[0003] Mutations affecting either the intracellular catalytic domain or extracellular ligand binding domain of an ErbB receptor can generate oncogenic activity (the ErbB protein family consists of 4 members including ErbB-1, also named epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and Erb-2, also named HER2 in humans). ErbB inhibitors are a known treatment for a number of cancers. However, not every patient responds satisfactorily to this treatment. Thus, there is a long-felt need in the art for new therapies that are able to address the variable responsiveness of cancer patients to known therapies. The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for preventing or treating cancer in patients with these oncogenic mutations without the variable responsiveness observed when patients having these ErbB mutants are treated using the existing standard of care.

Definitions
[0248] It will be understood that while compounds disclosed herein may be presented in one particular configuration. Such particular configuration is not to be construed as limiting the disclosure to one or another isomer, tautomer, regioisomer or stereoisomer, nor does it exclude mixtures of isomers, tautomers, regioisomers or stereoisomers. In some embodiments, the presentation of a compound herein in a particular configuration intends to encompass, and toAttorney Docket No. ASET-044 / 001WO 325190-2251 refer to, each of the available isomers, tautomers, regioisomers, and stereoisomers of the compound, or any mixture thereof; while the presentation further intends to refer to the specific configuration of the compound.
[0249] Further, it will be understood that while compounds disclosed herein may be presented without specified configuration (e.g., without specified stereochemistry). Such presentation intends to encompass all available isomers, tautomers, regioisomers, and stereoisomers of the compound. In some embodiments, the presentation of a compound herein without specified configuration intends to refer to each of the available isomers, tautomers, regioisomers, and stereoisomers of the compound, or any mixture thereof.
[0250] As used herein, the term “isomerism” means compounds that have identical molecular formulae but differ in the sequence of bonding of their atoms or in the arrangement of their atoms in space. Isomers that differ in the arrangement of their atoms in space are termed “stereoisomers.” Stereoisomers that are not mirror images of one another are termed “diastereoisomers,” and stereoisomers that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other are termed “enantiomers” or sometimes optical isomers. A mixture containing equal amounts of individual enantiomeric forms of opposite chirality is termed a “racemic mixture.”
[0251] As used herein, the term “chiral centre” refers to a carbon atom bonded to four nonidentical substituents.
[0252] As used herein, the term “chiral isomer” means a compound with at least one chiral centre. Compounds with more than one chiral centre may exist either as an individual diastereomer or as a mixture of diastereomers, termed “diastereomeric mixture.” When one chiral centre is present, a stereoisomer may be characterised by the absolute configuration (R or S) of that chiral centre. Absolute configuration refers to the arrangement in space of the substituents attached to the chiral centre. The substituents attached to the chiral centre under consideration are ranked in accordance with the Sequence Rule of Cahn, Ingold and Prelog. (Cahn et al., Angew. Chem. Inter. Edit. 1966, 5, 385; errata 511; Cahn et al., Angew. Chem. 1966, 78, 413; Cahn and Ingold, J. Chem. Soc.1951 (London), 612; Cahn et al., Experientia 1956, 12, 81; Cahn, J. Chem. Educ.1964, 41, 116).
[0253] As used herein, the term “geometric isomer” means the diastereomers that owe their existence to hindered rotation about double bonds or a cycloalkyl linker (e.g., 1,3-cyclobutyl). These configurations are differentiated in their names by the prefixes cis and trans, or Z and E, which indicate that the groups are on the same or opposite side of the double bond in the molecule according to the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog rules.
[0254] The terms “nucleic acid” and “polynucleotide” are used interchangeably herein to referAttorney Docket No. ASET-044 / 001WO 325190-2251 to single- or double-stranded RNA, DNA, or mixed polymers. Polynucleotides may include genomic sequences, extra-genomic and plasmid sequences, and smaller engineered gene segments that express, or may be adapted to express polypeptides.
[0255] An “isolated nucleic acid” is a nucleic acid that is substantially separated from other genome DNA sequences as well as proteins or complexes such as ribosomes and polymerases, which naturally accompany a native sequence. The term embraces a nucleic acid sequence that has been removed from its naturally occurring environment, and includes recombinant or cloned DNA isolates and chemically synthesized analogues or analogues biologically synthesized by heterologous systems. A substantially pure nucleic acid includes isolated forms of the nucleic acid. Of course, this refers to the nucleic acid as originally isolated and does not exclude genes or sequences later added to the isolated nucleic acid by the hand of man.
[0256] The term “polypeptide” is used in its conventional meaning, i.e., as a sequence of amino acids. The polypeptides are not limited to a specific length of the product. Peptides, oligopeptides, and proteins are included within the definition of polypeptide, and such terms may be used interchangeably herein unless specifically indicated otherwise. This term also does not refer to or exclude post-expression modifications of the polypeptide, for example, glycosylations, acetylations, phosphorylations and the like, as well as other modifications known in the art, both naturally occurring and non-naturally occurring. A polypeptide may be an entire protein, or a subsequence thereof.
[0257] An “isolated polypeptide” is one that has been identified and separated and / or recovered from a component of its natural environment. In preferred embodiments, the isolated polypeptide will be purified (1) to greater than 95% by weight of polypeptide as determined by the Lowry method, and most preferably more than 99% by weight, (2) to a degree sufficient to obtain at least 15 residues of N-terminal or internal amino acid sequence by use of a spinning cup sequenator, or (3) to homogeneity by SDS-PAGE under reducing or non-reducing conditions using Coomassie blue or, preferably, silver stain. Isolated polypeptide includes the polypeptide in situ within recombinant cells since at least one component of the polypeptide's natural environment will not be present. Ordinarily, however, isolated polypeptide will be prepared by at least one purification step.
[0258] A “native sequence” polynucleotide is one that has the same nucleotide sequence as a polynucleotide derived from nature. A “native sequence” polypeptide is one that has the same amino acid sequence as a polypeptide (e.g. EGFR) derived from nature (e.g., from any species). Such native sequence polynucleotides and polypeptides can be isolated from nature or can be produced by recombinant or synthetic means.Attorney Docket No. ASET-044 / 001WO 325190-2251
[0259] A polynucleotide “variant,” as the term is used herein, is a polynucleotide that typically differs from a polynucleotide specifically disclosed herein in one or more substitutions, deletions, additions and / or insertions.
[0260] A polypeptide “variant,” as the term is used herein, is a polypeptide that typically differs from a polypeptide specifically disclosed herein in one or more substitutions, deletions, additions and / or insertions, or inversions. Such variants may be naturally occurring, non- naturally occurring, or may be synthetically generated.
[0261] EGFR mutations (or variants) of the disclosure may comprise one or more substitutions, deletions, additions and / or insertions, or inversions of the amino acid sequence that are alter the function of the resultant protein. Mutations may be detected, for example, by comparison or alignment of a nucleic or amino acid sequence with a wild type sequence.
[0262] When comparing polynucleotide and polypeptide sequences, two sequences are said to be “identical” if the sequence of nucleotides or amino acids in the two sequences is the same when aligned for maximum correspondence, as described below. Comparisons between two sequences are typically performed by comparing the sequences over a comparison window to identify and compare local regions of sequence similarity. A “comparison window” as used herein, refers to a segment of at least about 20 contiguous positions, usually 30 to about 75, 40 to about 50, in which a sequence may be compared to a reference sequence of the same number of contiguous positions after the two sequences are optimally aligned.
[0263] Optimal alignment of sequences for comparison may be conducted using the Megalign program in the Lasergene suite of bioinformatics software (DNASTAR, Inc., Madison, WI), using default parameters. This program embodies several alignment schemes described in the following references: Dayhoff, M.O. (1978) A model of evolutionary change in proteins – Matrices for detecting distant relationships. In Dayhoff, M.O. (ed.) Atlas of Protein Sequence and Structure, National Biomedical Research Foundation, Washington DC Vol. 5, Suppl. 3, pp. 345-358; Hein J. (1990) Unified Approach to Alignment and Phylogenes pp. 626-645 Methods in Enzymology vol. 183, Academic Press, Inc., San Diego, CA; Higgins, D.G. and Sharp, P.M. (1989) CABIOS 5:151-153; Myers, E.W. and Muller W. (1988) CABIOS 4:11-17; Robinson, E.D. (1971) Comb. Theor 11:105; Santou, N. Nes, M. (1987) Mol. Biol. Evol.4:406- 425; Sneath, P.H.A. and Sokal, R.R. (1973) Numerical Taxonomy – the Principles and Practice of Numerical Taxonomy, Freeman Press, San Francisco, CA; Wilbur, W.J. and Lipman, D.J. (1983) Proc. Natl. Acad., Sci. USA 80:726-730.
[0264] Alternatively, optimal alignment of sequences for comparison may be conducted by the local identity algorithm of Smith and Waterman (1981) Add. APL. Math 2:482, by the identityAttorney Docket No. ASET-044 / 001WO 325190-2251 alignment algorithm of Needleman and Wunsch (1970) J. Mol. Biol.48:443, by the search for similarity methods of Pearson and Lipman (1988) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85: 2444, by computerized implementations of these algorithms (GAP, BESTFIT, BLAST, FASTA, and TFASTA in the Wisconsin Genetics Software Package, Genetics Computer Group (GCG), 575 Science Dr., Madison, WI), or by inspection.
[0265] One preferred example of algorithms that are suitable for determining percent sequence identity and sequence similarity are the BLAST and BLAST 2.0 algorithms, which are described in Altschul et al. (1977) Nucl. Acids Res.25:3389-3402 and Altschul et al. (1990) J. Mol. Biol.215:403-410, respectively. BLAST and BLAST 2.0 can be used, for example with the parameters described herein, to determine percent sequence identity for the polynucleotides and polypeptides of the invention. Software for performing BLAST analyses is publicly available through the National Center for Biotechnology Information.
[0266] In one illustrative example, cumulative scores can be calculated using, for nucleotide sequences, the parameters M (reward score for a pair of matching residues; always >0) and N (penalty score for mismatching residues; always <0). Extension of the word hits in each direction are halted when: the cumulative alignment score falls off by the quantity X from its maximum achieved value; the cumulative score goes to zero or below, due to the accumulation of one or more negative-scoring residue alignments; or the end of either sequence is reached. The BLAST algorithm parameters W, T and X determine the sensitivity and speed of the alignment. The BLASTN program (for nucleotide sequences) uses as defaults a wordlength (W) of 11, and expectation (E) of 10, and the BLOSUM62 scoring matrix (see Henikoff and Henikoff (1989) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 89:10915) alignments, (B) of 50, expectation (E) of 10, M=5, N=-4 and a comparison of both strands.
[0267] For amino acid sequences, a scoring matrix can be used to calculate the cumulative score. Extension of the word hits in each direction are halted when: the cumulative alignment score falls off by the quantity X from its maximum achieved value; the cumulative score goes to zero or below, due to the accumulation of one or more negative-scoring residue alignments; or the end of either sequence is reached. The BLAST algorithm parameters W, T and X determine the sensitivity and speed of the alignment.
[0268] In one approach, the “percentage of sequence identity” is determined by comparing two optimally aligned sequences over a window of comparison of at least 20 positions, wherein the portion of the polynucleotide or polypeptide sequence in the comparison window may comprise additions or deletions (i.e., gaps) of 20 percent or less, usually 5 to 15 percent, or 10 to 12 percent, as compared to the reference sequences (which does not comprise additions orAttorney Docket No. ASET-044 / 001WO 325190-2251 deletions) for optimal alignment of the two sequences. The percentage is calculated by determining the number of positions at which the identical nucleic acid bases or amino acid residues occur in both sequences to yield the number of matched positions, dividing the number of matched positions by the total number of positions in the reference sequence (i.e., the window size) and multiplying the results by 100 to yield the percentage of sequence identity.

EXAMPLES Example 1. Exemplary Study of Compound No.1B
[0303] An open-label, multicenter, Phase 0 / 1 trial of Compound No.1B in patients with EGFR alterations (Arm A) or recurrent rHGG with fusions (Arm B) who are scheduled for resection is performed. As described below, the trial is composed of a Phase 0 and an expansion Phase 1b component. Phase 0 Arms A and B:
[0304] The Phase 0 study includes treatment of recurrent HGG participants with Compound No.1B at ascending dose levels in Arm A.
[0305] To assess the PK and PD endpoints listed, blood, CSF and brain tumor tissue (gadolinium enhancing and non-enhancing tumor tissue will be collected and analyzed separately) are collected intraoperatively on Day 5 post-last Compound No. 1B dose. Additionally, blood samples are obtained on Day 5 at pre-dosing (trough level), 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 24 hours post dose. (Note: 24 h blood sample on Day 6).
[0306] Arm A: Recurrent high-grade glioma participants with EGFR alterations in their archival tissue who are scheduled for resection are enrolled into two-time cohorts (Cohorts 1aAttorney Docket No. ASET-044 / 001WO 325190-2251 and 1b). The final presurgical dose is administered 2-4 hours or 7-9 hours before tumor resection.
[0307] The Optimal Time-Interval (OTI) is the surgical time interval (STI) from final presurgical dose to tumor resection to detect maximal unbound drug concentration in nonenhancing tumor. Once the OTI is determined, additional participants in ascending doses are enrolled at OTI in Arm A, either 2-4 hours or 7-9 hours after the last dose (Cohort 2).
[0308] The dose level for Arm B is selected based on the PK unbound drug concentration in nonenhancing tumor results from Arm A.
[0309] Arm B: Enrollment in Arm B begins after participants have been enrolled in Arm A and Optimal Time Interval (OTI) and optimal dose level has been determined. Recurrent HGG patients (n=10) with EGFR fusion are treated with Compound No. 1B for 5 days prior to surgical resection. Arms A and B: Pharmacokinetic (PK) Analysis
[0310] Total and unbound concentration of Compound No.1B in plasma, tumor enhancing and non-enhancing region as well as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are determined from the study. Tumor-to-plasma ratio is calculated.
[0311] A positive PK response is defined as unbound concentrations of Compound No.1B ≥ 5 x IC50 (18.5 nM) within the gadolinium-non-enhancing region of the tumor. Pharmacodynamics (PD) Analysis
[0312] To assess the PD endpoints, tumor tissue sections are slow freezing and formalin embedded. Formalin Fixed Paraffin Embedded (FFPE) tissue sections are stained for pEGFR and pERK expression using immunohistochemistry (IHC). Additional biomarkers includingAttorney Docket No. ASET-044 / 001WO 325190-2251 pS6, pAKT, ClCas3 and MIB-1 are performed in archival and surgical tumor tissue.
[0313] Retrospective single-cell RNA-seq analysis of tissue from Phase 0 and subsequent resections at recurrence are performed. Phase 1 Expansion Cohort:
[0314] Participants with tumors demonstrating PK-response continue the Expansion Cohort.
[0315] Arm A: Participants with tumors demonstrating PK response continue treatment with the same dose continuously in 28-day cycles after surgery. Participants receive Compound No. 1B until the progression of disease, unacceptable toxicity or death, withdrawal of consent, loss to follow-up, or study termination by sponsor.
[0316] Arm B: Patients with tumors that have a PK response in the Phase 0 component enter the therapeutic expansion phase of this study and receive Compound No.1B until progression of disease, unacceptable toxicity or death, withdrawal of consent, loss to follow-up, or study termination by sponsor.
