Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to combination therapies useful for treating cancer. In particular, the present invention relates to therapeutically effective combinations of compounds that inhibit son of sevenless homolog 1 (SOS1) GTP-mediated nucleotide exchange (SOS1 inhibitors) and KRas G12D inhibitors, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the inhibitors, kits comprising the compositions, and methods of use thereof. [Background technology]
[0002] Kirsten rat sarcoma 2 viral oncogene homolog ("KRas") is a small GTPase and a member of the Ras family of oncogenes. KRas functions as a molecular switch that cycles between inactive (GDP-bound) and active (GTP-bound) states, transforming upstream cellular signals received from multiple tyrosine kinases into downstream effectors that regulate a wide variety of processes, including cell proliferation (see, e.g., Alamgeer et al., (2013) Current Opin Pharmcol. 13:394-401).
[0003] The role of activated KRas in malignancies was observed more than 30 years ago (see, e.g., Der et al., (1982) Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. USA 79(11):3637-3640). Aberrant expression of KRas accounts for up to 20% of all cancers, and oncogenic KRas mutations that stabilize GTP binding and lead to constitutive activation and downstream signaling of KRas have been reported in 25-30% of lung adenocarcinomas (see, e.g., Samatar and Poulikakos (2014) Nat Rev Drug Disc 13(12):928-942 doi:10.1038 / nrd428). Single nucleotide substitutions resulting in missense mutations at codons 12 and 13 of the KRas primary amino acid sequence constitute approximately 33% of these KRas driver mutations in lung adenocarcinoma, with the G12D mutation being a common activating mutation (see, e.g., Li, Balmain and Counter, (2018) Nat Rev Cancer Dec; 18(12): 767-777; Sanchez-Vega, et al, (2018) Cell; 173, 321-337).
[0004] The well-known role of KRas in malignancies and the discovery of these frequent mutations in KRas in various tumor types have made KRas a highly attractive target for the pharmaceutical industry for cancer therapy. Despite 30 years of extensive discovery efforts to develop inhibitors of KRas to treat cancer, only a single KRas G12C inhibitor (KRas G12C inhibitor sotorasib) has demonstrated sufficient safety and / or efficacy to gain regulatory approval (see, e.g., FDA Approves First KRAS Inhibitor: Sotorasib. [No authors listed] Cancer Discov. 2021 Aug;11(8):OF4. doi:10.1158 / 2159-8290. CD-NB2021-0362. Epub 2021 Jun 22). To date, no KRas G12D inhibitor has demonstrated sufficient safety and / or efficacy to gain regulatory approval.
[0005] Compounds that inhibit KRas activity remain highly desirable, including those that disrupt effectors such as guanine nucleotide exchange factors (see, e.g., Sun et al., (2012) Agnew Chem Int Ed Engl. 51(25):6140-6143 doi:10.1002 / anie201201358) and those that target KRas G12D (see, e.g., K-Ras(G12D) Has a Potential Allosteric Small Molecule Binding Site, Feng H, Zhang Y, Bos PH, Chambers JM, Dupont MM, Stockwell BR, Biochemistry, 2019 May 28;58(21):2542-2554. doi:10.1021 / acs.biochem.8b01300. Epub 2019 May 14, and Second harmonic generation detection of Ras conformational changes and discovery of a small molecular binder, Donohue E, Khorsand S, Mercado G, Varney KM, Wilder PT, Yu W, MacKerell AD Jr, Alexander P, Van QN, Moree B, Stephen AG, Weber DJ, Salafsky J, McCormick F., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 2019 Aug 27;116(35):17290-17297, doi:10.1073 / pnas.1905516116. Epub 2019 Aug 9) and are under investigation. Clearly, there remains a continuing interest and effort to develop inhibitors of KRas, particularly inhibitors of activated KRas mutants, including KRas G12D.
[0006] The KRas G12D inhibitors disclosed herein are potent inhibitors of KRas G12D signaling and exhibit single-agent activity in inhibiting the in vitro proliferation of cell lines with KRas G12D mutations, although the relative potency and / or maximum observed effect of any given KRas G12D inhibitor may vary between KRAS mutant cell lines. The range of potency and the reason(s) for the maximum observed effect are not fully understood, although certain cell lines appear to have different inherent resistance. Thus, there is a need to develop alternative approaches to maximize the potency, efficacy, therapeutic index, and / or clinical benefit of KRas G12D inhibitors in vitro and in vivo.
[0007] The combination therapy of the present invention, in one aspect, synergistically increases the potency of the KRas G12D inhibitor, resulting in improved efficacy of the KRas G12D inhibitors disclosed herein.The combination therapy of the present invention, in another aspect, provides patients with improved clinical benefit compared to treatment with the KRas G12D inhibitors disclosed herein as single agents.
[0008] SOS-1 inhibitors The Ras family includes v-Ki-ras2 Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS), neuroblastoma RAS viral oncogene homolog (NRAS), and Harvey murine sarcoma viral oncogene (HRAS), and critically regulates cell division, proliferation, and function in normal and altered conditions, including cancer (see, e.g., Simanshu et al. Cell, 2017.170(1):p.17-33; Matikas et al., Crit Rev Oncol Hematol, 2017.110:p.1-12). RAS proteins are activated by upstream signals, including receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), and transmit signals to several downstream signaling pathways, such as the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) / extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway. Hyperactivation of RAS signaling is frequently observed in cancer, as a result of mutations or alterations in the RAS gene or other genes in the RAS pathway. Identification of strategies to inhibit RAS and RAS signaling is predicted to be useful in the treatment of cancer and disease conditions regulated by RAS.
[0009] RAS proteins are guanosine triphosphate (GTPase) enzymes that cycle between an inactive guanosine diphosphate (GDP)-bound state and an active guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-bound state. Son of Sevenless homolog 1 (SOS1) is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) that mediates the exchange of GDP for GTP, thereby activating RAS proteins. RAS proteins hydrolyze GTP to GDP through intrinsic GTPase activity that is greatly enhanced by GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs). This regulation through GAPs and GEFs is a mechanism by which activation and deactivation are tightly regulated under normal conditions. Mutations at several residues in all three RAS proteins are frequently observed in cancer, and these mutations cause RAS to remain predominantly in an activated state (Sanchez-Vega et al., Cell, 2018.173: p.321-337; Li et al., Nature Reviews Cancer, 2018.18: p.767-777). Mutations at codons 12 and 13 are the most frequently mutated RAS residues, preventing GAP-stimulated GTP hydrolysis by blocking the interaction of GAP proteins with RAS. However, recent biochemical analyses have demonstrated that these mutant proteins still require nucleotide cycling for activation based on their intrinsic GTPase activity and / or partial sensitivity to exogenous GTPases. Thus, mutant RAS proteins are sensitive to inhibition of upstream factors such as SOS1 or SHP2, another upstream signaling molecule required for RAS activation (Hillig, 2019; Patricelli, 2016; Lito, 2016; Nichols, 2018).
[0010] Three major RAS-GEF families have been identified in mammalian cells: SOS, RAS-GRF, and RAS-GRP (Rojas, 2011). While RAS-GRF and RAS-GRP are expressed in central nervous system cells and hematopoietic cells, respectively, the SOS family is expressed ubiquitously and is involved in RTK signaling. The SOS family includes SOS1 and SOS2, which share approximately 70% sequence identity. SOS1 appears to be much more active than SOS2 due to the rapid degradation of SOS2. Mouse SOS2 knockouts are viable, whereas SOS1 knockouts are embryonic lethal. A tamoxifen-inducible SOS1 knockout mouse model was used to investigate the role of SOS1 and SOS2 in adult mice, demonstrating that SOS1 knockouts were viable, whereas SOS1 / 2 double knockouts were non-viable (Baltanas, 2013), suggesting functional redundancy and that selective inhibition of SOS1 may have a sufficient therapeutic index for the treatment of SOS1-RAS activated diseases.
[0011] SOS proteins are recruited to phosphorylated RTKs through interactions with growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 (GRB2). Recruitment to the plasma membrane places SOS in close proximity to RAS, allowing SOS-mediated RAS activation. SOS proteins bind to RAS through a binding site that promotes nucleotide exchange and an allosteric site that binds GTP-bound RAS family proteins to enhance SOS function (Freedman et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci, USA 2006.103(45):p.16692-97). Binding to the allosteric site is required for nucleotide exchange, as it relieves steric blockage of the RAS substrate binding site. Retention of the active conformation at the catalytic site after interaction with the allosteric site is maintained in isolation by enhanced interactions of key domains in the active state. SOS1 mutations are found in Noonan syndrome and several cancers, including lung adenocarcinoma, embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma, Sertoli cell seminoma, and cutaneous granular cell tumor (see, e.g., Denayer, E., et al, Genes Chromosomes Cancer, 2010.49(3):p.242-52).
[0012] GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs) are proteins that stimulate the low intrinsic GTPase activity of RAS family members, thus converting active GTP-bound RAS proteins into inactive GDP-bound RAS proteins (see, e.g., Simanshu, DK, Cell, 2017, Ras Proteins and their Regulators in Human Disease). While activating changes in the GEF SOS1 occur in cancer, inactivating mutations and loss-of-function changes in the GAPs neurofibromin 1 (NF-1) or neurofibromin 2 (NF-2) also occur, creating a condition in which SOS1 activity is unopposed and downstream activity of pathways mediated by RAS proteins is elevated.
[0013] BI-I-13 (also known as BI-3406) is a SOS1::pan-KRAS inhibitor that blocks KRAS regardless of mutation type. Its structure is described in CAS number 2230836-55-0. BI-3406, a Potent and Selective SOS1-KRAS Interaction Inhibitor, Is Effective in KRAS-Driven Cancers through Combined MEK Inhibition, Hofman M, Gmachl M, Ramharter J, Savarese F, et al, Cancer Discovery, 2021 January doi:10.1158 / 2159-8290.

[0062] As used herein, a "therapeutically effective amount" of two compounds is an amount that synergistically increases the activity of the combination together, i.e., beyond merely additive, compared to the therapeutically effective amount of each compound in the combination. Alternatively, in vivo, a combination of a therapeutically effective amount of an SOS1 inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, and a KRas G12D inhibitor compound of formula (I), or a pharma-ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, results in an increased overall survival ("OS") in a subject compared to treatment with a KRas G12D inhibitor alone. In one embodiment, a combination of a therapeutically effective amount of an SOS1 inhibitor, or a pharma-ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, and a KRas G12D inhibitor compound of formula (I), or a pharma-ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, results in an increased progression-free survival ("PFS") in a subject compared to treatment with a KRas G12D inhibitor alone. In one embodiment, the combination of a therapeutically effective amount of an SOS1 inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, and a KRas G12D inhibitor compound of formula (I), or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, results in increased tumor regression in a subject compared to treatment with a KRas G12D inhibitor alone. In one embodiment, the combination of a therapeutically effective amount of an SOS1 inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, and a KRas G12D inhibitor compound of formula (I), or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, results in increased tumor growth inhibition in a subject compared to treatment with a KRas G12D inhibitor alone. In one embodiment, the combination of a therapeutically effective amount of an SOS1 inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, and a KRas G12D inhibitor compound of formula (I), or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, results in improved stable disease duration in a subject compared to treatment with a KRas G12D inhibitor alone. The amount of each compound in the combination may be the same or different from the therapeutically effective amount of each compound when administered alone as a monotherapy, so long as the combination is synergistic. Such amounts may be administered as a single dosage or may be administered according to a regimen whereby it is effective.
[0063] As used herein, treatment refers to any manner in which the symptoms or pathology of a condition, disorder, or disease are alleviated or otherwise beneficially altered. Treatment also includes any pharmaceutical use of the compositions herein.
[0064] As used herein, alleviation of symptoms of a particular disorder by administration of a particular pharmaceutical composition refers to any relief, whether permanent or temporary, persistent or transient, that can result from or be associated with administration of the composition.
[0065] As used herein, the term "about" when used to modify a numerically defined parameter (e.g., the dose of a KRAS inhibitor or SOS1 inhibitor or its pharma- ceutically acceptable salt, or the length of treatment time with a combination therapy described herein), means that the parameter may vary up to 10% below or above the numerical value stated for that parameter. For example, a dose of about 5 mg / kg may vary between 4.5 mg / kg and 5.5 mg / kg. When used at the beginning of a list of parameters, "about" is meant to modify the respective parameter. For example, about 0.5 mg, 0.75 mg, or 1.0 mg means about 0.5 mg, about 0.75 mg, or about 1.0 mg. Similarly, about 5% or more, 10% or more, 15% or more, 20% or more, and 25% or more means about 5% or more, about 10% or more, about 15% or more, about 20% or more, and about 25% or more.

In certain embodiments, the SOS1 inhibitor or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof, and the KRas G12D inhibitor or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof are administered intravenously in a hospital environment. In one embodiment, administration can be by oral route.
[0084] The characteristics of the carrier will depend on the route of administration. As used herein, the term "pharmaceutical acceptable" refers to a non-toxic material that is compatible with a biological system, such as a cell, cell culture, tissue, or organism, and does not interfere with the effectiveness of the biological activity of the active ingredient(s). Thus, in addition to the inhibitor, the composition may contain diluents, fillers, salts, buffers, stabilizers, solubilizers, and other materials well known in the art. The preparation of pharmaceutical acceptable formulations is described, for example, in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 18th Edition, ed. A. Gennaro, Mack Publishing Co., Easton, Pa., 1990.
[0085] As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to a salt that retains the desired biological activity of the above-identified compound and exhibits minimal or no undesired toxicological effects.Examples of such salts include, but are not limited to, the acid addition salts formed with inorganic acids (e.g., hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, nitric acid, etc.) and the acids formed with organic acids such as acetic acid, oxalic acid, tartaric acid, succinic acid, malic acid, ascorbic acid, benzoic acid, tannic acid, pamoic acid, alginic acid, polyglutamic acid, naphthalenesulfonic acid, naphthalenedisulfonic acid, and polygalacturonic acid. The compounds may also be administered as pharma- ceutically acceptable quaternary salts known to those of skill in the art, including in particular quaternary ammonium salts of the formula -NR+Z-, where R is hydrogen, alkyl, or benzyl, and Z is a counterion that includes chloride, bromide, iodide, -O-alkyl, toluenesulfonate, methylsulfonate, sulfonate, phosphate, or carboxylate (e.g., benzoate, succinate, acetate, glycolate, maleate, malate, citric acid, tartaric acid, ascorbic acid, benzoate, cinnamate, mandelic acid, benzylic acid, and diphenylacetate).
[0086] The active compound is contained in a pharma- ceutically acceptable carrier or diluent in an amount sufficient to deliver a therapeutically effective amount to the patient without causing serious toxic effects to the patient being treated. In one embodiment, the dose of the active compound for all of the above conditions ranges from about 0.01 to 300 mg / kg per day, e.g., 0.1 to 100 mg / kg, and further examples, 0.5 to about 25 mg per kilogram of recipient body weight per day. Typical topical dosages range from 0.01 to 3% weight / weight in a suitable carrier. The effective dosage range of the pharma- ceutically acceptable derivatives can be calculated based on the weight of the parent compound to be delivered. If the derivative is active in itself, the effective dosage can be estimated as above using the weight of the derivative, or by other means known to those skilled in the art.
[0087] A pharmaceutical composition comprising an SOS1 inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, and a KRas G12D inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, may be used in the methods of use described herein.
[0088] Simultaneous administration The SOS1 inhibitor, or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt, and the KRas G12D inhibitor, or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt, can be formulated into separate or individual dosage forms, which can be co-administered one after the other.Another option is that when the route of administration is the same (e.g., oral), the two active compounds can be formulated into a single form for co-administration, but both methods of co-administration are part of the same therapeutic treatment or regimen.
[0089] The pharmaceutical compositions comprising the SOS1 inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof, and / or the KRas G12D inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof, for use in the method may be for simultaneous, separate, or sequential use. In one embodiment, the SOS1 inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered before the administration of the KRas G12D inhibitor compound of formula (I), or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof. In another embodiment, the SOS1 inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered after the administration of the KRas G12D inhibitor compound of formula (I), or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof. In another embodiment, the SOS1 inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered approximately simultaneously with the administration of the KRas G12D inhibitor compound of formula (I), or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof.
[0090] Separate administration of each inhibitor at different times and by different routes may be advantageous in some cases. Thus, the components in the combination, i.e., the KRas G12D inhibitor compound of formula (I), or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof, and the SOS1 inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof, do not necessarily have to be administered essentially simultaneously or in any order.
[0091] Oncology drugs are typically administered at the maximum tolerated dose ("MTD"), which is the highest dose of the drug that does not cause unacceptable side effects. In one embodiment, the KRas G12D inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, and the SOS1 inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, are each administered at their respective MTD. In one embodiment, the KRas G12D inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, is administered at its MTD, and the SOS1 inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, is administered in an amount less than its MTD. In one embodiment, the KRas G12D inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, is administered in an amount less than its MTD, and the SOS1 inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, is administered at its MTD. In one embodiment, the KRas G12D inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, and the SOS1 inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, are each administered below their respective MTDs. Administration can be timed such that the peak pharmacokinetic effect of one compound coincides with the peak pharmacokinetic effect of the other.
[0092] In one embodiment, a single dose of the KRas G12D inhibitor compound of formula (I), or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, is administered per day (i.e., about 24 hours apart) (i.e., QD). In another embodiment, two doses of the KRas G12D inhibitor compound of formula (I), or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, are administered per day (i.e., BID). In another embodiment, three doses of the KRas G12D inhibitor compound of formula (I), or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, are administered per day (i.e., TID).
[0093] In one embodiment, the SOS1 inhibitor, or its pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition, is administered QD. In another embodiment, the SOS1 inhibitor, or its pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition, is administered BID. In another embodiment, the SOS1 inhibitor, or its pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition, of the present invention, is administered TID.
[0094] In one embodiment, the KRas G12D inhibitor compound of formula (I), or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, and the SOS1 inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, are each administered once daily.

[0114] Those skilled in the art will recognize that both in vivo and in vitro testing using suitable, known and generally accepted cellular and / or animal models are predictive of the ability of a test compound or combination to treat or prevent a given disorder.
[0115] One of ordinary skill in the art will further recognize that human clinical trials, including first-in-human, dose ranging and efficacy studies in healthy patients and / or patients suffering from a given disorder, can be completed according to methods well known in the clinical and medical arts.
[0116] Synergy In one embodiment, the addition of an SOS1 inhibitor, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, synergistically increases the activity of a KRas G12D inhibitor compound of formula (I), or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, against a cancer or cancer cell line expressing KRas G12D.Any method for determining whether two compounds exhibit synergy can be used to determine the synergistic effect of the combination.
[0117] Several mathematical models have been developed to determine if two compounds act synergistically, ie, have more than merely additive effects. For example, Loewe additivity (Loewe (1928) Physiol. 27:47-187), Bliss independence (Bliss (1939) Ann. Appl. Biol. 26:585-615), Highest Single Agent, ZIP (Yadav et al (2015) Comput Struct Biotech J 13:504-513), and other models (Chou & Talalay (1984) Adv Enzyme Regul 22:27-55. #6382953, and Greco et al. (1995) Pharmacol Rev 47(2):331-85. #7568331) are well known models in the pharmaceutical industry and can be used to calculate a "synergy score" indicating whether synergy has been detected and the magnitude of such synergy. These synergy scores are combined to generate a composite synergy score that can be used to evaluate and characterize KRas G12D inhibitor compounds of formula (I) in combination with SOS1 inhibitors.
[0118] In general, the mathematical model uses data obtained from the single agent values to determine the predicted additive effect of the combination, which is compared to the observed effect for the combination. If the observed effect is greater than the predicted effect, the combination is considered to be synergistic. For example, the Bliss independence model uses the observed combination response (Y O ) to the predicted combination response (Y P ) compared to Y O Y P If it is greater than , it is declared synergistic.
[0119] In some embodiments, "synergistic effect" as used herein refers to a combination of a KRAS inhibitor or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a SOS1 inhibitor or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof, that results in an effect, e.g., any beneficial or desirable result, including a clinical outcome or endpoint described herein, that is greater than the sum of the effects observed when the compound of formula I or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof (e.g., a compound selected from compound numbers 1-458 numbered in WO2021 / 041671) and the SOS1 inhibitor or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof, are administered alone. In one embodiment, the KRas G12D inhibitor is a compound selected from compound numbers 1-458 (numbered in WO2021 / 041671), or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof (e.g., Example Nos. 252, 243, 246, 251, 253, 259, or 282, or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof). In one embodiment, the SOS1 inhibitor is BI-3406. In one embodiment, the therapeutic combination comprises therapeutically effective amounts of Example No. 252 and BI-3406. In one embodiment, the therapeutic combination comprises therapeutically effective amounts of Example No. 243 and BI-3406.

EXAMPLES
[0126] Example A SOS1 inhibitors synergistically increase the activity of KRas G12D inhibitors against KRas G12D-expressing cell lines This example demonstrates that the combination of an exemplary KRas G12D inhibitor compound of Formula I (i.e., MRTX1133) and an SOS1 inhibitor synergistically inhibits the growth of tumor cell lines expressing KRas G12D.
[0127] A panel of colon, pancreatic, lung, gastric, and endometrial cell lines harboring the KRas G12D mutation was assembled to determine whether combining an SOS1 inhibitor with the exemplary KRas G12D inhibitors disclosed herein would result in synergistic activity. The populations included SNU61 (colon, KCLB#00061), LS180 (colon, ATCC#CL-187), Panc 05.04 (pancreatic, ATCC#CRL-25 ... 02.03 (pancreas ATCC #CRL-2553), SNU-407 (colon, AddexBio #C0009016), LS513 (colon, ATCC #CRL-213) 4), A427 (lung, ATCC #HTB-53), HPAC (pancreas, ATCC #CRL-2119), AGS (stomach, ATCC #CRL-1739), SNU-119 7 (colon, KCLB#01197.1), SNU-1033 (colon, KCLB#01033), SNU-410 (pancreas, KCLB#00410), HEC-1-B( Endometrium, ATCC#HTB-113), SU.86.86 (pancreas, ATCC#CRL-1837), SNU-C2B (colon, ATCC#CCL-250), Panc These included 08.13 (pancreas, ATCC#CRL-2551), SUIT-2 (pancreas, JCRB #JCRB1094), HPAF-II (pancreas, ATCC#CRL-1997), Panc 04.03 (pancreas, ATCC#CRL-2555), Panc 1005 (pancreas, ATCC#CRL-2547), HCC-1588 (lung, KCLB#71588), GP2D (colon, SigmaAldrich#95090714), AsPC-1 (pancreas, ATCC CRL-1682), and SW 1990 (pancreas, ATCC CRL-2172).
[0128] Assays to determine synergy scores for pairwise combinations for each cell line were performed in triplicate. Three 96-well plates for determining baseline luminescence and an additional 4 wells of separate 96-well control plates were seeded with 2000 cells / well of a particular cell line in a total volume of 90 μl of growth medium appropriate for that cell line, e.g., RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 10% FBS and any cell line-specific reagents required for growth. Plates were incubated overnight at 37° C. in a 5% CO2 atmosphere.
[0129] For each of the designated baseline wells, 30 μl of Cell-Titer Glo reagent (CTG, Promega Corporation) was added to each well and the plate was incubated for 20 minutes with shaking at room temperature. Baseline luminescence was quantified using a BMG ClarioStar multimode plate reader according to the manufacturer's instructions.
[0130] A series of working stock 1000x drug dilutions in 100% DMSO were prepared, including 8-point single agent dilutions of MRTX1133 and 5-point single agent dilutions of SOS1 inhibitors. The dilutions used for MRTX1133 and SOS1 inhibitors varied for each individual compound but ranged from 3-6x / serial dilution.
[0131] Ten-fold intermediate dose plates were prepared in serum-free RPMI medium containing arrayed single agent dilutions of MRTX1133 or SOS1 inhibitor. In addition, a matrix of 40 dilution combinations of MRTX1133 and SOS1 inhibitor were prepared as test samples.
[0132] To each corresponding well of three 96-well plates seeded with the appropriate cell lines above, 10 μl of each of the 40 combinations of 10x single agents and dose matrix was added and the plates were incubated for 72 hours at 37 C in a 5% CO2 atmosphere. A 30 μl aliquot of Cell-Titer Glo reagent (CTG) was added to each test well, the plates were incubated for 20 minutes with shaking at room temperature and luminescence was quantified using a BMG ClarioStar multimode plate reader according to the manufacturer's instructions.
[0133] Using the raw data and metadata files as input files, percent effect for each treatment condition was calculated and analyzed using four independent mathematical reference models designed to determine if two test compounds exhibit synergy: Loewe additivity, Bliss independence, Highest Single Agent, and ZIP.
[0134] The data output from each mathematical model is the assignment of a relative synergy score. The data reported in Table 1 are the Loewe additivity, Bliss independence, Highest Single Agent, and the sum of the ZIP scores (the "Composite Synergy Score"). [Table 1]
[0135] A custom R script was written integrating open source Bioconductor packages to batch process metadata files containing experimental parameters and raw data files. A variety of numerical and graphical outputs were generated to summarize the data. Single drug parameters were generated using GRmetrics Clark N, Hafner M, Kouril M, Muhlich J, Niepel M, Williams E, Sorger P, Medvedovic M(2016).“GRcalculator:an online tool for calculating and mining drug response data.”doi:10.6084 / m9.figshare.4244408.v1,http: / / www.grcalculator.org / .
[0136] The SynergyFinder package was used to determine if two test compounds exhibited synergy using four independent mathematical reference models (Loewe additivity, Bliss independence, Highest Single Agent, and ZIP) (He L et al) https: / / bioconductor.statistik.tu-dortmund.de / packages / 3.6 / bioc / vignettes / synergyfinder / inst / doc / synergyfinder.pdf
[0137] A combined score of 22-80 was interpreted as a synergistic hit, while a combined score of 11-21 indicated an additive effect and a score of <0-10 indicated no benefit. These results demonstrate that certain members of the panel of KRas G12D cell lines exhibited synergistic effects for combinations of SOS1 inhibitors and MRTX1133, justifying further investigation into combination efficacy testing in in vivo models.
[0138] Example B In vivo model to investigate KRas G12D inhibitor-SOS1 inhibitor combinations Immunodeficient nude / nude mice are inoculated with Panc 02.03 cells carrying the KRas G12D mutation in the right hind flank. Tumor volumes of approximately 300 mm 3 When the tumors reached a size of 100 mm, the mice were divided into four groups of 5 mice each. The first group received vehicle twice daily. The second group received a single dose of the KRas G12D inhibitor twice daily for 2 consecutive days, followed by a 5-day rest period, at a concentration that resulted in a maximal or submaximal biological effect, depending on the cell line and the single agent activity, that did not result in complete tumor regression. The third group received a single dose of the SOS1 inhibitor twice daily at a concentration that resulted in a maximal or submaximal biological effect, depending on the cell line and the single agent activity, that also did not result in complete tumor regression. The fourth group received a single dose of the KRas G12D inhibitor, in combination with a single dose of the SOS1 inhibitor, using a schedule of twice daily for 2 consecutive days, followed by a 5-day rest period. The treatment period was 22 days. Tumor volumes are measured using calipers every 2-3 days, and tumor volume is calculated by the following formula: 0.5 x (length x width). 2 The greater degree of tumor growth inhibition for the combination in this model demonstrates that combination therapy is more likely to provide clinically significant benefit to treated subjects compared to treatment with a KRas G12D inhibitor alone. Twenty nude / nude mice per study were inoculated with 5 × 106 Panc 02.03 cells in the right hind leg.
[0139] Tumor volume is approximately 300 mm 3 Upon reaching the end of study period (study day 0), five mice in each of the groups were administered vehicle alone (10% Captisol in 50 mM citrate buffer pH 5.0), Kras G12D inhibitor MRTX-'1133 (10% Captisol in 50 mM citrate buffer, pH 5.0) at 30 mg / kg twice daily on a schedule of two consecutive days followed by five days off, BI-3406 (also known as BI-I-13) (5% DMSO 45% PEG400 50% saline) SOS1 inhibitor at 50 mg / kg twice daily, or Kras G12D inhibitor and BI-3406 at 30 mg / kg. Tumor volumes, measured on a given day for five mice per group, were averaged and are reported for Panc 02.03 in Table 2.
[0140] Example C KRas G12D inhibitor MRTX-1133 in combination with an SOS1 inhibitor (Panc0203 TGI-43 pancreatic cancer cell line) Experimental Procedure. Twenty nude / nude mice were inoculated with Panc 02.03 cells in the right hind flank. Tumors grew to approximately 300 mm 3 When the immunization rate reached 100%, four treatment groups were established with 5 mice per group. The results of this study are provided in Table 2. [Table 2]
[0141] As shown in Table 2, administration of MRTX1133 at 30 mg / kg BID (twice daily) as a single agent showed 72% tumor growth inhibition at day 22 (administered twice weekly). Administration of the SOS1 inhibitor BI-3406 (also known as BI-I-13) at 50 mg / kg BID daily as a single agent showed 28% tumor growth inhibition at day 22. The combination of the SOS1 inhibitor BI-3406 and MRTX1133 administered twice weekly resulted in 80% tumor growth inhibition at day 22.
[0142] The results are also shown in FIG.
[0143] Example D KRas G12D inhibitor MRTX-1133 in combination with an SOS1 inhibitor (AsPC-1 pancreatic cancer cell line) Experimental Procedure. Twenty nude / nude mice were inoculated with AsPC-1 cells in the right hind flank. Tumors were approximately 200 mm 3 When the immunization rate reached 100%, four treatment groups were established with 5 mice per group. The results of this study are provided in Table 3. [Table 3]
[0144] As shown in Table 2, administration of MRTX1133 as a single agent at 30 mg / kg BID daily showed 26% tumor regression at day 13. Administration of the SOS1 inhibitor MRTX0902 as a single agent at 50 mg / kg BID daily showed 26% tumor growth inhibition at day 13. The combination of the SOS1 inhibitors MRTX0902 and MRTX1133, each administered twice daily, resulted in 38% tumor growth inhibition at day 13.
