Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims the benefit of and priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 484,383, filed February 10, 2023, and U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 505,507, filed June 1, 2023, the disclosures of each of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety for all purposes. [Background technology]

[0002] Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are serine / threonine protein kinases that play a central role in cell cycle progression. CDK levels remain relatively constant throughout the cell cycle, and selective activation of specific CDKs allows for the proper sequencing of steps in cell cycle progression. CDK activation requires heterodimerization with regulatory subunits known as cyclins. Cell cycle deregulation is a common feature of human cancers.

[0003] Cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (Cdk2) is involved in a range of biological activities. CDK2 is a key cell cycle regulator, active throughout late G1 and S phases. CDK2 participates in the DNA damage response (DDR) via the homologous recombination (HR) pathway. CDK2 also regulates aspects of the apoptotic pathway. Cyclin E1 (CCNE1), cyclin E2 (CCNE2), cyclin A1 (CCNA1), and cyclin A2 (CCNA2), as well as p21Cip1 / Waf1, p27Kip1, and p57Kip2 (cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors of the cyclin-CDK2 complex), are key regulators of CDK2 activity. Dysregulation of CDK2 binding by cyclin E1, E2, A1, or A2, or the activity of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor proteins, can occur in cancer. (See S. Tadesse et al., Drug Discovery Today, Volume 25, Number 2, February 2020)

[0004] Dysregulation of CDK2 can occur through several mechanisms. Amplification and / or overexpression of CCNE1 has been observed in ovarian and breast cancer (see Scaltriti, M. et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 108, 3761-3766 (2011) and Etemadmoghadam, D. et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 110, 19489-19494 (2013)). Poor outcomes in gastric, endometrial, and other cancers are associated with overexpression and / or amplification of CCNE1 (see Ooi et al., Hum Pathol. (2017) 61:58-67 and Noske et al., Oncotarget (2017) 8:14794-14805).

[0005] These findings indicate that CDK2 is a potential target for cancers with unregulated CDK2 activity, but no drugs that selectively target CDK2 are currently approved, necessitating the development of new selective CDK2 inhibitors.

[0006] The structure of one of the CDK2 inhibitors, referred to herein as "Compound (I)" or N-(5-(difluoromethoxy)-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-1-((tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)methyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyrazin-6-amine, is shown below: [ka] There is a need to develop improved methods, including dosing regimens, for treating subjects suffering from cancer with Compound (I).

[0021] The term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to a pharmaceutical salt that is suitable for use in contact with the tissues of humans and lower animals without undue toxicity, irritation, or allergic reaction, within the scope of sound medical judgment, and is commensurate with a reasonable benefit / risk ratio. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are well known in the art. For example, S.M. Berge et al. describe pharmacologically acceptable salts in J.Pharm.Sci., 1977, 66, 1-19.

[0022] Compound (I) disclosed herein can be useful in the form of a free base or a salt. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutically acceptable salt is selected from the group consisting of methanesulfonate, ethanesulfonate, benzenesulfonate, tosylate, naphthalene-2-sulfonate, glycine, succinate, citrate, tartrate, adipate, aspartate, histidine, vanillin, phosphate, hydrochloride, hydrobromide, nitrate, and sulfate. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutically acceptable salt of Compound (I) is selected from the group consisting of methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, toluene-4-sulfonic acid, naphthalene-2-sulfonic acid, hydrochloric acid, hydrobromide, nitric acid, and sulfuric acid salts.

[0023] In some embodiments, Compound (I) is administered as the free base in the methods of treatment disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of Compound (I) is administered in the methods of treatment disclosed herein.

[0024] Compound (I) is an effective, potent, and selective CDK2 inhibitor and can be used to treat various cancers. As used herein, the term "selective CDK2 inhibitor" refers to a compound that selectively inhibits CDK2 over other CDKs and kinomes. In other words, a selective CDK2 inhibitor has no or low activity against other CDKs, particularly CDK1, and kinomes. The inhibitory activity of a selective CDK2 inhibitor against CDK2 is higher than that against other CDKs and many other kinases, with an IC 50 value( すなわち Compound (I) is more potent in terms of selectivity (e.g., subnanomolar IC50 values). Efficacy can be measured using known biochemical assays. Advantages associated with such selectivity may include facilitating effective administration and reducing toxicity on CDK1-mediated targets. Compound (I) has a favorable toxicity profile relative to other non-kinase targets.

[0025] Compound (I) is selective for CDK2 over CDK1. In some such embodiments, Compound (I) exhibits at least 10-fold selectivity for CDK2 over CDK1. In other embodiments, Compound (I) exhibits at least 20-fold selectivity for CDK2 over CDK1. In certain embodiments, Compound (I) exhibits at least 30-fold selectivity for CDK2 over CDK1. In certain embodiments, Compound (I) exhibits at least 40-fold selectivity for CDK2 over CDK1. In other embodiments, Compound (I) exhibits at least 50-fold selectivity for CDK2 over CDK1. Compound (I) is selective for CDK2 over CDK4 and / or CDK6. In some such embodiments, Compound (I) exhibits at least 10-fold selectivity for CDK2 over CDK4 and / or CDK6. In other embodiments, compound (I) exhibits at least 20-fold selectivity for CDK2 over CDK4 and / or CDK6. In certain embodiments, compound (I) exhibits at least 30-fold selectivity for CDK2 over CDK4 and / or CDK6.

[0026] Compound (I) has the advantage of good metabolic stability. One indicator of good metabolic stability is high microsomal stability. Hepatic metabolism is the predominant excretion route for small molecule drugs. The clearance of a compound via hepatic metabolism can be evaluated in vitro using human liver microsomes (HLM) or human hepatocytes. The compound is incubated with HLM plus appropriate cofactors or human hepatocytes, and the compound depletion is measured to determine the in vitro intrinsic clearance (Cl). The Cl is scaled to the total body clearance (CL) and the hepatic extraction ratio (ER) is determined by dividing the CL by the standard hepatic blood flow rate in humans. Compounds with low hepatic extraction ratios are considered to have good metabolic stability. In some embodiments, the compounds of the present disclosure have a calculated ER of <0.3, <0.4, <0.5, or <0.6.

[0027] In another embodiment, the cancer is characterized by amplification and / or overexpression of CCNE1 or CCNE2. In some embodiments, the cancer is characterized by elevated or aberrant expression of CCNE1 or CCNE2. Thus, in some embodiments of the method, the subject or patient has previously been determined to have elevated Cyclin E1 (CCNE1) gene expression and / or a CCNE1 expression level higher than a control expression level of CCNE1 in a biological sample obtained from the subject or patient.

[0028] In another embodiment, the present disclosure provides a method for inhibiting the growth of tumor (e.g., cancer) cells in vitro. The method comprises contacting tumor (e.g., cancer) cells in vitro with Compound (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In another embodiment, the present disclosure provides a method for suppressing the growth of tumor (e.g., cancer) cells associated with elevated or aberrant expression of CCNE1 in a subject or patient. The method comprises administering a therapeutically effective amount of Compound (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, to a subject or patient in need thereof.

[0029] In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides the use of 100 mg to 1600 mg of Compound (I), or an amount of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof equivalent to 100 mg to 1600 mg of Compound (I), to prepare a medicament for treating cancer.

[0091] In some embodiments, elevated levels of the Cyclin E1 (CCNE1) gene and / or abnormal expression levels of CCNE1 in a biological sample may indicate that a patient or subject may benefit from administration of Compound (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

[0092] CCNE1 is a cell cycle factor essential for cell cycle regulation at the G1 / S transition (Ohtsubo et al., 1995, Mol. Cell. Biol. 15:2612-2624). CCNE1 acts as a regulatory subunit of CDK2 and interacts with CDK2 to form a serine / threonine kinase holoenzyme complex. The CCNE1 subunit of this holoenzyme complex provides substrate specificity for the complex (Honda et al., 2005, EMBO 24:452-463). CCNE1 is encoded by the cyclin E1 ("CCNE1") gene (GenBank accession number NM_001238). The amino acid sequence of human CCNE1 can be found in GenBank accession number NP_001229 / UniProtKB accession number P24864).

[0093] In one aspect, the present disclosure provides a method of treating a subject suffering from or at risk of developing cancer, the method comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of Compound (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a pharmaceutical composition disclosed herein, wherein the subject has an amplified (e.g., copy number-based) CCNE1 gene and / or a level of CCNE1 that is higher than a control level of CCNE1.

[0095] In some embodiments, amplification of the CCNE1 gene and / or a level of CCNE1 higher than a control level of CCNE1 indicates / predicts that a human subject suffering from or at risk of developing cancer will respond to an effective dose of a CDK2 inhibitor, i.e., Compound (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In some embodiments, an abnormal level of CCNE1 that is different from a control level of CCNE1 indicates / predicts that a human subject suffering from or at risk of developing cancer will respond to an effective dose of a CDK2 inhibitor, i.e., Compound (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In some embodiments, the expression level of CCNE1 may be the level of CCNE1 mRNA. In other embodiments, the expression level of CCNE1 may be the level of CCNE1 protein. In other embodiments, the expression level of CCNE1 may be an indirect measure of CCNE1 mRNA or protein levels. In some embodiments, the level of CCNE1 is modulated in response to administration of an effective dose of Compound (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof to a subject.

A person skilled in the art would know how to prepare formulations suitable for various types of administration routes. Conventional procedures and ingredients for the selection and preparation of suitable formulations can be found, for example, in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences (2003-20th edition), and The United States Pharmacopeia: The National Formulary, 1999 (USP 24 NF19). A carrier, diluent, and / or excipient is "acceptable" in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the pharmaceutical composition and not deleterious to the recipient thereof.

[0160] Administration method and dosage form The exact amount of compound administered to provide an "effective amount" to a subject will depend on the mode of administration, the type and severity of the cancer, and the subject's characteristics (such as overall health, age, sex, weight, and tolerance to drugs). Those skilled in the art will be able to determine the appropriate dosage depending on these and other factors. When administered in combination with other therapeutic agents, for example, in combination with anti-cancer drugs, the "effective amount" of any additional therapeutic agent(s) will depend on the type of drug used. Appropriate dosages of approved therapeutic agents are known and can be adjusted by those skilled in the art depending on the subject's condition, the type of pathology(s) being treated, and the amount of Compound (I) used, for example, by following the dosages reported in the literature and recommended in the Physician's Desk Reference (57th Ed., 2003).

[0161] "Treating" or "treatment" refers to obtaining a desired pharmacological and / or physiological effect, which may be therapeutic, including partially or substantially achieving one or more of the following results: partially or substantially reducing the extent of cancer; ameliorating or improving clinical symptoms or indicators associated with cancer; delaying, inhibiting, or reducing the likelihood of cancer progression; or reducing the likelihood of cancer recurrence.

[0162] The term "effective amount" refers to an amount that, when administered to a subject, produces a beneficial or desired result (including a clinical result), e.g., inhibits, suppresses, or reduces the symptoms of the condition being treated in the subject compared to a control. For example, a therapeutically effective amount can be provided in a unit dosage form (e.g., 0.1 mg to about 50 g per day, alternatively 1 mg to about 5 grams per day, and further alternatively 10 mg to 1 gram per day).

[0163] As used herein, the terms "administer," "administering," "administration," and the like refer to methods that can be used to enable delivery of a composition to a desired site of biological action. These methods include, but are not limited to, intraarticular (in the joints), intravenous, intramuscular, intratumor, intradermal, intraperitoneal, subcutaneous, oral, topical, intrathecal, inhalation, transdermal, rectal, and the like.

[0236] ). In some embodiments, the SERD is fulvestrant. In some embodiments, Compound (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is administered to a subject in need thereof in combination with an effective amount (e.g., 500 mg) of fulvestrant. In one embodiment, fulvestrant is co-administered on days 1 and 15 of cycle 1 and on day 1 of each cycle thereafter. In one embodiment, 500 mg of fulvestrant is co-administered intramuscularly on days 1 and 15 of cycle 1 and on day 1 of each cycle thereafter.

[0241] In some embodiments, compound (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is administered to a subject in need thereof in combination with an effective amount of a CDK4 / 6 inhibitor in the amount described in any one of the above embodiments (e.g., any of paragraphs

[0165] to

[0236] ). In some embodiments, the CDK4 / 6 inhibitor is ribociclib. In some embodiments, compound (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is administered to a subject in need thereof in combination with an effective amount (e.g., 400 mg or 600 mg) of ribociclib and an effective amount (e.g., 500 mg) of fulvestrant. In one embodiment, ribociclib is co-administered once daily on days 1 to 21 of a 28-day cycle, and fulvestrant is co-administered on days 1 and 15 of cycle 1 and on day 1 of each cycle thereafter. In one embodiment, 400 mg or 600 mg of ribociclib are co-administered orally once daily on days 1-21 of a 28-day cycle with 500 mg of fulvestrant co-administered intramuscularly on days 1 and 15 of cycle 1 and day 1 of each cycle thereafter.

[0242] As will be understood by those skilled in the art, Compound (I) or its pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be administered to patients in various forms depending on the selected administration route. Compound (I) may be administered, for example, orally, parenterally, bucally, sublingually, nasally, rectally, by patch, pump, or transdermal administration, and by pharmaceutical compositions formulated accordingly. Parenteral administration includes intravenous administration, intraperitoneal administration, subcutaneous administration, intramuscular administration, transepithelial administration, intranasal administration, intrapulmonary administration, intrathecal administration, rectal administration, and topical administration modes. Parenteral administration can be by continuous infusion over a selected period of time.

[0243] The pharmaceutical composition of the present disclosure is formulated to be compatible with its intended route of administration.In one embodiment, the composition is formulated according to conventional procedures as a pharmaceutical composition suitable for intravenous, subcutaneous, intramuscular, oral, intranasal or topical administration to humans.In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition is formulated for oral administration.In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition is formulated for intravenous administration.

[0244] Typically, for oral therapeutic administration, Compound (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof may be incorporated with excipients and used in the form of ingestible tablets, buccal tablets, troches, capsules, elixirs, suspensions, syrups, wafers, and the like.

[0245] Typically, for parenteral administration, solutions of Compound (I) or its pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be prepared in water, generally in a suitable mixture with a surfactant such as hydroxypropylcellulose. Dispersions can also be prepared in glycerol, liquid polyethylene glycols, DMSO, and mixtures thereof, with or without alcohol, and in oils. These preparations contain a preservative to prevent the growth of microorganisms under ordinary storage and use conditions.

[0246] Typically, for injectable use, sterile aqueous solutions or dispersions and sterile powders of Compound (I) for the extemporaneous preparation of sterile injectable solutions or dispersions are suitable.

[0247] The following examples are intended to be illustrative and not to limit the scope of the present disclosure in any way. [Example]

[0248] Example 1 Phase 1 / 2 Study in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors This is an ongoing Phase 1 / 2, open-label, first-in-human study (NCT05252416) to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and anticancer activity of Compound (I), a selective inhibitor of CDK2.

[0249] Phase 1: Dose escalation

[0250] This study included dose-escalation phases in patients with advanced / recurrent solid tumors (Part 1A; 50–70 patients); platinum-resistant or platinum-refractory ovarian cancer, endometrial cancer that had progressed after two or more lines of therapy (previously received platinum therapy), and gastric cancer that had progressed after two or more lines of therapy (previously received platinum therapy) (Part 1C; 25–40 patients); and HR+ / HER2- BC that had progressed despite CDK4 / 6i (Part 1D; 25–40 patients) (Figure 1). There was no Part 1B in the phase 1 dose-escalation phase.

[0251] The study included an initial Phase 1 portion to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and / or recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of compound (I) as monotherapy (initially a BID regimen, with the option to evaluate QD dosing if supported by new PK and safety data; Part 1A), as well as two additional dose-escalation portions to determine the RP2D of compound (I) in combination with carboplatin (Part 1C) and the RP2D of compound (I) in combination with ribociclib and fulvestrant (Part 1D).

[0252] Dose Escalation Part 1A: Compound (I) Monotherapy

[0253] Phase 1 dose escalation used a Bayesian optimal interval (BOIN) design to identify the MTD of Compound (I) when administered in BID and QD dosing regimens. During dose escalation, patients with advanced recurrent / recurrent tumors were included (regardless of CCNE1 status), and at potentially therapeutic doses, priority was given to patients with CCNE1-amplified solid tumors. At each dose level, slots may be reserved for patients with CCNE1 amplification.

[0254] Patients in the first cohort were treated with a starting dose of 50 mg orally twice daily. To limit the number of patients receiving treatment at potentially subtherapeutic dose levels, the study initially used cohort sizes of 1 to 3 patients, with dose escalation between cohorts at approximately 100%. If one patient at any dose level experienced a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) or any two patients at any dose level experienced a grade 2 or higher adverse event (AE) considered potentially related to Compound (I) within 28 days of treatment, dose escalation increments were reduced to approximately 50%. Each dose level was rounded down or up to the nearest multiple of 25 mg to accommodate available dose strengths (25 mg and 100 mg). Patients who experienced a DLT or received at least 75% of the prescribed Compound (I) dose (21 days) and completed the 28-day DLT evaluation period were evaluable for DLT assessment. Enrollment into each cohort, dose escalation, de-escalation, and dose discharge followed BOIN rules. A Safety Review Committee (SRC) met to review accumulated safety data and reached consensus on the decision to open each cohort and the specific dose selected for each cohort. All cohorts at dose levels ≥ 100 mg BID (or ≥ 200 mg QD) consisted of at least three evaluable patients. To allow for more robust characterization of safety, PK, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary clinical activity, additional patients may be enrolled at a previously tested lower dose level if that dose level cohort contains fewer than 12 evaluable patients for DLT and further escalation is approved by the SRC. For patients enrolled at a previously tested dose level, intrapatient dose escalation was permitted, provided the dose was not increased beyond the dose level approved for further dose escalation by the SRC and the patient completed ≥ 8 weeks of treatment without experiencing a grade 3 / 4 AE related to Compound (I) or the DLT.

[0255] The total number of patients evaluable for DLT at any given dose level should not exceed 12, and dose escalation was considered complete when 12 patients were evaluable for DLT at any dose level. While the MTD is determined based on monotonic regression, the RP2D may be selected taking into account all clinical data, including safety, PK, pharmacodynamics, and antitumor activity.

[0256] Additionally, if supported by new PK data from the BID dose escalation, a QD dosing schedule will be evaluated using the same BOIN dose escalation design as above. The total daily dose level at the start of the QD dose escalation will not exceed the highest dose level of the BID schedule approved for further dose escalation by the SRC. For example, if QD dosing is initiated after a 100 mg BID dose is deemed safe for further escalation, the QD dose cohort will begin at a dose of 100 mg QD.

[0257] Dose Escalation Part 1C: Compound (I) in Combination with Carboplatin

[0258] Dose escalation of the combination of Compound (I) and carboplatin includes patients with platinum-resistant or platinum-refractory ovarian cancer, gastric cancer that has progressed after at least two prior lines of therapy, including platinum-based chemotherapy, and endometrial cancer that has progressed after at least two prior lines of therapy, including platinum-based chemotherapy. The first cohort will receive a single intravenous dose of Compound (I) on Day 1 of each 28-day cycle, in combination with carboplatin at a starting area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) of 4 mg / mL·min at ≤50% of the monotherapy RP2D. Further dose escalation or deescalation will be performed according to the BOIN design rules. The dose of Compound (I) in the combination cohort will not exceed the monotherapy RP2D. Patients who experience a DLT or receive at least 75% (21 days) of the prescribed Compound (I) dose, receive the full prescribed dose of carboplatin, and complete the 28-day DLT evaluation period will be evaluable for DLT assessment.

[0259] Dose Escalation Part 1D: Compound (I) in Combination with Ribociclib and Fulvestrant

[0260] Dose escalation of Compound (I) in combination with ribociclib includes patients with HR+ / HER2- breast cancer with disease progression. The first cohort includes at least six patients receiving Compound (I) in combination with ribociclib at 400 mg orally QD on days 1-21 of a 28-day cycle at approximately 25% of the monotherapy RP2D (or, if the RP2D has not yet been determined, at approximately 25% of the highest monotherapy dose at which further escalation is deemed safe; doses may be rounded up or down to account for available tablet strengths), and fulvestrant at its approved dose (500 mg intramuscular injection on days 1 and 15 of cycle 1 and day 1 of each cycle thereafter). Patients who experience a DLT or receive at least 75% of the prescribed dose of Compound (I) (for 21 days), at least 75% of the prescribed dose of ribociclib (for 16 days), receive the full prescribed dose of fulvestrant, and complete the 28-day DLT evaluation period will be evaluable for DLT assessment. Further dose escalation or deescalation will be performed according to the BOIN design rules. The dose of Compound (I) in the combination cohort will not exceed the RP2D of monotherapy.

[0261] Phase 1 evaluation

[0262] The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) will be determined based on dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) and the safety profile.

[0263] The R2PD will be determined based on DLT, PK, PD, and preliminary safety data.

[0264] result

[0265] Compound (I) is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1 dose-escalation clinical trial. To date, patients have been treated with Compound (I) at doses ranging from 50 mg BID to 800 mg BID, with evidence of clinical benefit and no discontinuations due to adverse events (AEs).

[0266] Example 2 Dose Expansion Part 2A (Compound (I) as Monotherapy), Part 2B (Compound (I) in Combination with Fulvestrant), Part 2C (Compound (I) in Combination with Carboplatin), and Part 2D (Compound (I) in Combination with Ribociclib and Fulvestrant) Upon completion of dose escalation of Compound (I) monotherapy and determination of the RP2D (dose level and schedule), Phase 2 expansion arms of Compound (I) monotherapy (Part 2A) and the combination of Compound (I) with fulvestrant (Part 2B) will be initiated. Approximately 45 patients with platinum-resistant or platinum-refractory ovarian cancer harboring CCNE1 amplification (Arm 1), approximately 45 patients with endometrial cancer harboring CCNE1 amplification (Arm 2), and approximately 25 patients from a basket group with solid tumors harboring CCNE1 amplification (Arm 3) will be treated with Compound (I) at the RP2D. For Part 2B, Arm 4, an advance cohort of at least nine patients with HR+ / HER2- breast cancer that has progressed on CDK4 / 6i will be treated with Compound (I) in combination with fulvestrant as monotherapy at the RP2D. If this is tolerated, an additional 24 patients with HR+ / HER2- breast cancer that has progressed on CDK4 / 6i will be treated with fulvestrant and Compound (I) at the RP2D as monotherapy.

[0267] Upon completion of Part 1C and determination of the RP2D for Compound (I) and carboplatin, a Phase 2 expansion arm (Part 2C) of Compound (I) in combination with carboplatin will be initiated. Approximately 45 patients with platinum-resistant or platinum-refractory ovarian cancer harboring CCNE1 amplification will be treated with Compound (I) and carboplatin.

[0268] Upon completion of Part 1D and determination of RP2D for Compound (I) in combination with ribociclib and fulvestrant, a Phase 2 expansion arm (Part 2D) of Compound (I) in combination with ribociclib and fulvestrant will be initiated. Approximately 33 patients with HR+ / HER2- breast cancer who have progressed on CDK4 / 6i will be treated with ribociclib and fulvestrant and Compound (I) at RP2D.

[0269] Test treatment

[0270] Compound (I) will be administered orally daily (at a dose level and schedule [BID or QD] defined for the relevant study phase and cohort) without food or concomitant medications from 2 hours before dosing until 1 hour after dosing. The drug is preferably administered at approximately the same time(s) each day. Dose modifications will be made according to specific criteria based on observed toxicity.

[0271] For patients in Part 2B, fulvestrant will be used in combination with Compound (I) in patients with HR+ / HER2- breast cancer. Fulvestrant will be administered according to local prescribing information and institutional standards.

[0272] For patients in Parts 1C and 2C, carboplatin AUC 4–5 mg / mL·min will be administered as an intravenous infusion over 15–60 minutes every 28 days for 4–6 cycles according to local prescribing information and institutional standards.

[0273] For patients in Parts 1D and 2D, ribociclib and fulvestrant will be administered at dose levels determined for specific dose escalation cohorts according to local prescribing information and institutional standards.

[0274] Phase 2 evaluation

[0275] Efficacy will be assessed using standard Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version (v) 1.1 criteria (Eisenhauer EA, Therasse P, Bogaerts J, et al. New response evaluation criteria in solid tumors: revised RECIST guideline (version 1.1). Eur J Cancer. 2009;45:228-247).

[0276] Example 3. Summary of Data from a Phase 1 / 2 Study in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors Patients were enrolled in a Phase 1 dose-escalation study described in Example 1 and treated with Compound (I). Primary patient eligibility criteria included: i) adulthood with unresectable, advanced solid tumors; ii) ECOG PS 0-2; and iii) progression after standard of care. Patients were eligible for enrollment regardless of CCNE1 status.

[0277] As of data cutoff (January 22, 2024), 53 patients were treated with Compound (I) monotherapy in Phase 1 (Part 1A) in seven ascending dose cohorts at total daily doses ranging from 100 mg to 1600 mg (50 mg to 800 mg twice daily) and were included in the safety population (Table 1). Patients were heavily pretreated, with 71.7% having received four or more prior therapies.

[0278] [Table 1-1] [Table 1-2]

[0279] Pharmacokinetics (cutoff date: December 14, 2023)

[0280] Plasma concentrations of Compound (I) increased proportionally up to 600 mg BID (Figure 2). The mean effective half-life of Compound (I) was 12 hours (calculated from the extent of accumulation).eff ) ranges represent effective Compound (I) monotherapy concentrations that result in tumor congestion in preclinical OVCAR-3, MKN-1, and T47D models, corresponding to 25%, 25%, and 60% inhibition of phosphorylated Rb at Ser807 and / or Ser811, respectively, in these models.

[0281] Pharmacodynamics (cutoff date January 22, 2024)

[0282] During dose escalation, evidence of on-target activity via serum TK1 levels was observed, with patients treated with compound (I) monotherapy showing decreased TK1 activity at the higher dose levels tested (Figure 3). Patients who were off treatment at the time of sample collection (n=3) or for whom baseline samples could not be obtained (n=1) were excluded. A partial response (PR) was confirmed by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1).

[0283] A decrease in phosphorylated Rb (pRb) was observed in three patients treated with Compound (I) at 400 mg and 500 mg twice daily (Figure 4, patients 5, 6, and 7). The mid-treatment tumor biopsy of patient 6 (described in the patient vignette below) most likely underestimates the extent of pRb inhibition, as the biopsy was performed late (12 hours after the most recent Compound (I) dose), demonstrating recovery of pRb over time.

[0284] Safety (Cut-off date: January 22, 2024)

[0285] Compound (I) monotherapy was generally well tolerated through the data cutoff of January 22, 2024. Dose escalation is ongoing. The most frequently reported treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) are shown in Table 2. Two patients discontinued study treatment due to AEs. Two patients experienced dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs): one patient experienced grade 3 nausea at 800 mg BID, and one patient experienced grade 3 blurred vision / nyctophobia at 600 mg BID. Both patients improved after dose reduction. No cardiac TRAEs or QTc prolongation were observed. Hematologic TRAEs were generally mild and were primarily observed in patients with a history of cytopenias and / or baseline cytopenias. Four patients experienced grade 3 anemia, one of which was treatment-related; no grade 4 or higher anemia was reported. Three patients experienced grade 1 or grade 2 neutropenia, but no grade 3 or higher neutropenia was reported. One patient experienced grade 3 thrombocytopenia. Two patients receiving 800 mg BID experienced improvement in TRAEs after dose reduction.

[0286] Visual AEs were reported in 15 (28.3%) patients (some experienced >1 event), with photophobia (17.0% [9 / 53]) and blurred vision (11.3% [6 / 53]) being the most frequently reported. Symptoms were generally well tolerated, except for one patient with grade 3 blurred vision and photophobia (DLT). Events were intermittent (intervals ranging from seconds to hours), occurred shortly after dosing, and most resolved completely either spontaneously or with dose interruption / reduction. Comprehensive ophthalmologic examinations, including optical coherence tomography, were normal in all patients, with no acute abnormal findings.

[0287] Forty-one (77.4%) patients receiving Compound (I) monotherapy experienced treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) (Table 2). The most common TRAEs (≥15%) included nausea (49.1%), diarrhea (49.1%), fatigue (32.1%), vomiting (30.2%), anemia (17.0%), and phobia (15.1%). DLTs were observed in two patients. Two patients discontinued due to TRAEs.

[0288] [Table 2]

[0289] Additionally, as of January 22, 2024, at least one patient in each of the 200 mg BID, 400 mg BID, 500 mg BID, and 600 mg BID cohorts remained stable (one patient in the 400 mg BID cohort remained stable for 6 months, and another patient in the 600 mg BID cohort remained stable for approximately 1 year), and one patient in the 800 mg BID cohort experienced a partial response (the dose was reduced to 400 mg BID after 4 days).

[0290] Part 1 Patient Vignette

[0291] A 57-year-old woman with HR+ / HER2- breast cancer that had metastasized to the liver and bone and had progressed after treatment with 1) doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, and paclitaxel, 2) tamoxifen, 3) palbociclib and fulvestrant, 4) abemaciclib and anastrozole, and 5) capecitabine.

[0292] Patients were enrolled in the Phase 1 portion of the study and initiated Compound (I) monotherapy at 800 mg BID for 4 days. Grade 3 nausea (DLT) improved after dose reduction, so the dose was reduced to 400 mg BID on Day 8 of Cycle 1.

[0293] A PR by RECIST v1.1 was observed as a 43% reduction in solitary liver metastasis after 2 cycles, which was confirmed after 4 cycles. See Figure 5.

28. 1. A method of treating cancer in a subject in need thereof, comprising: i. testing or has tested a first biological sample obtained from said subject suffering from cancer, thereby measuring the level of one or more biomarkers in said subject's cancer; ii. comparing the level of the one or more biomarkers in step i to the level of the one or more biomarkers measured in a subject in which the pathway is functioning normally; iii. In response to determining that the subject's cancer is sensitive to compound (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, the method comprises treating the subject with a therapeutically effective amount of compound (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

29. 29. The method of claim 28, further comprising testing or having tested a second biological sample obtained from the subject suffering from cancer, thereby determining whether the level of one or more biomarkers changes after administration of compound (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

30. 1. A method for monitoring a response in a subject suffering from or at risk of developing cancer, said method comprising: i. administering to said subject in need thereof an amount of 100 mg to 1600 mg of compound (I), or an amount of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof equivalent to 100 mg to 1600 mg of compound (I); ii. testing or has tested a first biological sample obtained from said subject, thereby measuring the level of one or more biomarkers in said biological sample; iii.
