et al., Cells, 10(10):2509 (2021)). For example, ERK 1 / 2-mediated phosphorylation of certain protein substrates (such as focal adhesion kinase) promotes cancer cell migration.

[0456] D. ERK 1 / 2 inhibitors

[0457] Because ERK kinases are a link between several important signaling pathways in normal cells, progress with ERK inhibitors has been limited due to their low therapeutic index. However, tumors with altered upstream proteins of ERK 1 / 2 have been observed to be sensitive to ERK inhibitors (Chin et al. Jour. Imm. Pres. Onc., 2(1):10-16, (2020)). ERK 1 / 2 inhibitors are known to inhibit ERK kinases through one of two main mechanisms. ERK inhibitors can inhibit ERK catalytic activity by competing for ATP binding sites. These inhibitors, known as catalytic ERKi or catERKi, are reversible inhibitors that primarily lead to the accumulation of phosphorylated ERK 1 / 2 in the cell nucleus (Kidger et al., Mol. Cancer Ther. 19(2): 525-539 (2020)). Dual-mechanism ERK inhibitors (dmERKi) prevent ERK activation by blocking MEK1 / 2-mediated phosphorylation of the TEY motif (Kidger et al., 2020).

[0458] In some embodiments, an ERK 1 / 2 inhibitor is an inhibitor of ERK 1 / 2. In some embodiments, the term "ERK 1 / 2" refers to any agent that inhibits the activity of ERK 1 / 2 proteins (e.g., ERK 1 / 2 kinases), such as peptides, fusion peptides, antibodies, peptides, antisense oligonucleotides, or small molecule drugs. In some embodiments, an ERK 1 / 2 inhibitor interacts directly with the ERK 1 / 2 protein to inhibit its activity.

[0459] In some embodiments, the ERK 1 / 2 inhibitor is a small molecule drug. In some embodiments, the ERK 1 / 2 inhibitor is a small molecule (e.g., a reversible small molecule catalytic ERK 1 / 2 inhibitor) that inhibits ERK 1 / 2 catalytic activity by competitively binding to the ERK 1 / 2 protein with ATP. In some embodiments, the ERK 1 / 2 inhibitor is a small molecule (e.g., a dual-mechanism ERK 1 / 2 inhibitor) that inhibits ERK 1 / 2 activity, thereby preventing the formation of the active ERK 1 / 2 conformation. In some embodiments, the ERK 1 / 2 inhibitor prevents the phosphorylation of ERK 1 / 2. In some embodiments, the ERK 1 / 2 inhibitor is a thiazolactam spiroheterocyclic compound, such as the ERK 1 / 2 inhibitor disclosed in WO2023274256, which is incorporated herein by reference. Preparation and / or synthesis of ERK 1 / 2 inhibitors can be found in WO2023274256.

[0509] E. KRAS-G12C resistance

[0510] In some embodiments, the cancer is resistant to prior KRAS treatment (e.g., treatment involving a KRAS-G12C inhibitor, or the cancer has acquired resistance to KRAS G12C inhibition, such as resistance to KRAS inhibitors like MRTX849, AMG510, or compound 17, or has acquired resistance). In some embodiments, the cancer (e.g., cancer cells) responds only partially to prior KRAS treatment. In some embodiments, a partial response is determined by the lack of tumor regression. In some embodiments, a partial response is determined by tumor growth inhibition of no more than about 90%, 80%, 70%, 60%, 50%, 40%, 30%, or 20% (e.g., calculated using the methods described herein).

[0511] A range of strategies have attempted to indirectly target KRAS, such as by inhibiting farnesyltransferases through blocking KRAS post-translational modifications or suppressing downstream KRAS effectors. Amgen and Mirati Therapeutics have developed two direct KRAS-G12C inhibitors, sotorasib (also known as AMG 510 or Lumakras) and adagrasib (also known as MRTX849), which lock KRAS in an inactive state to prevent cell proliferation by selectively forming a covalent bond with cysteine ​​12 within the switch II pocket of the KRAS-G12C protein. Preclinical studies have shown that sotorasib and adagrasib selectively attenuate the viability of KRAS-G12C mutant cell lines without affecting cell lines with other KRAS mutations in vitro and in vivo. Both sotorasib and adagrasib have long half-lives (5.5–24 hours) and wide tissue distribution in humans. Surprisingly, neither sotorasib nor adagrasib affects PI3K signaling, indicating that upstream pathways independent of KRAS-G12C promote PI3K activation, which explains the development of resistance to KRAS-G12C inhibitors.

[0512] Emerging preclinical and clinical evidence suggests that the most significant obstacle to KRAS-G12C inhibitor therapy is the inevitable development of resistance. While the problem of resistance to treatment is multifaceted, intercellular variability or intratumoral heterogeneity is considered a major contributing factor to KRAS-G12C inhibitor resistance. Single-cell RNA sequencing analysis of KRAS-G12C mutant NSCLC cell lines treated with the KRAS-G12C inhibitor ARS1620 revealed that a subpopulation of cells synthesizing novel KRAS-G12C protein instead of wild-type KRAS protein was the cause of adaptive resistance. See, for example, Nature. 2020 Jan; 577(7790):421-425. Further analysis suggests that EGFR or Aurora kinase A (AURKA) signaling can maintain newly expressed KRAS-G12C protein in an active GTP-binding form, thereby evading KRAS-G12C inhibitor therapy. However, another study showed that wild-type RAS activation mediated by multiple RTKs, rather than a single RTK, is the cause of acquired resistance to KRAS-G12C inhibitors (ARS-1620 and sotorasib) in various cancer cell lines. See Clin Cancer Res. 2020; 26:1633–43. In any case, numerous independent studies have demonstrated the importance of PTPN11 / SHP2 as a common downstream of RTKs in activating wild-type or mutant KRAS proteins to mediate acquired resistance. A clinical trial (NCT04330664) is underway to test the combination of TNO155 (an SHP2 inhibitor) and adagrasib in patients with advanced solid tumors harboring KRAS-G12C mutations. Furthermore, activation of the PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway contributes to the development of sotorasib resistance in human PDAC cell lines in vitro and in xenograft mouse models. Gene set enrichment analysis and mass spectrometry-based phosphorylation proteomics analysis revealed that the induction of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) promotes resistance to sotorasib or ARS-1620 in NSCLC cells through cell type-dependent activation of the PI3K or ERK pathway. Nuclear factor, erythrocyte-like 2 (NFE2L2, best known as NRF2), regulated by kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (KEAP1), is a key transcription factor in cellular antioxidant responses. KEAP1 or NFE2L2 mutations predicted to be poorly responsive to checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapy may also be associated with resistance to adagrasib. These findings provide a therapeutic approach targeting kinases or transcription factors to overcome resistance to KRAS-G12C inhibitors.See, for example, CancerGene Ther 29, 875–878 (2022).

[0513] Furthermore, intrinsic or adaptive resistance may be caused by concurrent genetic alterations, such as secondary KRAS mutations and other gene mutations that are not targeted by KRAS-G12C inhibitors. In fact, a recent clinical study used next-generation sequencing and deep mutation scanning to characterize genetic variations in tissue samples or circulating tumor DNA from patients resistant to adagrasib. In 38 patients with KRAS-G12C-mutant cancers (27 with NSCLC, 10 with colorectal cancer, and 1 with appendiceal cancer) who received adagrasib monotherapy, 45% were found to have a presumed mechanism of resistance to adagrasib. Furthermore, 18% of these patients exhibited multiple overlapping genetic mechanisms: acquired KRAS mutations G12D / R / V / W, G13D, Q61H, R68S, H95D / Q / R, and Y96C; high-level amplification of the KRAS-G12C allele; acquired bypass resistance mechanisms including MET amplification; activating mutations in NRAS, BRAF, MAP2K1, RETALK, RET, RAF1, FGFR3, NF1, and PTEN; oncogenic fusions involving ALK, RET, BRAF, RAF1, and FGFR3; and loss-of-function mutations in NF1 and PTEN. This information can ultimately be synthesized at any decision point for each tumor cell and used to adjust treatment. Similarly, one NSCLC patient was reported to have acquired resistance to adagrasib, which was associated with the reactivation of RAS-MAPK signaling by mutations in 10 secondary genes along the RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK pathway. The KRAS-Y96D mutation directly affects the binding of adagrasib to the P2 pocket, leading to resistance in multiple cancer cell lines (H358, MIAPaCa2, and BaF3) to sotorasib, adagrasib, or ARS-1620. In contrast, Revolution Medicines' novel RAS(ON) inhibitor, the representative KRAS-G12C selective inhibitor RM-018, maintains potent inhibitory activity against tumor cells carrying the KRAS-G12C / Y92D double mutation. Besides KRAS-Y96D, KRAS-Y96S and KRAS-Y96C are also contributing factors to BaF3 cell resistance to sotorasib or adagrasib, a process that can be reversed by combining with the SOS1 inhibitor (BI-3406). In summary, these results highlight the complexity of the genetic mechanisms underlying resistance to KRAS-G12C inhibitors.See, for example, Cancer Gene Ther 29, 875–878 (2022).

Every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the figures used (e.g., quantities, temperatures, etc.), but some experimental errors and biases should be taken into account. Unless otherwise stated, parts are parts by weight, molecular weights are weight-average molecular weights, temperatures are in degrees Celsius, and pressures are at atmospheres or near atmospheres.

[0683] Example 1. Evaluation of the antitumor efficacy of ERK 1 / 2 inhibitors combined with KRAS G12C inhibitors in the NCI-H2122 human lung cancer xenograft mouse model.

[0684] The aim was to evaluate the in vivo antitumor efficacy of WX001 (i.e., WX001; an ERK 1 / 2 inhibitor) in combination with compound 17 (a KRAS G12C inhibitor) in subcutaneous NCI-H2122 human lung cancer xenografts implanted in female BALB / c nude mice.

[0685] Unlike other ERK 1 / 2 inhibitors (such as Erasca's ERAS-007m, which requires a complex BID-QW dosing regimen), WX001 is administered using a simple continuous QD regimen without the dosing holidays described below, thus providing a convenient and simple option for patients.

[0686] (Compound 17)

[0687] (WX001)

[0688] While several potent ERK inhibitors (such as AZD0364, ERAS007, and MK-8353) have relatively long target protein residence times (ranging from 190 to 550 minutes), WX001 has an ERK protein residence time of approximately 40 minutes. The inventors have uniquely observed that WX001's moderate protein residence time is more advantageous because it is long enough to allow for adequate target blockade while being short enough to allow for pulsed inhibition, which helps mitigate target toxicity in normal tissues. The clinical pharmacokinetic (PK) of WX001 is approximately 3–6 hours, further supporting its intermittent target-inhibiting properties when administered once daily, twice daily, or every two days.

[0689] Materials and methods:

[0690] NCI-H2122 tumor cells (ATCC, cat# CRL-5985) were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% PS at an incubator temperature of 37°C. o C, CO2 5%. Tumor cells were routinely passaged twice a week. Cells in the exponential growth phase were harvested, counted, and used for tumor inoculation.

[0691] Female BALB / c nude mice were subcutaneously inoculated on the right side with NCI-H2122 tumor cells (5 × 10⁻⁶). 6 The tumor was treated with 0.2 mL PBS + Matrigel (1:1) to promote tumor growth. Treatment began on day 6 post-inoculation, at which time the average tumor volume reached 159 mm. 3 Animals were stratified and randomly assigned to multiple groups based on tumor volume using Excel-based randomization software. Each group consisted of 6 tumor-bearing mice. The test sample was prepared and administered to the mice according to the predetermined administration protocol shown in the experimental design table (Table E1).

[0692] Table E1: Experimental Design and Dosage of the NCI-H2122 Xenograft Model

[0693]

[0694] QD: Once a day, BID: Twice a day.

[0695] The tumor volume was measured twice a week using calipers in two dimensions, and the volume was expressed in mm using the following formula. 3 This means: V = 0.5 axb 2 , where a and b are the long and short diameters of the tumor, respectively. The T / C (%) value for each group is calculated using the following formula: T / C % = T / C × 100 % (T: treatment group; C: control group, where T and C are the average tumor weights of the treatment group and control group on a given day, respectively).

[0696] The tumor growth inhibition rate (TGI) for each group was calculated using the following formula: TGI (%) = [1 - (T i - T0) / (V i - V0)] × 100;T i T0 represents the average tumor volume of the treatment group on a specific day, and V represents the average tumor volume of the treatment group on the first day of treatment. i To be with T i The average tumor volume of the solvent group on the same day, V0 is the average tumor volume of the solvent group on the first day of treatment.

[0697] Statistical analysis was performed on the differences in tumor volume and tumor weight between groups based on data obtained on day 28 after the start of treatment.

[0698] One-way ANOVA was used to compare tumor volumes among the groups, followed by Dunnet multiple comparisons. All data were analyzed using Graphpad Prism software. p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

[0699] Animal weight was monitored regularly as an indirect measure of toxicity. Historical data showed that mice carrying the NCI-H2122 xenograft typically lost more than 15% of their body weight as the tumor progressed; therefore, all mice were fed nutritional gels and sunflower seeds.

[0700] result:

[0701] NCI-H2122 is a non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell line carrying a KRAS G12C mutation. Previous studies (Cancer Discov. 2020 Jan;10(1):54-71) have shown that the NCI-H2122 model represents a cancer phenotype that is partially sensitive to KRAS G12C inhibitors (e.g., MRTX849). In this study, the antitumor effect of WX001 in combination with compound 17 was evaluated in an NCI-H2122 cell line-derived xenograft model. Two clinical-stage KRAS G12C inhibitors, AMG510 and MRTX849, were included in the monotherapy control group. The efficacy of two different dose levels of WX001 monotherapy was also evaluated.

[0702] On average, the treatment was well tolerated, as indicated by the average percentage of weight loss. Figure 1 Notably, mice treated with the combination of compound 17 and WX001 did not experience a greater weight loss than the solvent control group. Figure 1 ).

[0726] In this study, the therapeutic effects of compound 17 and WX001 as monotherapy and in combination were evaluated in the NCI-H2122 human lung cancer subcutaneous xenograft model. Tumor volume at different time points after tumor inoculation in different groups is shown in Tables E3 and E4. Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the tumor weight results are presented in Table E5 and... Figure 4 As shown.

[0727] On day 28 after administration, the mean tumor volume in the solvent control group reached 2,359 mm. 3 Treatment with the reference compound MRTX849 at 100 mg / kg (QD) and AMG510 at 100 mg / kg (QD) produced significant antitumor activity, with mean tumor volumes of 556 mm. 3 (T / C = 23.56%, TGI =81.97%, p<0.001) and 615 mm 3(T / C = 26.09%, TGI = 79.25%, p < 0.001). While tumor regression was frequently observed with AMG510 and MRTX849 at this dose level (100 mg / kg) in other KRAS G12C models, only significant tumor growth inhibition was observed in the NCI-H2122 model, with no effect on tumor regression. These data are consistent with published results (Cancer Discov. 2020 Jan;10(1):54-71), indicating partial resistance to KRAS G12C inhibitors in NCI-H2122.

[0728] Consistently, treatment with compound 17 (a potent and selective KRAS G12C inhibitor currently in clinical trials, NCT05410145) only resulted in tumor growth inhibition. No tumor regression was observed at either 30 mg / kg (QD) or 100 mg / kg (QD) doses. Compared to the solvent control group, treatment with compound 17 at doses of 30 mg / kg (QD) and 100 mg / kg (QD) produced antitumor activity with mean tumor volumes of 527 mm. 3 (T / C = 22.36%, TGI =83.25%, p<0.001), 548 mm 3 (T / C = 23.23%, TGI = 82.31%, p < 0.001). There was no difference between the group treated with compound 17 at 30 mg / kg and the group treated with compound 17 at 100 mg / kg, indicating that in this partial resistance model, the tumor-suppressive effect of compound 17 as monotherapy does not increase further with increasing dose.

[0729] Compared with the solvent control group, the ERK 1 / 2 inhibitor WX001, administered as monotherapy at doses of 25 mg / kg (BID), 25 mg / kg (QD), and 50 mg / kg (QD), all demonstrated significant antitumor activity, with mean tumor volumes of 778 mm. 3 (T / C =33.00%, TGI =71.84%, p<0.001), 1182 mm 3 (T / C = 50.13%, TGI =53.47%, p<0.001) and 777 mm 3 (T / C = 32.94%, TGI = 71.91%, p < 0.001). These data indicate that WX001 has moderate antitumor activity in the NCI-H2122 xenograft model.

[0730] When compound 17 was combined with WX001 at 30 mg / kg QD, 25 mg / kg (QD), or 50 mg / kg (QD), its antitumor activity was stronger than that of the corresponding doses of the single drug, with an average tumor volume of 262 mm. 3 (T / C= 11.11%, TGI =95.31%), 420 mm 3 (T / C = 17.81%, TGI = 88.14%) and 184 mm 3 (T / C = 7.79%, TGI = 98.88%). Compared with monotherapy with compound 17 at 30 mg / kg, the combination of compound 17 at 30 mg / kg QD and WX001 at 50 mg / kg QD significantly enhanced the antitumor effect (p = 0.0339). These results indicate that the combination of WX001 with a KRAS G12C inhibitor (such as compound 17) can almost completely inhibit tumor growth in KRAS G12C mutant tumor models that are partially resistant to KRAS G12C inhibitors.

[0731] Animal body weight was monitored regularly as an indirect measure of toxicity. Historical data showed that mice carrying NCI-H2122 xenografts typically experienced weight loss of more than 15% as the tumor progressed; therefore, all mice were fed nutritional gels and sunflower seeds. In the solvent group, 2, 1, and 2 mice, respectively, experienced weight loss >15% at PG-D14, PG-D21, and PG-D28. One mouse in group 5 (compound 17, 100 mg / kg, QD), one mouse in group 6 (WX001, 25 mg / kg, BID), and one mouse in group 9 (compound 17 + WX001, 30 mg / kg + 25 mg / kg, QD + BID) experienced weight loss >15% at PG-D11. Three mice in group 6 (WX001, 25 mg / kg, BID), three mice in group 7 (WX001, 25 mg / kg, QD), one mouse in group 8 (WX001, 50 mg / kg, QD), and two mice in group 9 (compound 17 + WX001, 30 mg / kg + 25 mg / kg, QD + BID) experienced a weight loss of >15% at PG-D18. The overall weight changes in all treatment groups were similar to those in the solvent control group, indicating good treatment tolerability in this study.

[0732] Example 2: Evaluation of the antitumor efficacy of ERK 1 / 2 inhibitors combined with KRAS G12C inhibitors in SW-837 human colorectal cancer xenograft mouse model.

[0733] The aim of this study was to evaluate, in preclinical, the in vivo efficacy of WX001 in combination with compound 17, a KRAS G12C inhibitor currently in clinical development, for the treatment of the human colorectal cancer xenograft model SW-837 (a cell line-derived xenograft model carrying a KRAS G12C mutation). The antitumor efficacy of compound 17 or WX001 as monotherapy in this model was also evaluated and compared with combination therapy.

[0734] Materials and methods:

[0735] The group design is shown in Table E7, and the dosage form and dosage are also shown in Table E7. The application volume is adjusted according to body weight (application amount = 5 μL / g).

[0736] Table E7: Study Design of the SW-837 Xenograft Model

[0737]

[0738] SW-837 tumor cells were cultured in vitro at 37ºC in air containing 5% CO2 in L-15 (100% air) medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum. Cells in the exponential growth phase were harvested and quantified using a cell counter before inoculation into tumor cells. Each mouse was subcutaneously inoculated with 5 × 10⁻⁶ SW-837 tumor cells in the right lower quadrant. 6 A mixture of 0.1 ml PBS and Matrigel (1:1) was administered to each mouse cell to promote tumor growth.

[0739] When the average tumor size reaches approximately 144 mm 3 At that time, randomization began. A total of 48 mice were included in this study. All animals were randomly assigned to 6 study groups, with 8 mice in each group. Randomization was based on the "matched distribution" method (StudyDirector). TM Software, version 3.1.399.19). Dosing was administered immediately after randomization on day 0. Treatment began on the day of randomization (day 0), according to the study design (Table E7).

[0740] When the average tumor volume reaches approximately 144 mm 3 Treatment began on [date]. After randomization, the trial lasted 41 days (day 0 to day 40), including efficacy studies from day 0 to day 39. Plasma samples were taken on day 40 after the last administration. Tumor growth inhibition (TGI) was calculated from day 39, the end of the efficacy study.

[0741] Weight was measured twice a week. After randomization, tumor volume was also measured twice a week in two dimensions using calipers, with the volume expressed in mm. 3The formula is: "V = (L x W x W) / 2, where V is the tumor volume, L is the tumor length (longest tumor size), and W is the tumor width (longest tumor size perpendicular to L). Drug administration and tumor and weight measurements were performed in a laminar flow hood. StudyDirector was used." TM The software (version 3.1.399.19) measured body weight and tumor volume. The body weight of all animals was monitored throughout the study, and animals were euthanized if their body weight decreased by more than 20% relative to their weight on day one of treatment. Tumors exceeding 3000 mm in mice were also euthanized. 3 In this case, euthanasia is performed on a single mouse.

[0742] Randomization begins on day 0, and the study termination date is determined by the sponsor or until a single mouse's tumor size exceeds 3000 mm. 3 When the tumor volume of a single mouse reaches the humane endpoint and the sponsor requests, the study will terminate on the date specified after randomization. Treatment will last for 41 days from the start of grouping (day 0 to day 40), and mice will be sacrificed on day 41.

[0743] To compare tumor volumes across different groups on predetermined dates, the Bartlett test was first used to check the hypothesis of homogeneity of variance among all groups. When the p-value of the Bartlett test was ≥ 0.05, a one-way ANOVA was performed to test the overall equality of means among all groups. If the p-value of the one-way ANOVA was < 0.05, further post-hoc tests were performed by running the Tukey HSD (honest significance test) for all pairwise comparisons and by running the Dunnett test to compare each treatment group with the solvent group. When the p-value of the Bartlett test was < 0.05, the Kruskal-Wallis test was performed to test the overall equality of medians among all groups. If the p-value of the Kruskal-Wallis test was < 0.05, further post-hoc tests were performed by running the Conover nonparametric test for all pairwise comparisons or for comparing each treatment group with the solvent group, all with one-step p-adjustment.

[0744] In addition, pairwise comparisons without multiple comparison correction were performed, and the nominal / uncorrected p-values ​​were reported directly from the Welch t test or the Mann-Whitney U test. Specifically, the Bartlett test was first used to test the hypothesis of homogeneity of variance between the two groups. When the p-value of the Bartlett test was ≥0.05, the Welch t test or the Mann-Whitney U test was performed to obtain the nominal p-value.

[0745] All statistical analyses were performed using Ra language and the Statistical Computing and Graphics Environment (version 3.3.1). Unless otherwise stated, all tests were two-tailed, and a p-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

[0746] result:

[0747] In this study, the in vivo efficacy of investigational compound 17 (a KRAS G12C inhibitor) and WX001 (an ERK 1 / 2 inhibitor) as monotherapy or in combination therapy in the treatment of SW-837, a subcutaneous human colorectal cancer xenograft model carrying the KRAS G12C mutation, was evaluated.

[0748] During administration, only a small number of animals in the compound treatment group showed minimal to moderate treatment-related weight loss. Figure 5 Mice in the treatment group were not given a dosing holiday due to weight loss exceeding 15%. No animal deaths were observed throughout the dosing period. No mice developed tumors exceeding 3000 mm² before the study was terminated. 3 They were then euthanized. The tumor-bearing mice in this study generally tolerated the test drug.

[0749] Bartlett's test was used to determine homogeneity of variance and normality, and nonparametric tests were used to compare differences between groups. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Compound 17, administered as a single agent at 10 mg / kg, produced statistically significant antitumor efficacy in the subcutaneous xenograft model SW-837, with a TGI of 100.92% (p < 0.001 compared to the solvent control). Treatment with WX001 at 25 mg / kg and 50 mg / kg as single agents produced antitumor efficacy, with TGI values ​​of 29.43% and 53.64%, respectively (p < 0.05 compared to the solvent control) (Table E9). Figure 6A ).

[0750] Table E9: Antitumor activity of tested compounds in the SW-837 model

[0751]

[0752] Combination therapy of 25 mg / kg or 50 mg / kg WX001 with 10 mg / kg compound 17 showed stronger antitumor efficacy than compound 17 alone (p<0.001 compared with compound 17 monotherapy), with TGI values ​​of 104.58% and 105.11%, respectively (Table E9). Figure 6AIn the analysis of mean tumor volume change relative to baseline, the combination of 25 mg / kg or 50 mg / kg WX001 with 10 mg / kg compound 17 showed a significantly deeper antitumor response, with tumor regression of -77.45% and -86.64% relative to baseline, respectively, while the use of 10 mg / kg compound 17 alone resulted in a tumor regression of -15.02% relative to baseline.

[0753] Overall, these data suggest that the ERK 1 / 2 inhibitor WX001 can significantly enhance the antitumor effect of the KRAS G12C inhibitor compound 17 in a SW837 colorectal cancer xenograft model with KRAS G12C mutation.

[0754] Throughout the experiment, the animals exhibited minimal treatment-related weight loss. See also Figure 5 In this study, test compound 17 and WX001, as single agents or in combination, were well tolerated in tumor-bearing mice.

[0755] Furthermore, the addition of WX001 to the compound 17 and cetuximab dual therapy resulted in a curative antitumor effect in the SW837 colorectal cancer model. Specifically, mice were treated with a suboptimal dose of compound 17 (3 mg / kg), a combination of WX001 (25 mg / kg BID) and compound 17 (3 mg / kg), a combination of cetuximab and compound 17 (3 mg / kg), or a triple therapy. In this study, the dual therapy of WX001 (25 mg / kg BID) + compound 17 (3 mg / kg) significantly prolonged the antitumor effect, indicating a synergistic effect between compound 17 and WX001. In addition, the triple therapy of cetuximab + compound 17, or cetuximab + compound 17 + WX001, both improved event-free survival. Surprisingly, the triple therapy of cetuximab + compound 17 (30 mg / kg) + WX001 (25 mg / kg BID) achieved 100% complete tumor remission, with no tumor recurrence even 30 days after treatment cessation, demonstrating the durable anti-tumor efficacy of the triple therapy. See also Figure 6C -6D.

[0756] Example 3: Evaluation of the antitumor efficacy of ERK 1 / 2 inhibitors combined with KRAS G12C inhibitors in a CR9537 HuPrime® colorectal cancer xenograft mouse model.

[0757] The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vivo efficacy of test compound 17, WX001, and reference compound MRTX849 (adagrasib) as monotherapy and / or in combination with cetuximab in the HuPrime® xenograft model CR9537 derived from colorectal cancer patients.

[0758] Patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models are established from patient tumor tissue. PDX models preserve the original histopathological features and genetic background of the patient's tumor and can be passaged in immunodeficient mice. For these reasons, PDX models are widely used in discovery and translational research, serving as a valuable tool for evaluating the preclinical efficacy of new therapies and providing translational insights into treatment sensitivity.

[0759] Materials and methods:

[0760] The CR9537 PDX model (Crown Biosciences) was established from a biopsy sample of a patient with colorectal cancer exhibiting a KRAS G12C mutation. This patient's disease progressed after first- and second-line chemotherapy, and subsequently participated in a clinical trial of MRTX849. The patient eventually developed resistance to MRTX849 treatment. Genetic analysis of the patient's tumor biopsy revealed an acquired KRAS Q61H mutation, indicating that the resistance mechanism was due to a secondary KRAS mutation. This represents a patient population with limited treatment options and a high level of unmet medical needs. To discover new treatment strategies for this patient population, a patient-led xenograft (PDX) model was established by dissecting tumor biopsy tissue into small tumor fragments with a diameter of 2-3 mm and subcutaneously implanting them into BALB / c nude immunodeficient mice. Tumors that successfully grew in vivo were further passaged and cryopreserved. NGS analysis of this model confirmed both KRAS G12C and KRAS Q61H mutations.

[0761] The table below summarizes the study design, including mouse groups, number of mice in each group, and treatment regimens. Tumor growth was monitored over time after treatment.

[0762] Table E10: Experimental Design and Dosage of the CR9537 Patient-Derived Xenograft (PDX) Model

[0763]

[0764] A total of 66 mice were included in the study. All animals were randomly assigned to 11 study groups, with 6 mice in each group. Randomization was based on the "matched distribution" method (StudyDirector). TMSoftware, version 3.1.399.19). Randomization was performed on day 0. Treatment (Table E10) began on the same day as randomization (day 0). Treatment was initiated when the mean tumor volume reached approximately 145 mm. 3 Treatment began at that time. Tumor growth inhibition (TGI) calculations were based on the first mouse in the solvent group whose tumor volume exceeded 3000 mm². 3 The date on which euthanasia must be performed is a predefined humane endpoint. Treatment lasted for 64 days from the start of grouping (from day 0 to day 63), and the remaining mice were sacrificed on day 63.

[0765] After randomization, the two-dimensional tumor volume was measured twice a week using calipers, and the volume was expressed in mm. 3 The formula is: "V = (L x W x W) / 2, where V is the tumor volume, L is the tumor length (longest tumor size), and W is the tumor width (longest tumor size perpendicular to L). Administration and tumor and weight measurements were performed in a laminar flow hood. Weight and tumor volume were measured using StudyDirector." TM The software (version 3.1.399.19) is used for measurement.

[0766] To compare tumor volumes in different groups on the scheduled date, the Bartlett test was first used to check the hypothesis of homogeneity of variance among all groups.

[0767] When the p-value of Bartlett's test is ≥ 0.05, a one-way ANOVA is performed to test the overall equality of means among all groups. If the p-value of the one-way ANOVA is < 0.05, further post-hoc tests are performed by running the Tukey HSD (honest significance test) for all pairwise comparisons and by running the Dunnett test to compare each treatment group with the solvent group. When the p-value of Bartlett's test is < 0.05, the Kruskal-Wallis test is performed to test the overall equality of medians among all groups. If the p-value of the Kruskal-Wallis test is < 0.05, further post-hoc tests are performed by running the Conover nonparametric test for all pairwise comparisons or for comparing each treatment group with the solvent group, all with one-step p-adjustment.

[0768] For TGI calculations, day 32 was considered the endpoint because, in tumor measurements on day 32, there was one tumor in each of the solvent control group and the cetuximab treatment group with a volume exceeding 3000 mm. 3 This is the predetermined humanitarian endpoint. Tumor volume growth curves from day 0 to day 63 were plotted using Prism GraphPad software, as shown... Figure 7 As shown.

[0769] In addition, pairwise comparisons without multiple comparison correction were performed, and the nominal / uncorrected p-values ​​were reported directly from the Welch t test or the Mann-Whitney U test. Specifically, the Bartlett test was first used to test the hypothesis of homogeneity of variance between the two groups. When the p-value of the Bartlett test was ≥ 0.05, the Welch t test or the Mann-Whitney U test was performed to obtain the nominal p-value.

[0770] All statistical analyses were performed using Ra language and the Statistical Computing and Graphics Environment (version 3.3.1). Unless otherwise stated, all tests were two-tailed, and a p-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

[0771] result:

[0772] This study evaluated the in vivo efficacy of test compound 17 (a KRAS G12C inhibitor from D3 Bio), WX001 (an ERK 1 / 2 inhibitor from D3 Bio), and reference compound MRTX849 (a KRAS G12C inhibitor currently in clinical trials for the treatment of KRAS G12C-mutant colorectal cancer) as monotherapy and / or in combination with cetuximab in the CR9537 colorectal cancer PDX model.

[0773] Reference compound MRTX849 at a dose of 50 mg / kg and test compound 17 at a dose of 50 mg / kg, as single agents, produced statistically significant antitumor efficacy in the subcutaneous xenograft model CR9537, with TGI values ​​of 56.94% and 67.29%, respectively (P<0.05 compared with the solvent control) (Table E12). Figure 7 WX001 at a dose of 50 mg / kg and cetuximab at a dose of 30 mg / kg as monotherapy did not produce significant antitumor efficacy, with TGI values ​​of 51.28% and 17.11%, respectively (P>0.05, relative to solvent control).

[0775]

[0776]

[0777] In the combination therapy group, WX001, in combination with a) MRTX849 and b) compound 17, produced statistically significant antitumor effects in the subcutaneous xenograft model CR9537, with TGI values ​​of 86.56% and 74.19%, respectively (P<0.001, relative to the solvent control) (Table E12). Figure 7 This study showed consistently better efficacy than a) cetuximab and MRTX849 (TGI value of 70.26%) and b) cetuximab in combination with compound 17 (TGI value of 72.82%). Specifically, the TGI achieved by the combination of MRTX849 and compound 17 was 23% higher than that achieved by the combination of MRTX849 and cetuximab.

[0778] These results indicate that in patients with acquired secondary KRAS mutations (e.g., KRAS Q61H), the combination of an ERK 1 / 2 inhibitor (e.g., WX001) with a KRAS G12C inhibitor (MRTX849 or compound 17) is more effective than the combination of cetuximab with a KRAS G12C inhibitor. These data provide previously unknown evidence supporting clinical studies of the combination of WX001 and a KRAS G12C inhibitor in patients who previously received KRAS G12C inhibitor therapy and have developed resistance to KRAS G12C inhibitors due to acquired secondary KRAS mutations. Other acquired secondary KRAS mutations may also yield similar beneficial effects.

[0779] Animals exhibited mild to moderate weight loss during treatment. Figure 8 In this study, test compounds 17 and WX001 were well tolerated in mice with tumors.

[0780] Example 4: Evaluation of the antitumor efficacy of ERK 1 / 2 inhibitors combined with KRAS G12C inhibitors in an AMG510-resistant Mia PaCa-2 human pancreatic cancer xenograft mouse model.

[0781] The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vivo antitumor effects of MRTX849, compound 17, and WX001 in a subcutaneous AMG510-R-xMia PaCa-2 clone #2 xenograft model in female BALB / c nude mice. AMG510-R-xMIA PaCa-2 clone #2 is a monoclonal cell line selected from the AMG510-R-xMiaPaCa-2 (CP2) cell population. This cell line originated from AMG510-R-MIA PaCa-2 (CP2) resistant tumors induced by continuous AMG-510 administration in a MIA PaCa-2 human pancreatic cancer xenograft model. KRAS gene amplification was identified in AMG510-R-xMIA PaCa-2 clone #2 by RNA-seq and WES analysis.

[0782] Materials and methods:

[0783] AMG510-R-xMia PaCa-2 (CP2) clone #2 tumor cells were cultured in DMEM / F12 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum, 1% antibiotic antifungal agent, and 1 µM AMG510 at an incubator temperature of 37°C. o C, with an atmospheric CO2 concentration of 5%. Tumor cells were routinely passaged twice a week using trypsin-EDTA treatment. Cells in the exponential growth phase were harvested, counted, and used for tumor inoculation.

[0784] Female BALB / c nude mice were subcutaneously inoculated on the right side with tumor cells containing AMG510-R-xMia PaCa-2 (CP2) clone #2 (1 x 10⁻⁶ cells). 6 0.2 mL of PBS and Matrigel were administered to promote tumor growth. When the average tumor size reached approximately 128 mm... 3 Treatment began at the designated time. Animals were randomly assigned to eight groups using Excel-based randomization software, stratified according to tumor volume. Each group consisted of eight tumor-bearing mice. The test product was administered to mice according to the predetermined protocol shown in Table E13. The dosage was adjusted according to body weight (10 µL / g).

[0786]

[0787] The primary endpoint was to observe whether tumor growth could be slowed or whether the mice could be cured. The two-dimensional dimensions of the tumor were measured twice weekly using calipers and expressed in mm using a formula. 3 Volume: V = 0.5 axb2 Where a and b are the long and short diameters of the tumor, respectively. Then, the tumor size is used to calculate the T / C and TGI values. The T / C value is then calculated using the tumor size. T / C (%) = T RTV / C RTV x 100%; T RTV It is the average relative tumor volume in the treatment group, C RTV This is the average relative tumor volume of the control group. The formula for calculating RTV is RTV = V0 n / V0, V0 is the tumor volume on the day treatment begins, V n This refers to the tumor volume on a specific day. For calculating the T / C (%), the T value from the same day should be used. RTV and C RTV .

[0788] The formula for calculating TGI for each group is: TGI (%) = [1-(T i -T0) / (V i -V0)] ×100;T i V represents the average tumor volume of the treatment group on a certain day, T0 represents the average tumor volume of the treatment group on day 1 of treatment, and V i To be with T i The average tumor volume of the solvent control group on the same day, V0 is the average tumor volume of the solvent group on day 1 of treatment.

[0789] Another endpoint of the study was animal survival. Animals whose condition deteriorated and were dying (weight loss >20%), as well as those unable to consume sufficient food or water, were euthanized. In addition to euthanasia and death, survival time was de...
