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 agents that disrupt programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) axis signaling ("PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitors") and KRas G12C inhibitors, kits containing 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, cycling between inactive (GDP-bound) and active (GTP-bound) states, transducing upstream cellular signals received from multiple tyrosine kinases to downstream effectors to control various 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 over 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 result in constitutive activation of KRas and downstream signaling 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 comprise approximately 40% of these KRas driver mutations in lung adenocarcinoma, with the G12C transversion being the most common activating mutation (see, e.g., Dogan et al., (2012) Clin Cancer Res. 18(22):6169-6177 doi:10.1158 / 1078-0432.CCR-11-3265, published online September 26, 2012).
[0004] Oncogenic KRas mutations create an immunosuppressive microenvironment that leads to resistance to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy, including anti-PD-1 and anti-PD-L1 inhibitors. Activated KRas has been shown to suppress the expression of interferon regulatory factor 2 (IRF2), which directly suppresses CXCL3 expression. This KRas-mediated suppression of IRF2 leads to increased expression of CXCL3, which binds to CXCR2 on myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and promotes their migration into the tumor microenvironment. The role of KRAS in regulating the immune microenvironment and primary ICB resistance in advanced colorectal cancer has been established. In colorectal cancer, anti-PD-1 resistance in KRAS-expressing tumors can be overcome by forced IRF2 expression or by CXCR2 inhibition. (See, e.g., Liao et al., (2019) Cancer Cell 35:559-572.)
[0005] Furthermore, oncogenic KRas signaling has been shown to promote tumor immune resistance to ICB therapy by stabilizing PD-L1 mRNA through repression of the AU-rich element-binding protein tristetraprolin (TTP), which negatively regulates PD-L1 expression via AU-rich elements in the 3'UTR of PD-L1 mRNA (see, e.g., Coelho et al., (2017) Immunity 47(6):1083-1099).
[0006] Oncogenic KRas has also been shown to impair antigen presentation by suppressing MHC I expression, thereby enabling tumor cells to evade cytotoxic T lymphocytes (see, e.g., El-Jawhari et al., (2014) Molecular Immunology 58(2):160-168), and KRas-activating mutations upregulate IL-8 expression in NSCLC, and IL-8 plays a role in cell growth and migration in KRas-associated NSCLC (see, e.g., Sunaga et al., (2012) Int. J. Cancer 130(8):1733-1744).
[0007] Thus, activated KRas G12C expression regulates many aspects of the immune system and contributes to the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment of KRas G12C-associated tumors. Therefore, direct inhibition of KRas G12C-mediated cellular activity should reverse this reported immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and thereby improve the clinical activity of immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy, including the PD-1 / PD-L1 pathway.
[0008] For all the aforementioned reasons, it is necessary to develop combination therapies using KRas G12C inhibitors and ICB therapy, including anti-PD-1 and anti-PD-L1 inhibitors, to treat KRas G12C-associated cancers that are resistant to ICB therapy.

[0030] definition Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. All patents, patent applications, and publications mentioned herein are incorporated by reference.
[0031] As used herein, "KRas G12C" refers to a mutant form of a mammalian KRas protein that contains an amino acid substitution of cysteine for glycine at amino acid position 12. The amino acid codon and residue position assignments for human KRas are based on the amino acid sequence identified by UniProtKB / Swiss-Prot P01116:Variant p.Gly12Cys.
[0032] As used herein, "KRas G12C inhibitor" refers to a compound of the present invention represented by Formula (I), Formula IA, and Formula IB described herein. These compounds can negatively regulate or inhibit all or part of the enzymatic activity of KRas G12C. The KRas G12C inhibitor of the present invention interacts with KRas G12C and irreversibly binds to it by forming a covalent adduct with the sulfhydryl side chain of the cysteine residue at position 12, thereby inhibiting the enzymatic activity of KRas G12C. In one embodiment, the KRas G12C inhibitor is a compound selected from Compound Nos. 1-678 (as numbered in WO2019 / 099524), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof (e.g., Example Nos. 234, 359, 478, or 507, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof).

In some embodiments, a PD-L1 inhibitor is a molecule that inhibits the binding of PD-L1 to its binding partners. In particular aspects, PD-L1 inhibitors inhibit the binding of PD-L1 to PD-1 and / or B7-1. In some embodiments, PD-L1 inhibitors include anti-PD-L1 antibodies, antigen-binding fragments thereof, immunoadhesins, fusion proteins, oligopeptides, and other molecules that reduce, block, inhibit, neutralize, or prevent signaling resulting from the interaction of PD-L1 with one or more of its binding partners, such as PD-1 and / or B7-1.

Such an amount can be administered as a single dose or according to a regimen, whereby it is effective.
[0068] As used herein, a "therapeutically effective amount" of two compounds is an amount that synergistically increases the activity of the combination compared to the therapeutically effective amounts of each compound in the combination. For example, in vivo, a therapeutically effective amount of a combination of a PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor or a pharmaceutical composition thereof and a KRas G12C inhibitor compound of Formula (I), Formula IA, or Formula IB, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, results in a durable complete response in a subject relative to treatment with a KRas G12C inhibitor alone. In one embodiment, a therapeutically effective amount of a combination of a PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor or a pharmaceutical composition thereof and a KRas G12C inhibitor compound of Formula (I), Formula IA, or Formula IB, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, results in an increase in overall survival ("OS") in a subject relative to treatment with a KRas G12C inhibitor alone. In one embodiment, a therapeutically effective amount of a combination of a PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor or pharmaceutical composition thereof and a KRas G12C inhibitor compound of Formula (I), Formula IA, or Formula IB, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, results in an increase in progression-free survival ("PFS") in a subject relative to treatment with a KRas G12C inhibitor alone. In one embodiment, a therapeutically effective amount of a combination of a PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor or pharmaceutical composition thereof and a KRas G12C inhibitor compound of Formula (I), Formula IA, or Formula IB, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, results in an increase in tumor growth regression in a subject relative to treatment with a KRas G12C inhibitor alone. In one embodiment, a therapeutically effective amount of a combination of a PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor or pharmaceutical composition thereof and a KRas G12C inhibitor compound of Formula (I), Formula IA, or Formula IB, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, results in an increase in tumor growth inhibition in a subject relative to treatment with a KRas G12C inhibitor alone.In one embodiment, a therapeutically effective amount of a combination of a PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor or pharmaceutical composition thereof and a KRas G12C inhibitor compound of Formula (I), Formula IA, or Formula IB, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, results in an improvement in stable disease duration in a subject compared to treatment with the KRas G12C inhibitor alone. The amount of each compound in the combination may be the same as or different from the therapeutically effective amount of each compound when administered alone as monotherapy, so long as the combination is synergistic. Such amounts may be administered as a single dose or according to a regimen whereby it is effective.
[0069] As used herein, treatment means any manner in which the symptoms or pathology of a condition, disorder, or disease are ameliorated or otherwise beneficially altered. Treatment also includes any pharmaceutical use of the compositions herein.
[0070] As used herein, amelioration of symptoms of a particular disorder by administration of a particular pharmaceutical combination refers to any relief, permanent or temporary, lasting or transient, that can result from or be associated with administration of the combination.
[0071] As used herein, the term "about" when used to modify a numerically defined parameter (e.g., the dose of a KRAS inhibitor or PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or the length of treatment time with a combination therapy described herein) means that the parameter may vary above or below the numerical value listed for that parameter by as much as 10%. For example, a dose of about 5 mg / kg may vary between 4.5 mg / kg and 5.5 mg / kg. "About" used at the beginning of a list of parameters modifies 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, or about 25% or more.
[0072] Inhibitor Compounds In one aspect of the invention, provided herein is a method of treating cancer in a subject in need thereof, comprising administering to the subject therapeutically effective amounts of a combination of a PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor or a pharmaceutical composition thereof, and a KRAS G12C inhibitor of Formula (I), Formula IA, or Formula IB, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof.
[0073] 1.PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitors Programmed death protein 1 (PD-1) is an immunosuppressive receptor expressed primarily on activated T and B cells. PD-1 is a 55 kDa type I transmembrane protein that is part of the Ig gene superfamily (Agata et al. (1996) Int Immunol 8:765-72). PD-1 contains a membrane-proximal immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM) and a membrane-distal tyrosine-based switch motif (ITSM). Two ligands that bind to PD-1, PD-L1 and PD-L2, have been identified and have been shown to downregulate T cell activation upon binding to PD-1 (Freeman et al. (2000) J Exp Med 192:1027-34). PD-L1 is a ligand for PD-1 and is abundant in various human cancers (Dong et al. (2002) Nat. Med. 8:787-9). The interaction of PD-1 and PD-L1 results in a reduction of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, a decrease in T cell receptor-mediated proliferation, and immune evasion by cancer cells (Dong et al. (2003) J. Mol. Med. 81:281-7).
[0074] Immunosuppression can be reversed by inhibiting the local interaction of PD-1 with PD-L1, and the effect is additive when the interaction of PD-1 with PD-L2 is also blocked. For example, disruption of the PD-1 / PD-L1 interaction has been shown to increase T cell proliferation and cytokine production and block cell cycle progression.
[0075] Given that PD-L1 is upregulated in many cancers and contributes to evasion of the host immune system, blocking the interaction between PD-1 and PD-L1 has attracted the attention of the pharmaceutical industry, leading to a new and innovative class of immune checkpoint therapies for a wide range of cancers. The PD-1 / PD-L1 pathway is a well-validated target for the development of antibody therapeutics for cancer treatment, and several anti-PD-1 and anti-PD-L1 antibodies have undergone human clinical trials for a wide variety of cancers, including NSCLC, renal cell carcinoma, melanoma, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, urothelial carcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, and other cancers. Exemplary anti-PD-1 antibodies include nivolumab (Opdivo®), pembrolizumab (Keytruda®), cemiplimab (Libtayo®), and tislelizumab, as well as their biosimilars. Exemplary anti-PD-L1 antibodies include atezolizumab (Tecentriq®), avelumab (Bavencio®), and durvalumab (Imfinzi®), and their biosimilars.
[0076] Methods for producing agents that disrupt the PD-1 / PD-L1 signaling axis, including the antibodies described herein, are well known to those of skill in the art, and agents that disrupt the PD-1 / PD-L1 signaling axis can be obtained from a wide range of commercial suppliers in formats suitable for both research or approved human clinical use. Additionally, suitable agents that disrupt PD-1 / PD-L1 signaling for use in the compositions and methods disclosed herein, and methods for preparing such agents, as well as diagnostic and efficacy markers useful for monitoring treatment, are described in U.S. Patent Application Publication Nos. 2018 / 0327848, 2018 / 0237524, 2018 / 0148790, 2018 / 0111996, 2016 / 0 305947, 2016 / 0304969, 2016 / 0304606, 2015 / 0232555, 2015 / 0079109, 2014 / 0348743, 2014 / 0294852, 2014 / 0271684, 2014 / 0234296, 2013 / 0133091, 2011 / 0123550, and 2009 / 0217401.

[0089] The PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor and the KRas G12C compound of Formula (I), Formula IA, or Formula IB, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, may be formulated separately into pharmaceutical compositions.
[0090] Pharmaceutical Compositions In another aspect, the present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor according to the present invention and a pharmaceutical composition comprising a KRas G12C inhibitor, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the composition further comprises a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, excipient, or diluent that can be used in the methods disclosed herein. The KRas G12C inhibitor can be independently formulated by any method known in the art and prepared for administration by any route, including, but not limited to, parenteral, oral, sublingual, transdermal, topical, intranasal, intratracheal, intravenous, or rectal. In certain embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition comprising a KRas G12C inhibitor, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or pharmaceutical composition is administered intravenously. In one embodiment, the pharmaceutical composition comprising a KRas G12C inhibitor is administered orally. In one embodiment, a pharmaceutical composition comprising a PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor is administered parenterally, including via subcutaneous, intradermal, intravenous, intramuscular, intra-articular, intra-arterial, intrasynovial, intrasternal, intrathecal, intralesional, and intracranial injection or infusion techniques. In one embodiment, a pharmaceutical composition comprising a PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor is administered intravenously.
[0091] The characteristics of the carrier depend on the route of administration. As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable" refers to a non-toxic material that is compatible with biological systems such as cells, cell cultures, tissues, or organisms, and does not interfere with the effectiveness of the biological activity of the active ingredient(s). Thus, in addition to inhibitors, the composition may contain diluents, fillers, salts, buffers, stabilizers, solubilizers, and other materials well known in the art. The preparation of pharmaceutically acceptable formulations is described, for example, in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 18th Edition, ed. A. Gennaro, Mack Publishing Co., Easton, Pa., 1990.
[0092] As used herein, the term pharmaceutically acceptable salt refers to the salt that maintains the desired biological activity of the compound identified above and exhibits minimal or no undesired toxicological effects.Examples of such salt include but are not limited to the acid addition salt formed with inorganic acid (for example, hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, nitric acid etc.), and the salt formed with organic acid 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 can also be administered as pharmaceutically acceptable quaternary salts known to those of skill in the art, specifically including 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 (such as benzoate, succinate, acetate, glycolate, maleate, malate, citrate, tartrate, ascorbate, benzoate, cinnamate, mandelate, benzilate, and diphenylacetate).
[0093] The active compound or agent is contained in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent in an amount sufficient to deliver a therapeutically effective amount to the patient without causing significant toxic effects to the patient being treated. In one embodiment, the dose of the active compound for all of the above-described compositions of KRas G12C inhibitors ranges from about 0.01 to 300 mg / kg per day, e.g., 0.1 to 100 mg / kg, and as a further example, from 0.5 to about 25 mg per 0.1 kilogram of recipient body weight per day. The effective dosage range of the pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent can be calculated based on the weight of the parent compound to be delivered. If the derivative exhibits activity in itself, the effective dosage can be estimated as described above using the weight of the derivative or by other means known to those skilled in the art.
[0094] The pharmaceutical composition comprising the PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor and the pharmaceutical composition comprising the KRas G12C inhibitor may be used in any of the methods of use described herein.
[0095] Simultaneous administration The components of the pharmaceutical combinations described herein, including a PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor and / or a KRasG12C inhibitor, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for use in any of the methods herein, can be for simultaneous, separate, or sequential use. In one embodiment, the PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor is administered prior to the administration of a KRas G12C inhibitor compound of Formula (I), Formula IA, or Formula IB, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof. In another embodiment, the PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor or pharmaceutical composition thereof is administered after the administration of a KRas G12C inhibitor compound of Formula (I), Formula IA, or Formula IB, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof. In another embodiment, the PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor or pharmaceutical composition thereof is administered approximately simultaneously with the administration of a KRas G12C inhibitor compound of Formula (I), Formula IA, or Formula IB, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof. In one embodiment, the PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor, or a pharmaceutical composition thereof, and the KRas G12C inhibitor, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, may be formulated into separate or individual dosage forms that can be co-administered simultaneously or sequentially.
[0096] Separate administration of each inhibitor at different times and by different routes may be advantageous in some cases. Thus, the components of a combination, i.e., a KRas G12C inhibitor compound of Formula (I), Formula IA, or Formula IB, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or pharmaceutical composition thereof, and a PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor, or a pharmaceutical composition thereof, do not necessarily need to be administered at essentially the same time or in any order.
[0097] Oncology drugs are typically administered at a maximum tolerated dose ("MTD"), which is the highest dose of drug that does not cause unacceptable side effects.

[0137] Example A Engineering the colon cancer cell line CT26.WT to express KRas G12C This example demonstrates that the colon cancer cell line CT26.WT (ATCC CRL-2638) was genetically modified to express KRas G12C, rendering these cells sensitive to targeted therapy using KRas G12C inhibitors of the present invention.
[0138] The CT26.WT cell line is triallelic for the KRas gene (NCBI reference: NM_021284), with each allele carrying a mutation at codon 12 that changes a glycine residue (G) to an aspartic acid residue (D). To generate a CT26.WT cell line derivative carrying a KRas G12C mutation, the G12D codon was changed to a G12C codon using the CRISPR / CAS9 system (Synthego, Redwood City, CA) in the following manner.
[0139] Briefly, a synthetic modified guide RNA (sgRNA) targeting the region near the KRas 12 codon was designed and synthesized based on its high specificity and propensity to create a double-stranded break when complexed with the CAS9 DNA endonuclease. A single-stranded donor oligonucleotide (ssODN) was designed to enable homologous donor repair at the sgRNA cleavage site, introducing the desired cysteine codon (GAT;D to TGT;C) at position 12 while also introducing a silent mutation to prevent re-cleavage.
[0140] The Cas9 / sgRNA riboprotein complex and ssODN were transfected into CT26.WT cells. Single-cell CT26.WT clones were isolated and their genotypes were screened by Sanger DNA sequencing to identify homozygous G12C-targeted clones.
[0141] One particular clone, the KRas G12C CT26.WT E3 clone, was selected for further analysis.
[0142] Example B Inhibition of KRas G12C-dependent cell proliferation This example demonstrates that exemplary compounds of the invention inhibit the growth of an engineered CT26.WT KRas G12C E3 clone that expresses KRas G12C with greater potency than the parental CT26.WT wild-type cell line.
[0143] Cellular inhibition of KRAs G12C by exemplary compounds of the present invention was determined by measuring the amount of intracellular ATP.
[0144] CT26.WT wild-type cells and the CT26.WT G12C E3 clone expressing KRas G12C were cultured in RPMI medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% penicillin / 1% streptomycin and seeded at a density of 1,000 cells / 90 μl / well into 96-well white assay plates. Dose-response curves for compounds of the present invention were determined by adding 10 μl aliquots of various concentrations of compound stock solutions to each well in the same medium over a 10 μM concentration range, using 3-fold dilutions to a final concentration of 1.5 nM. Plates were incubated at 37°C for 3 days, and cell viability was measured on the third day using a CTG assay kit (Cell Titre Glo; Promega catalog number G7573) according to the manufacturer's instructions.
[0145] IC of each cell line on day 3 50 The values were calculated using Graph pad PRISM software and the results are shown in Table 1. [Table 1]
[0146] As shown in Table 1, the CT26.WT cell line expressing KRas G12C was approximately 7-fold more sensitive to inhibition by Example 478 than the isogenic parent wild-type KRas cell line, thereby demonstrating the enhanced sensitivity and specificity of this cell line to the KRas G12C inhibitors of the present invention.
[0147] Example C In vivo model for investigating KRas G12C inhibitors - immune cell regulation This example demonstrates that in vivo administration of a KRas G12C inhibitor, alone or in combination with an anti-PD-1 antibody to CT26.WT KRas G12C E3 clone-bearing animals, results in intratumoral modulation of key immune cell populations.
[0148] BALBc mice were treated with 1 × 10 6CT26.WT KRas G12C E3 cells were inoculated into the right hind flank. Tumor volumes were 200–400 mm 3 When mice reached a size of 0.02 mm (day 0), they were divided into two sets of three groups of 5 mice each. The first group received vehicle (10% Captisol in 50 mM citrate buffer pH 5.0) daily, the second group received a 100 mg / kg oral dose of the KRas G12C inhibitor Example 478 daily for 4 days (day 4), the third group received a 10 mg / kg intraperitoneal dose of a murine anti-PD-1 antibody on days 1, 4, and 7, and the fourth group received a combination of a 100 mg / kg oral dose of the KRas G12C inhibitor Example 478 daily for 4 days and a 10 mg / kg intraperitoneal dose of a murine anti-PD-1 antibody on days 1, 4, and 7.
[0149] Approximately 3 hours after the final dose on day 4, mice were euthanized and tumors were harvested for FACS analysis (MI Bioresearch, Ann Arbor, MI). Individual tumors were homogenized, and viable tumor cells were isolated from the homogenized tumors using 7-AAD Viability dye. Isolated viable cells were separated from cellular debris by centrifugation, washed, and resuspended in ice-cold DPBS medium. 1 × 10 6 Aliquots of cells were transferred to predefined wells in deep-well 96-well plates containing specific fluorescein-tagged antibodies against extracellular and intracellular markers of specific immune cells.
[0150] One plate was designed to quantify the percentage of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, CD69- and PD-1-expressing CD8+ T cells, KI-67+ CD8+ T cells, natural killer (NK) T cells, and CD45+ CD3+ T cells, including regulatory T cells (T-regs). Cell percentages were determined using an Attune NxT Acoustic Focusing Cytometer. The results are shown in Table 2. [Table 2]
[0151] A second plate was designed to quantify the percentage of CD45+CD11+ cells, including myeloid-derived suppressor cells (G-MDSC and M-MDSC), M1 and M2 macrophages, and dendritic cells (DCs). Cell percentages were determined using an Attune NxT Acoustic Focusing Cytometer. Positive and negative control samples were processed in parallel. The results are shown in Table 3. [Table 3]
[0152] After administration of Example 478 at 100 mg / kg for 4 days, numerous differences in immune cell populations in the tumor microenvironment were observed. For example, intratumoral CD45+ cells increased as a percentage of live cells. This increase indicates an active immune tumor microenvironment (TME), as CD45+ cells are not only a marker of hematopoietic cells but also an essential regulator of T cell and B cell antigen receptor-mediated activation (see, e.g., Perrick N. CD45. PathologyOutlines.com website. http: / / www.pathologyoutlines.com / topic / cdmarkerscd45.html). Further increases were observed in CD4 and CD4 helper T cell populations. These immune cell types are most important in stimulating killer T cells, macrophages, and B cells to initiate immune responses. The observed increase in CD8+ immune cells, cytotoxic T cells, leads to effective killing of target cells. In the presence of antigen, CD8+ T cells progress through three stages, initiated by proliferation, then contraction, and finally differentiation into long-lived memory T cells. This increase in CD8-positive immune cells may also represent an early sign of clonal expansion of CD8-positive immune cells, thus providing a mechanism for efficient recognition and killing of current and future cancer cells (e.g., Clambey et al., (2005) Immun Rev 205:170-189). Consistent with the increase in T cells, treatment of tumors with Example 478 caused an increase in CD19-positive cells. This marker, a common B-cell marker, represents a cell type that regulates the development, activation, and differentiation of B cells (e.g., see Otero & Ricket (2003) J. Immunol. 171:5921-5930). Therefore, this increase in B cells can induce high-affinity responses against pathogens and provide the host with protective, long-lived humoral immunity.
[0153] Furthermore, M1 macrophages are first responders to intracellular pathogens and exhibit high levels of phagocytic activity. The observed increase in M1 provides a rationale for increased proinflammatory cytokine signaling, a hallmark of acute inflammatory responses (Atri et al., (2018) Int J Mol Sci 19:1801). MDSCs significantly accumulate during pathological conditions and have been detected in almost all tumor models studied and cancer patients examined (see, for example, Youn & Gabrilovich (2010) Euro J Immunol 40:2969-2975). These conditions not only cause the expansion of MDSC cells but can also lead to their activation, which in turn upregulates many intermediates with potential immunosuppressive activity, such as ROS, iNOS, COX2, and arginase (Youn & Gabrilovich (2010) Euro J Immunol 40:2969-2975).
[0154] The majority of the expanded CD8+ T cell population after treatment with single-agent Example 478 expressed PD-1 (83%) and remained sensitive to inhibition by PD-L1, thereby blocking activation of these T cells; however, after 4 days of combination therapy, PD-1 surface protein expression on CD8+ T cells was blocked by binding of the PD-1 inhibitor (only 1.2% expressed PD-1), thereby preventing these T cells from being suppressed by PD-L1 and allowing these cells to become activated and mount an adaptive anti-tumor response, resulting in durable complete responses in animal models.
[0155] In summary, treatment with the KRas G12C inhibitor of the present invention results in modulation of key immune cell subtypes in the tumor, which may contribute to the overall mechanism of tumor reduction in this model. A notable contribution from treatment with a PD-1 inhibitor was the dramatic reduction in intratumoral PD-1-positive CD8 immune cells. This modulation, as documented with KRas G12C inhibitor treatment alone, suggests that reducing this immune cell population in an already immunologically hot tumor microenvironment may lead to further antitumor activity by removing existing inhibition dictated by the PD-1 / PD-L1 axis signaling pathway.
[0156] Example D In vivo model to investigate the combination of KRas G12C inhibitors plus PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitors BALBc mice were treated with 1 × 10 6 CT26.WT KRas G12C E3 cells were inoculated into the right hind flank, and tumor volume was measured every 2–3 days using a caliper. Tumor volume was calculated using the formula: 0.5 × (length × width). 2 was calculated by
[0157] Tumor volume 200-400mm 3 When mice reached a size of 100 mg / kg (Study Day 0), they were divided into four groups of 5 mice each. The first group received vehicle (10% Captisol in 50 mM citrate buffer pH 5.0) daily until Study Day 15 and also received vehicle (BioXcel diluent) intraperitoneally on Study Days 1, 4, and 7. The second group received a 10 mg / kg intraperitoneal dose of murine anti-PD-1 antibody (F26, BioXcel) daily on Study Days 1, 4, and 7. The third group received a 100 mg / kg dose of the KRas G12C inhibitor Example 478 until Study Day 29. The fourth group received a 100 mg / kg dose of the KRas G12C inhibitor Example 478 daily until Study Day 29, in combination with a 10 mg / kg intraperitoneal dose of the F26 murine anti-PD-1 antibody on Study Days 1, 4, and 7.
[0158] On study day 29, administration of the 100 mg / kg dose of the KRas G12C inhibitor Example 478 was stopped in the single agent and combination groups.
[0159] On study day 39, four tumor-free mice in the combination group received 1 × 10 6 CT26.WT KRas G12C E3 cells were re-challenged into the contralateral left flank and mice were monitored for tumor growth over a 24 day period to determine whether a sustained adaptive immune response was observed.
[0160] Table 4 Tumor volume (mm ) of CT26.WT KRas G12C E3 clone tumor-bearing mice treated with single agents and combinations 3 ) [Table 4] [Table 5] [Table 6] [Table 7]
[0161] As shown in Table 4B, administration of anti-PD-1F26 antibody as a single agent only resulted in a minimum of 19.8% tumor growth inhibition at day 14 compared to vehicle-treated mice.
[0162] As shown in Table 4C, administration of the KRas G12C inhibitor Example 478 as a single agent produced a strong antitumor response, with all five treated mice achieving a complete response after nine days of dosing (study day 9). All five mice remained free of detectable tumors for at least five days; however, tumor growth was eventually detected at the original site of implantation in all five mice, either while still receiving Example 478 daily (three mice, study days 17, 21, and 25) or after dosing was stopped on study day 29 (two mice, study days 44 and 46).
[0163] As shown in Table 4D, coadministration of the anti-PD-1 F26 antibody and the KRas G12C inhibitor Example 478 in combination produced similarly potent anti-tumor responses, with all five treated mice (M1-M5) achieving a complete response after 14 days of dosing (study day 14). Four of the five mice (M1 and M3-M5) remained free of detectable tumors for at least 91 days after dosing with Example 478 was stopped (study day 120). Tumor growth was detected in a single mouse (M2) starting on study day 44, 15 days after dosing with Example 478 was stopped.
[0164] Four of the five mice (M1 and M3–M5) remained tumor-free on study day 39 and were re-challenged with CT26.WT KRas G12C E3 cells in the contralateral left flank. No detectable tumor growth was observed at the original implantation site (R) or the second reimplantation site (L). In contrast, implantation of the same cells into naive mice resulted in tumor formation (data not shown). These results indicated that the combination-treated animals exhibited antitumor immune memory that resulted in a sustained complete response for at least 49 days, demonstrating the superiority of combination therapy in treating KRas G12C-associated cancers and potentially preventing recurrence.
[0165] Tables 5A-5D represent repeats of the studies shown in 4A-4D. In the second study, the number of treated mice was increased from 5 per group to 10 per group.
[0166] Tumor volume 200-400mm 3 When mice reached a size of 100 mg / kg (Study Day 0), they were divided into four groups of 10 mice each. The first group received vehicle (10% Captisol in 50 mM citrate buffer pH 5.0) daily through Study Day 10 and also received vehicle (BioXcel diluent) intraperitoneally on Study Days 1, 4, and 7. The second group received a 10 mg / kg intraperitoneal dose of murine anti-PD-1 antibody (F26, BioXcel) daily on Study Days 1, 4, and 7. The third group received a 100 mg / kg dose of the KRas G12C inhibitor Example 478 through Study Day 25. The fourth group received a 100 mg / kg dose of the KRas G12C inhibitor Example 478 daily through Study Day 25, in combination with a 10 mg / kg intraperitoneal dose of the F26 murine anti-PD-1 antibody on Study Days 1, 4, and 7.
[0167] On study day 25, administration of the 100 mg / kg dose of the KRas G12C inhibitor Example 478 was stopped in the single agent and combination groups.
[0168] On study day 32, seven tumor-free mice in the combination group received 1 × 10 6 The mice were re-challenged with CT26.WT KRas G12C E3 cells in the contralateral left flank and tumor growth in the mice was monitored over a 50-day period to determine whether a sustained adaptive immune response was observed.

[0170] As shown in Table 5C, administration of the KRas G12C inhibitor Example 478 as a single agent produced a strong antitumor response, with all 10 treated mice achieving a complete response after 10 days of dosing (Study Day 10). Nine of the 10 mice remained free of detectable tumors for at least four days after achieving a complete response; however, tumor growth was eventually detected in six of the nine mice at the original site of implantation while receiving Example 478 daily (five mice, Study Days 14 (M2), 17 (M4), and 19 (M1, M3, and M6)) or after dosing was stopped on Study Day 25 (one mouse (M6), Study Day 26). Three mice (M7-M9) remained tumor-free for 6 days after daily administration of Example 478 was stopped (day 31), and one mouse (M10) remained tumor-free for at least 49 days.
[0171] As shown in Table 5D, co-administration of the anti-PD-1 F26 antibody and the KRas G12C inhibitor Example 478 in combination produced a similarly potent anti-tumor response, with 9 of 10 treated mice achieving a complete response after 10 days of dosing (study day 10). Eight mice remained free of detectable tumors for at least 24 days after dosing with Example 478 was stopped (study day 49). Tumor growth was detected in 1 of 8 mice (M3) starting on study day 52.
[0172] Seven of the 10 mice (M1, M4, M5, M6, M8, M9, and M10) remained tumor-free on study day 32 and were re-challenged with CT26.WT KRas G12C E3 cells in the contralateral left flank. No detectable tumor growth was observed at the original implantation site (R) or the second re-implantation site (L) in six of the seven mice. In contrast, transplantation of the same cells into naive mice resulted in tumor formation (data not shown). Tumor formation was detected in a single mouse (M3) at the original implantation site on study day 52; however, no tumor formation was detected at the re-challenge site. These results indicated that the combination-treated animals exhibited antitumor immune memory that resulted in a sustained complete response for at least 50 days, demonstrating the superiority of combination therapy in treating KRas G12C-associated cancers and potentially preventing recurrence.
