[Technical Field]
[0001] Relationship with prior applications This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Applications No. 63 / 381711 (filed October 31, 2022), No. 63 / 425522 (filed November 15, 2022), No. 63 / 501221 (filed May 10, 2023), and No. 63 / 506526 (filed June 6, 2023) (collectively, the "Prior Applications"). The contents of the Prior Applications are incorporated herein by reference as if they were fully described herein.
[0002] Technical field This technology relates to PIM kinase inhibitors, particularly selective PIM1 kinase inhibitors, for monotherapy and combination therapy for the treatment of myeloproliferative neoplasms such as myelofibrosis (MF). [Background technology]
[0003] Despite significant progress in the treatment of many hematological malignancies, major unmet needs remain. Drug resistance, toxicity, poor response, and poor overall survival persist as major challenges, necessitating the development and evaluation of new therapeutics.
[0004] Myelofibrosis ("MF") is the most severe form of myeloproliferative neoplasm ("MPN"), characterized by myelofibrosis, abnormal hematopoiesis, splenomegaly, symptom exacerbation, and frequent transformation to acute myeloid leukemia. The first-line standard treatment for MF is therapy with JAK2 inhibitors such as ruxolitinib. However, some patients do not respond adequately, their disease continues to progress, or they suffer from adverse events, particularly thrombocytopenia and other loss of bone marrow function.
[0005] To address these challenges, numerous molecules targeting various biological targets have been developed. Navitoclax (oral BCL-X) LMany of these drugs, such as BCL-2 inhibitors, parsaclisib (an oral phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase delta (PI3Kδ) inhibitor), and pelabresib (an oral bromodomain and extraterminal domain (BET) inhibitor (BETi)), have shown efficacy in animal models, but subsequently failed or performed poorly in rigorous human clinical trials, particularly in relapsed or refractory patients previously treated with JAK inhibitors, or when evaluating the overall efficacy of the drugs in the most common symptom load reported by MPN human patients.
[0006] The PIM kinase family is involved in the regulation of cell proliferation, survival, and the cell cycle, and is overexpressed in various cancers. PIM1 kinase has been found to be significantly overexpressed in MF patients. TP-3654 is a highly selective oral PIM-1 kinase inhibitor. [Overview of the Initiative] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]
[0007] There remains a need for human therapeutic regimens that utilize the activity of both selective PIM1 kinase inhibitors in general, and especially TP-3654, to treat hematological malignancies such as MF.
[0008] Furthermore, there remains a need to treat the symptomatic burden of myeloproliferative neoplasms in humans, particularly the symptomatic burden measured by the Total Symptoms Score.
[0009] There is a further need to augment existing MPN treatments without causing or exacerbating hematological toxicity.
[0010] Further needs exist in groups that have previously been treated with JAK inhibitors and have experienced disease relapse, groups that have become refractory to treatment, groups that are intolerant to JAK inhibitors, or groups that are a combination of two or more of these.
[0011] Furthermore, there is a greater need in patients who suffer from poor bone marrow function as a result of previous drug treatments or the disease condition itself. [Means for solving the problem]
[0012] This disclosure is partly based on the finding that compound (1)(TP-3654) exhibits clinical activity in human myeloproliferative disorders (e.g., MF) with little to no hematological toxicity and poor bone marrow function associated with JAK inhibitors, as reported in the examples herein. These findings enable the treatment of patients with poor bone marrow function for whom other therapies are often unavailable. Furthermore, given that poor bone marrow function plays a prognostic role in disease progression, improved efficacy treatments are also possible.
[0013] Therefore, in one embodiment, the present disclosure provides a method for treating myeloproliferative neoplasms in human subjects requiring treatment, wherein the method provides the subject with a therapeutically effective amount of the following structure: [ka] The administration of a compound (1) having the above, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, the subject being thrombocytopenia (e.g., platelet counts of 150, 100, 75, 50, or 25 × 10⁻¹⁰ 9 Poor bone marrow function characterized by: ≠ / L; anemia (e.g., Hgb levels ≠ 10, 9, or 8 g / dL); transfusion dependence; or a combination thereof, where treatment induces a clinically meaningful response in myeloproliferative neoplasms.
[0014] This disclosure further builds upon the finding that the absence of hematological toxicity observed with compound (1) is also observed with other selective PIM1 inhibitors, but these advantages are not observed with pan-PIM1 inhibitors, as shown in the examples herein.
[0015] Accordingly, in another aspect, the present disclosure provides a method for treating myeloproliferative neoplasms in a human subject requiring treatment, the method comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective dose of a selective PIM1 inhibitor, the subject having thrombocytopenia (e.g., platelet counts of 150, 100, 75, 50, or 25 × 10⁶). 9 Poor bone marrow function characterized by: ≠ / L; anemia (e.g., Hgb levels ≠ 10, 9, or 8 g / dL); transfusion dependence; or a combination thereof, where treatment induces a clinically meaningful response in myeloproliferative neoplasms.
[0016] This disclosure is further based on the finding that compound (1) is effective in human subjects who have previously failed with JAK inhibitor therapy and is effective against myeloproliferative neoplasms to a degree not seen with other treatments under development, as shown by the comparisons reported in the examples herein.
[0017] Therefore, in another aspect, the present disclosure provides a method for treating a myeloproliferative neoplasm in a human subject in need of treatment, the subject having been previously treated for the myeloproliferative neoplasm with a JAK inhibitor and, as appropriate, having a relapsed disease or being refractory to the JAK inhibitor, the method comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of the following structure: [ka] The treatment comprises administering a compound (1) having the same, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which induces a clinically meaningful response in myeloproliferative neoplasms.
[0018] This disclosure is also based on the finding that compound (1) may treat the symptomatic burden of myeloproliferative neoplasms, particularly when other treatments under investigation have failed, as measured by a reduction of approximately 50% in the Total Symptoms Score ("TSS50").
[0019] Therefore, in another aspect, the present disclosure provides a method for treating myeloproliferative neoplasms by inducing TSS50 in a human subject in need of treatment, wherein the method involves administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of the following structure: [ka] Treatment of myeloproliferative neoplasms by inducing TSS50 in a subject comprises administering a compound (1) having or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and optionally, treatment is performed at a time between approximately 12 weeks and approximately 100 weeks (e.g., a time between approximately 20 weeks and approximately 75 weeks, or a time between approximately 24 weeks and approximately 48 weeks).
[0020] This disclosure is also based on the finding that compound (1) or another selective PIM1 inhibitor, when administered in combination with other treatments for myeloproliferative neoplasms, such as JAK inhibitors and / or ACVR inhibitors (e.g., ruxolitinib and momerotinib), minimize or completely eliminate overlapping hematological toxicities, such as anemia, thrombocytopenia, transfusion dependence, or combinations of two or more thereof. At the same time, each molecule in the combination makes a meaningful contribution to the efficacy of the treatment, particularly in terms of improving TSS and / or reducing spleen volume.
[0021] Therefore, in another aspect, the present disclosure provides a method for treating myeloproliferative neoplasms in human subjects requiring treatment, wherein the subject has the following structure: [ka] The treatment comprises administering a compound (1) having the above, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and ruxolitinib or momerotinib or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, in amounts that do not induce overlapping hematological toxicities (e.g., anemia and / or thrombocytopenia and / or transfusion dependence), wherein the treatment induces a clinically meaningful response in myeloproliferative neoplasms.
[0022] In another aspect, the Disclosure provides a method for treating myeloproliferative neoplasms in human subjects in need of treatment, the method comprising administering to the subject a selective PIM1 inhibitor and a JAK inhibitor and / or ACVR inhibitor (e.g., ruxolitinib or momerotinib) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in a dose that does not induce overlapping hematological toxicities (e.g., anemia and / or thrombocytopenia and / or transfusion dependence), the treatment inducing a clinically meaningful response in the myeloproliferative neoplasm.
[0023] This disclosure is further based on the remarkable results observed from compound (1) compared to other treatments for myeloproliferative neoplasms in a human subject previously treated with a JAK inhibitor, and the potential for enhanced clinically meaningful improvement in SVR35 or TSS50.
[0024] Therefore, in another aspect, the present disclosure provides a method for inducing an SVR35 probability of approximately 15% or more, or approximately 20% or more, in human subjects suffering from myeloproliferative neoplasms, wherein the subjects have been previously treated with a JAK inhibitor for myeloproliferative neoplasms and may, as appropriate, have relapsed disease or be refractory to JAK inhibitors, and the method involves administering to the subjects a therapeutically effective amount of the following structure: [ka] The treatment comprises administering a compound (1) having the same, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which induces a probability of SVR35 of 15% or more or 20% or more in the subject.
[0025] In another aspect, the Disclosure provides a method for inducing a TSS50 probability of approximately 30% or more, approximately 35% or more, approximately 40% or more, approximately 45% or more, or approximately 50% or more in human subjects with myeloproliferative neoplasms, wherein the subjects have been previously treated with a JAK inhibitor for myeloproliferative neoplasm and may, as appropriate, have relapsed disease or be refractory to JAK inhibitors, and the Method provides the subjects with a therapeutically effective amount of the following structure: [ka] The treatment comprises administering a compound (1) having the same, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which induces a probability of TSS50 of approximately 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, or 50% or more in the subjects.
[0026] These and other embodiments of the embodiments of this disclosure will become apparent from the following detailed description. For this purpose, various references that describe in more detail specific background information, methods, compounds and / or compositions are included herein, each incorporated herein in whole by reference.

[Modes for carrying out the invention]
[0029] The following description provides specific details to give a complete understanding of the various embodiments of this disclosure. However, those skilled in the art will understand that embodiments of this disclosure may be carried out without these details.
[0030] Definitions and Use of Terms Unless otherwise required by context, throughout this specification and the claims, the word “comprise” and its variations, such as “comprises” and “comprising,” should be interpreted in an open and comprehensive sense (i.e., “comprises, but not limited to”).
[0031] Throughout this specification, any reference to “one embodiment,” “an embodiment,” or “some embodiments” means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in relation to an embodiment is included in at least one embodiment of this disclosure. Therefore, while the expressions “in one embodiment,” “in an embodiment,” or “in some embodiments” may appear in various places throughout this specification, they do not necessarily all refer to the same embodiment. Furthermore, certain features or characteristics can be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.
[0032] Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) refer to a group of disorders in which bone marrow stem cells abnormally proliferate and regenerate. Abnormal stem cells in MPNs produce an excess of one or more types of blood cells (e.g., red blood cells, white blood cells, and / or platelets). As disclosed herein, myeloproliferative neoplasms include, but are not limited to, polycythemia vera (PV), primary or essential thrombocythemia (ET), pre-MF, primary or idiopathic MF, and secondary MF (e.g., MF secondary to polycythemia vera or essential thrombocythemia). In some embodiments, MPN includes PV. In some embodiments, MPN includes primary or essential thrombocythemia. In some embodiments, MPN includes pre-MF. In some embodiments, MPN includes primary or idiopathic MF. In some embodiments, MPN includes secondary MF (e.g., MF secondary to polycythemia vera or essential thrombocythemia).
[0033] "Compounds of the Disclosure" or "Disclosed Compounds" means any of the active compounds disclosed herein, including compounds that target PIM kinase (i.e., Compound (1)), any of the compounds disclosed herein that target JAK and / or ACVR, or any compound known in the art to have any of these activities, all of which are incorporated herein by reference.
[0034] "Pharmaceuticals" or "Disclosed Pharmaceuticals" means compounds that target JAK and / or ACVR, such as ruxolitinib, fedratinib, pacritinib, momerotinib, ruspatercept, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, as well as lopeginterferon alpha-2b (interferon) and nabutemadeline (MDM2 inhibitors), or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, or two or more combinations thereof.
[0035] As used herein, “PIM kinase inhibitor” refers to a compound that inhibits the activity of proviral insertion (PIM) kinases in mouse lymphoma. PIM kinases refer to a family of serine / threonine kinases that regulate several signaling pathways fundamental to cancer development and progression. The PIM family includes PIM1, PIM2, and PIM3. PIM inhibitors may be active against all members of the PIM family or one or more subtypes of the PIM family. PIM inhibitors may be selected to act on a specific subtype of the PIM family; for example, a PIM inhibitor may act on PIM1 of the PIM family at a lower concentration than on other members of the PIM family. More specifically, a PIM inhibitor may act selectively on PIM1 compared to, for example, PIM2. In some embodiments, a PIM inhibitor inhibits one or more PIM subtypes, including PIM1.
[0036] As used herein, “PIM1 inhibitor” or “PIM1 kinase inhibitor” refers to a compound that functions as an inhibitor of PIM1. In some embodiments, a PIM1 inhibitor is selective to PIM1 compared to other PIM subtypes, and particularly selective to PIM1 inhibitors (e.g., acts at lower concentrations), in which case it may be called a “selective PIM1 inhibitor” or “selective PIM1 kinase inhibitor.” Selective PIM1 inhibitors generally have a PIM1 / PIM2 IC5 ratio of less than approximately 0.05, 0.045, 0.04, 0.035, 0.03, or 0.025. 50 The ratio is shown and determined as described in Foulks, Neoplasia Vol. 16, No. 5, 2014. Alternatively, selective PIM1 inhibitors are used to achieve PIM1 / PIM2 IC5 ratios of approximately 0.001–0.05, 0.005–0.04, or 0.01–0.03. 50 Shows the ratio.
[0037] A specific example of a selective PIM1 kinase inhibitor is shown in the following structure: [ka] The compound (1) having the following structure, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof (also known as TP-3654 or cmpd 1). Another specific example of a selective PIM1 kinase inhibitor is shown below: [ka] Compound (2) having , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof (also known as SGI-1776 or cmpd 2). Additional examples are given by reference to publications mentioned in the text of this disclosure, which are incorporated herein by reference.
[0038] As used herein, “JAK inhibitor” refers to a compound that inhibits the activity of Janus kinases. Janus kinases refer to a family of intracellular non-receptor tyrosine kinases that transmit cytokine-mediated signals via the JAK-STAT pathway. The JAK family includes JAK1, JAK2, JAK3, and TYK2. JAK inhibitors may be active against all members of the JAK family, or against one or more subtypes of the JAK family. JAK inhibitors may be selected for their action against a specific subtype of the JAK family; for example, a JAK inhibitor may act against JAK2 of the JAK family at a lower concentration than against other members of the JAK family. More specifically, a JAK inhibitor may act selectively on JAK2 compared to, for example, its action against JAK1. In some embodiments, a JAK inhibitor inhibits one or more JAK subtypes, including JAK2. In some embodiments, a JAK inhibitor inhibits one or more JAK subtypes, including JAK1 and JAK2 (e.g., ruxolitinib).
[0039] In some embodiments, JAK inhibitors may include ruxolitinib, tofacitinib, oclacitinib, baricitinib, filgotinib, gandotinib, restaurtinib, momerotinib, pacritinib, PF-04965842, upacitinib, perficitinib, fedratinib, cucurbitacin I, CHZ868, desernotinib, CEP-33779, R348, fivotinib, ABT-494 (these compounds are known in the art), or two or more combinations thereof. In some embodiments, JAK inhibitors may include BMS-911543, ASN002, itacitinib, NS-018, AZD1480, gandotinib, or two or more combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the JAK inhibitor may include ruxolitinib, gandotinib, restaurtinib, momerotinib, pacritinib, fedratinib, or two or more combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the JAK inhibitor may include ruxolitinib, fedratinib, pacritinib, or momerotinib, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, or two or more combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the JAK inhibitor may include ruxolitinib or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof (e.g., ruxolitinibulinate). In some embodiments, the JAK inhibitor may include fedratinib or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In some embodiments, the JAK inhibitor may include pacritinib or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In some embodiments, the JAK inhibitor may include momerotinib or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
[0040] As used herein, "JAK1 inhibitor" refers to a compound that functions as an inhibitor of JAK1. In some embodiments, JAK1 inhibitors are selective for JAK1 compared to other JAK subtypes (e.g., they act at low concentrations).
[0041] As used herein, “JAK2 inhibitor” refers to a compound that functions as an inhibitor of JAK2. In some embodiments, JAK2 inhibitors are selective for JAK2 compared to other JAK subtypes (e.g., they act at low concentrations).
[0042] As used herein, "ACVR inhibitor" refers to a compound that inhibits the activity of activin receptors. Activin receptors are receptors that bind to activin and belong to the transforming growth factor beta superfamily (TGFβ) of ligands. They are involved in many physiological processes, including proliferation, cell differentiation, homeostasis, bone formation, apoptosis, and many other functions. There are two types of activin receptors: activin type 1 and activin type 2. Activin type 1 receptors transmit signals for various TGFβ ligands, while activin type 2 receptors modulate TGFβ ligand signaling. There are three types of activin type I receptors: ACVR1, ACVR1B, and ACVR1C, each binding to a specific type II receptor-ligand complex. There are two types of activin type 2 receptors: ACVR2A and ACVR2B. ACVR inhibitors can be active against all members of the activin receptor family, or against one or more subtypes of the activin receptor family. ACVR inhibitors may be selected for their action against specific subtypes of the activin receptor family; for example, an ACVR inhibitor may act on ACVR1 of the activin receptor family at a lower concentration than other members of the activin receptor family. In some embodiments, an ACVR inhibitor inhibits one or more activin receptors, including ACVR1. In some embodiments, an ACVR inhibitor may include momerotinib, pacritinib, ruspatercept, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a combination of two or more of these. In some embodiments, an ACVR inhibitor may include momerotinib or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In some embodiments, an ACVR inhibitor may include pacritinib or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In some embodiments, an ACVR inhibitor may include ruspatercept or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
[0043] As used herein, “ACVR1 inhibitor” refers to a compound that functions as an inhibitor of ACVR1. In some embodiments, ACVR1 inhibitors are selective for the type 1 kinase activin A receptor compared to other activin receptors (e.g., they act at low concentrations).
[0044] In some embodiments, the compound may be an ACVR inhibitor and a JAK inhibitor.
[0045] Embodiments of this disclosure also involve the administration of prodrugs of the disclosed compounds. “Prodrug” means a compound that can be converted to the biologically active compound of this disclosure under physiological conditions or by solvolysis. Therefore, the term “prodrug” refers to a pharmaceutically acceptable metabolic precursor of the compound of this disclosure. A prodrug may be inactive when administered to a human subject requiring administration, but is converted to the active compound of this disclosure in vivo. Prodrugs are typically rapidly converted in vivo, for example, by hydrolysis in the blood, to obtain the parent compound of this disclosure. Prodrug compounds often offer advantages in solubility, histocompatibility, or delayed release in the subject (see, e.g., Bundgard, H., Design of Prodrugs (1985), pp. 7 9, 21 24 (Elsevier, Amsterdam)). The prodrug study is available in Higuchi, T., et al., ACS Symposium Series, Vol. 14, and in *Bioreversible Carriers in Drug Design*, Ed. Edward B. Roche, American Pharmaceutical Association and Pergamon Press, 1987.
[0046] The term "prodrug" also means any covalently attached carrier that releases the active compound of the present disclosure in vivo when such a prodrug is administered to a subject. Prodrugs of the compounds of the present disclosure can be prepared by modifying the functional groups present in the compounds of the present disclosure so that they are cleaved to the parent compounds of the present disclosure either by routine manipulations or in vivo. Prodrugs include compounds of the present disclosure in which a hydroxy group, an amino group or a mercapto group is attached to any group that cleaves to form a free hydroxy group, a free amino group or a free mercapto group, respectively, when the prodrug of the compound of the present disclosure is administered to a subject. Examples of prodrugs include, but are not limited to, acetate, formate and benzoate derivatives of alcohols, or amide derivatives of amine functional groups in the compounds of the present disclosure.
[0047] Embodiments of the present disclosure also mean that the administration of all pharmaceutically acceptable compounds of the disclosed compounds that are isotopically labeled by replacing one or more atoms with atoms having different atomic masses or mass numbers is included. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into the disclosed compounds include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, fluorine, chlorine, and iodine, such as, 2 H, 3 H, 11 C, 13 C, 14 C, 13 N, 15 N, 15 O, 17 O, 18 O, 31 P, 32 P, 35 S, 18 F, 36 Cl, 123 I, and 125This includes I. These radiolabeled compounds may be useful in determining or measuring the efficacy of a compound by characterizing, for example, the site or mode of action, or the binding affinity to a pharmacologically important site of action. Specific isotope-labeled compounds of structure (I), (II), or (III), e.g., compounds incorporating radioisotopes, are useful in tissue distribution studies of drugs and / or substrates. Tritium, a radioisotope, i.e. 3 H and carbon 14, that is 14 C is particularly useful for this purpose due to its ease of implementation and ease of detection.
[0048] Heavy isotopes such as deuterium, that 2 Substitution with H may offer certain therapeutic benefits resulting from greater metabolic stability, such as an increased half-life in vivo or a reduced required dose, and may therefore be preferred in certain situations.
[0049] 11 C, 18 F, 15 O and 13 Substitution with positron-emitting isotopes such as 1N may be useful in positron-emitting topography (PET) studies to investigate substrate receptor occupancy. Isotope-labeled compounds of structures (I), (II), or (III) can generally be prepared by the prior art known to those skilled in the art, or by processes similar to those described in the preparations and examples below, using appropriate isotope-labeling reagents instead of unlabeled reagents.
[0050] Embodiments of the present disclosure also mean that they encompass in vivo metabolites of the disclosed compounds. Such products may arise, for example, from oxidation, reduction, hydrolysis, amidation, esterification, etc., of the administered compound, primarily due to enzymatic processes. Thus, embodiments include compounds produced by processes that involve administering the compounds of the present disclosure to a human subject for a period of time sufficient to yield its metabolites. Such products are typically identified by administering the radiolabeled compounds of the present disclosure in detectable doses to animals such as rats, mice, guinea pigs, monkeys, or humans, giving them sufficient time for metabolism to occur, and then isolating the conversion products from urine, blood, or other biological samples.
[0051] "Optional" or "as appropriate" means that the event or situation described thereafter may or may not occur, and that the description includes examples where the event or situation occurs and examples where it does not. For example, "as appropriate substituted aryl" means that the aryl radical may or may not be substituted, and that it includes both substituted and unsubstituted aryl radicals.
[0052] "Pharmacologically acceptable carriers, diluents or excipients" include, but are not limited to, any adjuvants, carriers, excipients, flow enhancers, sweeteners, diluents, preservatives, colorants, flavorings, surfactants, humectants, dispersants, suspending agents, stabilizers, isotonic agents, solvents, or emulsifiers that are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as acceptable for use in humans.
[0053] "Pharmacologically acceptable salts" include both acid and base addition salts.

[0056] The compounds of this disclosure or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts may contain one or more chiral centers, and thus may give rise to enantiomers, diastereomers, and other stereoisomers, which may be defined from the viewpoint of absolute stereochemistry as (R)- or (S)-, or for amino acids as (D)- or (L)-. This disclosure includes all such possible isomers, as well as their racemic and optically pure forms. Optically active (+) and (-), (R)- and (S)-, or (D)- and (L)- isomers can be prepared using chiral synthons or chiral reagents, or can be resolved using conventional techniques, e.g., chromatography and fractional crystallization. Conventional techniques for the preparation / isolation of individual enantiomers include chiral synthesis from suitable optically pure precursors, or resolution of racemics (or racemics of salts or derivatives) using, for example, chiral high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). Where a compound described herein contains an olefinic double bond or other centers resulting in geometric asymmetry, and unless otherwise specified, the compound is intended to include both E and Z geometric isomers. Similarly, all tautomers are also intended to be included.
[0057] A "stereoisomer" refers to a compound in which the same atoms are bonded together by the same bonds but have different three-dimensional structures and are not interchangeable. This disclosure envisions various stereoisomers and mixtures thereof, and includes "enantiomers," which refer to two stereoisomers in which the molecules are non-superimposed mirror images of each other.
[0058] "Pharmaceutical composition" means a formulation of the compound of the Disclosure and a medium commonly accepted in the art for the delivery of the biologically active compound to humans. Such mediums include all pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, diluents, or excipients for the compound of the Disclosure.
[0059] “Effective dose” or “therapeutic effective dose” means the amount of the compound disclosed herein that, when administered to a human subject, is sufficient to treat a cancer such as MPN (as defined below) in that subject. The amount of the compound disclosed which constitutes a “therapeutic effective dose” will vary depending on the compound, the condition and its severity, the method of administration, and the age of the subject being treated, but can be routinely determined by a person skilled in the art, taking into account their knowledge and the disclosure.
[0060] Where “effective dose” or “therapeutic effective dose” is referred to herein, it is understood that it also includes “safe and effective dose” or “therapeutically safe and effective dose.” To be effective, it is understood that the intervention achieves a clinically meaningful response. Similarly, to be safe, it is understood that the intervention does not produce clinically meaningful adverse events, i.e., adverse events that would justify the suspension or discontinuation of treatment.
[0061] A “clinically significant” or “clinically meaningful” response typically means both a statistically significant and meaningful response from the perspective of the patient, clinician, or caregiver, based on a static scale such as the CGI-S or a retrospective assessment of improvement such as the CGI-C, as commonly described in various publications of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, including FDA2018, FDA2019, and FDA2020. Where a treatment or benefit is described herein, it is understood that the treatment or benefit preferably demonstrates clinically significant efficacy in a patient population to a statistically significant degree. A clinically “meaningful” response is synonymous with “improvement.”

[0063] In other embodiments, it is recognized that clinically meaningful improvement is based on the probability of achieving TSS50 or SVR35, and not all patients equally benefit. Therefore, in various embodiments, when compound (1) is administered as monotherapy, a clinically meaningful improvement in TSS50 includes the probability of achieving TSS50 ≥ 30, 35, or 40 percent, and a clinically meaningful improvement in SVR35 includes the probability of achieving SVR35 ≥ 20 or 25 percent. When compound (1) is administered in combination with momerotinib, a clinically meaningful improvement in TSS50 includes the probability of achieving TSS50 ≥ 40 or 45 percent, and a clinically meaningful improvement in SVR35 includes the probability of achieving SVR35 ≥ 20, 25, or 30 percent.

[0064] As used herein, “symptom burden” means constitutional or systemic ("systemic") symptoms (e.g., fatigue, night sweats, weight loss, itching, fever, bone pain, joint pain, or a combination of two or more of these).
[0065] Whenever a treatment method is performed in accordance with this disclosure, it is understood that the treatment method is performed with the aim of achieving a clinically meaningful response.
[0066] In various embodiments, any of the aforementioned clinically meaningful responses are observed for approximately 12 weeks or longer, approximately 24 weeks or longer, approximately 48 weeks or longer, approximately 72 weeks or longer, or approximately 96 weeks or longer.
[0067] As used herein, “to treat” or “to treat” refers to the treatment of a disease or condition in a person having the disease or condition of interest, and includes (i) preventing the development of the disease or condition in the subject, in particular, that the subject is predisposed to the condition but has not yet been diagnosed with the condition; (ii) suppressing the disease or condition, i.e., preventing its onset; (iii) alleviating the disease or condition, i.e., causing regression of the disease or condition; or (iv) alleviating all symptoms resulting from the disease or condition, i.e., relieving pain without addressing the underlying disease or condition.
[0068] With respect to MF, “treating” or “treatment” includes achieving complete or partial remission, cytogenetic or molecular remission of MF, as well as achieving clinical improvement, hematological response (e.g., platelets, red blood cells, and / or white blood cells), splenic response, overall symptom score response, or stable disease (collectively referred to as “improvement” of MF) (sometimes referred to as the IWG-MRT response criteria), these terms being defined in Tefferi, A., et al., Blood 2013, 122:1395-1398 (see in particular Table 1 of Tefferi), and the relevant teachings are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. In various embodiments, any of the aforementioned improvements are observed for approximately 12 weeks or longer, approximately 24 weeks or longer, approximately 48 weeks or longer, approximately 72 weeks or longer, or approximately 96 weeks or longer (i.e., improvement is observed at the above points after the start of treatment, but not at all or any of the points prior to the above points). In some embodiments, any of the aforementioned improvements are observed after approximately 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 48 weeks, 72 weeks, or 96 weeks of treatment (i.e., no improvement is observed until the aforementioned point in time after the start of treatment). In some embodiments, any of the aforementioned improvements are observed after approximately 26 weeks, 40 weeks, 52 weeks, or 80 weeks of treatment.
[0069] As used herein, the terms “disease” and “condition” may be interchangeable, or they may differ in that a particular disease or condition has no known causative agent (and therefore its etiology is not yet known), and is therefore not yet recognized as a disease, but is recognized by clinicians only as an undesirable condition or syndrome characterized by a more or less specific set of symptoms.
[0070] As used herein, the terms “JAK resistance” or “JAK inhibitor resistance” in relation to a disease or condition refer to a human subject having the disease or condition, being treated with a JAK inhibitor, and exhibiting an inadequate or no response. In some embodiments, MPN may be ruxolitinib resistant.
[0071] As used herein, the terms “inadequate” or “inadequate response” with respect to drug therapy refer to human subjects having a relapsed and / or refractory response to a drug (e.g., ruxolitinib and / or fedratinib), human subjects being unable to tolerate (i.e., intolerant to) the drug, or human subjects having a suboptimal response including poor reduction in spleen volume, reduction in overall symptoms, cytokine regulation, survival time, or a combination of two or more of these. In some embodiments, an inadequate response may refer to a lack of reduction in myelofibrosis and / or normalization or increase in platelet count and / or normalization or increase in neutrophil count and / or normalization or increase in hemoglobin count and / or transfusion improvement (including conversion to transfusion independence). In some embodiments, an inadequate response may refer to adverse effects requiring discontinuation of treatment with a JAK inhibitor.
[0072] "Bone marrow dysfunction" refers to a variety of conditions in which the bone marrow does not function properly, including myelosuppression, a state in which the bone marrow does not produce enough blood cells or platelets, and commonly manifests as conditions such as thrombocytopenia (low platelet count), anemia (low hemoglobin concentration), or transfusion dependence. Therefore, whenever a patient treated by the method of this disclosure is said to have poor bone marrow function, the patient may have thrombocytopenia (i.e., a platelet count of 150, 100, 75, or 50 × 10⁶). 9 It is understood that patients may have a combination of these symptoms, including blood glucose levels below 1 / L, anemia (i.e., Hgb levels below 10, 9, or 8), transfusion dependence, or poor bone marrow function.
[0073] "Transfusion-independent" refers to a patient who does not require a blood transfusion and has had an Hgb of 8 or higher for at least 12 weeks. "Transfusion-dependent" refers to a patient who is not transfusion-independent. For example, a transfusion-dependent patient may have required at least one transfusion in the past 12 weeks. In some embodiments, a transfusion-dependent patient may have required two or more transfusions in the past 12 weeks. In other embodiments, a patient may have required one, two, or more transfusions in the past 8 weeks. As used herein, "transfusion improvement" refers to a reduced need for blood transfusions or partial blood transfusions (e.g., red blood cells, white blood cells, and / or platelet transfusions). In some embodiments, a subject may become transfusion-independent (i.e., no longer require blood or partial blood transfusions (e.g., red blood cells, white blood cells, and / or platelet transfusions) based on the 12 weeks generally preceding treatment).
[0074] In some embodiments, subjects may have relapsed after treatment with the drug (e.g., ruxolitinib and / or fedratinib). In some embodiments, “relapsed” or “relapsed response” to the drug refers to human subjects who previously achieved a reduction of 35% or more in spleen volume (also known as “SVR35”) and / or a reduction of 50% or more in the overall symptom score (also known as “TSS50”) during treatment with the drug (e.g., ruxolitinib), but subsequently lost either of these responses during treatment. In some embodiments, subjects may have shown a refractory response to the drug (e.g., ruxolitinib and / or fedratinib). In some embodiments, “refractory” or “refractory response” to the drug refers to human subjects who have never achieved a reduction of 35% or more in spleen volume and / or a reduction of 50% or more in the overall symptom score during treatment with the drug.
[0075] In some embodiments, the subjects have received “prior treatment” with a JAK inhibitor. Prior treatment may have been continued for 3, 6, 9, or 12 months or longer before the decision to initiate administration of compound (1) was made.
[0076] If a patient has received "prior treatment" with a JAK inhibitor and administration of compound (1) is initiated, the administration of the JAK inhibitor may be continued or discontinued based on the medical judgment of the attending physician and the nature of the patient's response to the JAK inhibitor. For example, if the patient shows some response, and that response is suboptimal or plateaus, the physician may choose to continue administration of the JAK inhibitor in combination with compound (1). However, if the patient experiences significant hematological toxicity from the JAK inhibitor, the patient is refractory to the JAK inhibitor, or the patient's disease relapses, the physician may choose to discontinue administration of the JAK inhibitor and administer compound (1) as monotherapy or in combination with another JAK inhibitor and / or an ACVR inhibitor or other MPN treatment.
[0077] If the patient has previously received "prior treatment" with a JAK inhibitor, the most common JAK inhibitor is ruxolitinib. When discontinuing the JAK inhibitor and initiating compound (1) in combination with another JAK inhibitor, compound (1) is most commonly administered in combination with momerotinib.
[0078] In some embodiments, the subject may be resistant to the drug (i.e., drug intolerance) (e.g., ruxolitinib and / or fedratinib). In some embodiments, drug intolerance means that the subject cannot tolerate the side effects of the drug at or below a therapeutic dose. Side effects include, but are not limited to, anemia, thrombocytopenia, transfusion dependence, neutropenia, bruising, dizziness, headache, urinary tract infection, fatigue, shortness of breath, weight gain, gas, diarrhea, constipation, herpes zoster, or two or more of these in combination.
[0079] In some embodiments, subjects may have experienced inferior spleen volume reduction after treatment with the drug (e.g., ruxolitinib and / or fedratinib). In some embodiments, inferior spleen volume reduction may refer to a spleen volume reduction of less than 35% (e.g., less than approximately 30%, less than approximately 25%, less than approximately 20%, less than approximately 15%, less than approximately 10%, less than approximately 5%, less than approximately 1%, or no measurable reduction) based on the subject's baseline spleen volume (i.e., spleen volume before the start of treatment). In other words, the subject does not achieve SVR35. In some embodiments, spleen volume reduction may be measured 24 weeks after the first treatment dose.
[0080] In some embodiments, subjects may have experienced a poor overall symptom reduction after treatment with a drug (e.g., ruxolitinib and / or fedratinib). In some embodiments, a poor response to the drug or poor overall symptom reduction may refer to an overall symptom reduction of less than 50% (e.g., less than approximately 45%, less than approximately 40%, less than approximately 35%, less than approximately 30%, less than approximately 25%, less than approximately 20%, less than approximately 15%, less than approximately 10%, less than approximately 5%, less than approximately 1%, or no measurable reduction). That is, the subject does not achieve TSS50. In some embodiments, overall symptom reduction can be measured 24 weeks after the first treatment dose (i.e., at week 24).
[0081] In some embodiments, subjects may have poor cytokine regulation after treatment with a drug (e.g., ruxolitinib and / or fedratinib). In some embodiments, poor cytokine regulation may refer to a downregulation of less than 20%. In some embodiments, poor cytokine regulation may refer to a downregulation of 15% or less. In some embodiments, poor cytokine regulation may refer to a downregulation of 10% or less. In some embodiments, poor cytokine regulation may refer to the failure of cytokines to return to normal levels (i.e., cytokine levels in a sex-matched healthy cohort).
[0082] In some embodiments, subjects may have had a poor survival time after treatment with a drug (e.g., ruxolitinib and / or fedratinib). In some embodiments, poor survival time may refer to survival time of less than one year after the first treatment dose.
[0083] As used herein, “normal level” or “normalization” refers to the level of a measured component (e.g., platelets, white blood cells (e.g., neutrophils), red blood cells (e.g., hemoglobin), spleen volume, myelofibrosis reduction, overall symptom score, cytokine levels) in a sex-matched healthy cohort. In some embodiments, normalization may result in transfusion improvement (including conversion to transfusion independence).
[0084] As used herein, the terms “1-grade” or “1-grade” in relation to platelet count, hemoglobin count, neutrophil count, or myelofibrosis refer to a change in the grade from 1-grade to a subsequent grade. For example, a change from grade 1 to grade 2 is a 1-grade change, and a change from grade 1 to grade 3 is a 2-grade change. Thus, a 1-grade change may be a change from grade 1 to grade 2, a change from grade 2 to grade 3, or a change from grade 3 to grade 4.

Therefore, a higher platelet grade indicates a more severe condition. The term "upgrade" refers to a change from grade 1 to grade 2, 3, or 4, or from grade 2 to grade 3 or 4, or from grade 3 to grade 4. The term "upgrade" indicates a worsening of the condition from the perspective of platelet count.

Therefore, a higher neutrophil grade indicates a more severe condition. The term "upgrade" refers to a change from Grade 1 to Grade 2, 3, or 4, or from Grade 2 to Grade 3 or 4, or from Grade 3 to Grade 4. The term "upgrade" indicates a worsening of the condition in terms of neutrophil count.

The term "downgrade" refers to an improvement in the patient's condition as measured by the neutrophil count.
[0087] As used herein, "Grade 1" refers to a subject with a hemoglobin count of 10.0 g / dL or higher; "Grade 2" refers to a subject with a hemoglobin count of less than 10.0 g / dL but 8.0 g / dL or higher; and "Grade 3" refers to a subject with a hemoglobin count of less than 8.0 g / dL. Therefore, a higher hemoglobin grade indicates a more severe condition. The term "upgrade" refers to a change from Grade 1 to Grade 2 or 3, or from Grade 2 to Grade 3. The term "upgrade" indicates a worsening of the condition from the perspective of hemoglobin count. The term "downgrade" refers to a change from Grade 3 to Grade 2 or 1, or from Grade 2 to Grade 1. The term "downgrade" indicates an improvement in the condition from the perspective of hemoglobin count.
[0088] As used herein, “myelofibrosis reduction,” “BMFR,” or “myelofibrosis reduction” refers to an improvement or reduction in myelofibrosis of grade 1 or higher.
[0089] As used herein, “Grade 1” in relation to the myelofibrosis in question refers to a loose network of reticulans with many crossings, particularly in the perivascular region. “Grade 2” refers to a diffuse and dense increase in reticulans with extensive crossings, sometimes accompanied by localized bundles of thick fibers, primarily corresponding to collagen, and / or localized osteosclerosis. “Grade 3” refers to a diffuse and dense increase in reticulans with extensive crossings, accompanied by coarse bundles of thick fibers, primarily corresponding to collagen, and usually accompanied by osteosclerosis. Thus, a higher grade of myelofibrosis indicates a more severe condition. The term “upgrade” refers to a change from Grade 1 to Grade 2, 3, or 4, or from Grade 2 to Grade 3 or 4, or from Grade 3 to Grade 4. The term “upgrade” indicates a worsening of the condition from the perspective of myelofibrosis. The term “downgrade” refers to a change from Grade 4 to Grade 3, 2, or 1, or from Grade 3 to Grade 2 or 1, or from Grade 2 to Grade 1. The term "downgrade" refers to an improvement in the condition of myelofibrosis from a medical perspective.
[0090] As used herein, “spleen volume” is assessed using either a CT or MRI scan of the abdomen to determine the volume of the spleen during treatment. Subjects whose spleen volume has decreased by 20% or more (i.e., decreased spleen volume) at week 24 (i.e., week 24) compared to their spleen volume before the first treatment dose are designated as having decreased spleen volume in response to SVR20 treatment. In some embodiments, subjects may have a decrease of 35% or more in spleen volume at week 24 (i.e., week 24) compared to their spleen volume before the first treatment dose and are designated as having decreased spleen volume in response to SVR35 treatment.

[0100] As used herein, “increasing” or “increasing” means increasing the daily dose of a compound or drug disclosed herein. This may include increasing the amount of the compound or drug in any given dose (e.g., increasing the dose from 100 mg to 200 mg) and / or increasing the number of daily doses of the compound or drug (e.g., increasing the number of daily doses from once daily to twice daily). Increasing the dose and / or daily dose of compound (1) results in an increase in the total daily dose of compound (1) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Elevating the dose and / or frequency of daily administration of ruxolitinib, fedratinib, pacritinib, momerotinib, ruspatercept, lopeginterferon alfa-2b, or nabutemadeline results in an increase in the total daily dose of ruxolitinib, fedratinib, pacritinib, momerotinib, ruspatercept, lopeginterferon alfa-2b, or nabutemadeline, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In some embodiments, the elevation can be initiated from a predetermined starting dose. In some embodiments, the elevation can be performed every four weeks. In some embodiments, dose escalation may be continued until the maximum tolerable dose level is reached, or sooner if the subject shows MNP (e.g., MF) improvement, such as a decrease in myelofibrosis, a decrease in overall symptoms, cytokine regulation (e.g., a decrease or normalization of cytokines), normalization or increase in platelet count, normalization or increase in neutrophil count, normalization or increase in hemoglobin count, transfusion improvement (including conversion to transfusion independence), a decrease in spleen volume, or a combination of two or more of these. In some embodiments, myelofibrosis, overall symptom score, cytokine levels, platelet count, neutrophil count, hemoglobin count, and / or spleen volume may be measured every 2-4 weeks during treatment.
[0101] As used herein, “tasting” or “tasting” means reducing the daily dose of a compound or drug disclosed herein. This may include reducing the amount of the compound or drug in any given dose, and / or reducing the number of daily doses of the compound or drug. For example, the amount of the compound or drug may be reduced by half (e.g., reducing a dose from 200 mg to 100 mg), and / or the number of daily doses may be reduced by half (e.g., reducing the number of daily doses from twice a day to once a day). Tasting the dose and / or daily dose of compound (1) results in a reduction in the total daily dose of compound (1) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Gradually reducing the dose and / or frequency of daily administration of ruxolitinib, fedratinib, pacritinib, momerotinib, ruspatercept, lopeginterferon alfa-2b, or nabutemadeline results in a reduction in the total daily dose of ruxolitinib, fedratinib, pacritinib, momerotinib, ruspatercept, lopeginterferon alfa-2b, or nabutemadeline, or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts. Sometimes it may be necessary to interrupt the administration of compound (1). For example, administration may be stopped and then resumed after a certain period. The interruption may last for a number of days, until the side effect disappears and / or until the platelet count of the subject being treated exceeds a certain amount. In some embodiments, subjects being treated with a stable dose of a JAK inhibitor and compound (1) may have their administration of compound (1) interrupted if a new adverse event occurs. In some embodiments, administration of compound (1) may be resumed after the adverse event has disappeared. In some embodiments, if an adverse event recurs upon resumption of administration of compound (1), the total daily dose of compound (1) may be reduced. In some embodiments, if an adverse event recurs upon resumption of administration of compound (1), administration of compound (1) may be discontinued. In other embodiments, instead of discontinuation, the total daily dose of compound (1) may be reduced or kept the same, depending on the severity of the adverse event.In some embodiments, if the adverse event is a decrease in platelet count, the resolution of the adverse event may be achieved when the target platelet count increases to the platelet count that would have been achieved if treated with the JAK inhibitor alone (i.e., the baseline JAK inhibitor platelet count of the target). In some embodiments, if the adverse event is a decrease in platelet count, the resolution of the adverse event may be achieved when the target platelet count increases by one grade (e.g., from grade 4 to grade 3). In some embodiments, if the adverse event is a decrease in platelet count, the resolution of the adverse event may be achieved when the target platelet count increases by at least 25 × 10⁻⁶. 9 This can be achieved when the platelet count increases by 1 / L. In some embodiments, if the adverse event is a decrease in platelet count, the disappearance of the adverse event can be achieved when the target platelet count increases by at least 35%.
[0102] In this specification, the terms “substantial,” “substantial,” and “non-substantial” may be used to characterize the absence of side effects from the disclosed treatment. As used herein, “substantial,” “substantial,” or “non-substantial” means about 45% or less. In some embodiments, “substantial” means about 40% or less. In some embodiments, “substantial” means about 35% or less. In some embodiments, “substantial” means about 30% or less, about 25% or less, about 20% or less, about 15% or less, or about 10% or less. For example, in some embodiments, a decrease of 35% or less in the platelet count of the subject is not a substantial decrease (including about 34% or less, about 33% or less, about 32% or less, about 31% or less, about 30% or less, about 25% or less, about 20% or less, about 15% or less, about 10% or less, or about 5% or less). In some embodiments, a substantial decrease in the platelet count of the subject is less than one grade (i.e., a decrease in the platelet count such that the subject remains at the same grade). In contrast, as used herein, “substantial” or “effectively” means about 25% or more. In some embodiments, “substantial” means about 30% or more, about 35% or more, about 40% or more, about 45% or more, about 50% or more, or about 55% or more.
[0103] As used herein, “stable” means little to no change, such as a change of about ±10% or less. In some embodiments, stable means about ±8%. In some embodiments, stable means about ±5%, about ±2%, or about ±1%. For example, in some embodiments, if the platelet count of a subject remains stable (i.e., ±10%), it does not substantially decrease. In some embodiments, the platelet count, hemoglobin, neutrophil count, or myelofibrosis of a subject is stable if the subject remains at the same grade (e.g., the platelet count decreases, but the subject remains at grade 2). In some embodiments, if disease stability is achieved, monotherapy with compound (1) or combination therapy including compound (1) is continued at the dose at which stability was achieved.
[0104] As used herein, “overall symptom reduction” and similar terms mean a reduction of approximately 50% or more (also known as TSS50) from the subject’s overall symptom score immediately prior to the initiation of treatment (including approximately 55% or more, approximately 60% or more, approximately 65% or more, approximately 70% or more, approximately 75% or more, approximately 80% or more, approximately 85% or more, approximately 90% or more, approximately 95% or more, approximately 99% or more, or approximately 100%). The symptoms used to determine the overall symptom score are provided in the MPN Symptom Assessment Form (MPN-SAF) (Scherber R et al., Blood (2011) 118 (2): 401-408), the Myelofibrosis Symptom Assessment Form (MFSAF or MF-SAF) (Mesa RA et al, Res 2009, vol. 33(9) (pg. 1199-1203)), and the MPN-SAF TSS abbreviated version of MPN-SAF (Emanuel R. et al., Journal of Clinical Oncology 30, no. 33 (November 20, 2012) 4098-4103) (all incorporated herein by reference).
[0105] All of these questionnaires require subjects to numerically score their symptoms and include questions about symptoms such as fatigue, early satiety, abdominal discomfort, lethargy, difficulty concentrating, night sweats, pruritus, diffuse bone pain, left subcostal pain, fever, and unintentional weight loss. If accuracy of the above questionnaires is required, the applicable versions of MPN-SAF and MPN-SAF TSS50 are the versions effective as of October 30, 2022. Version 4 is the applicable version of MFSAF. As with any other tests administered in this disclosure, a subject who has achieved TSS50 with version 4 of MFSAF does not need to be administered version 4 again, as long as the subject experiences TSS50 with version 4, if administered.
[0106] If the embodiment is based on a reduction in all symptoms in MF subjects in MFSAF, it is understood that a similar reduction may be achieved in MPN-SAF or MPN-SAF TSS in MPN subjects (particularly ET, PV, and MF subjects), and vice versa. In some embodiments, the reduction in all symptoms is measured about 4 weeks after the first therapeutic dose, at which point a TSS of 50 may be observed. In some embodiments, the reduction in all symptoms is measured about 12 weeks after the first therapeutic dose, at which point a TSS of 50 may be observed. In some embodiments, the reduction in all symptoms is measured about 24 weeks after the first therapeutic dose, at which point a TSS of 50 may be observed. In some embodiments, the reduction in all symptoms is measured about 36 weeks after the first therapeutic dose, at which point a TSS of 50 may be observed.
[0107] Where used herein, when two drugs are said to have “non-overlapping” toxicities, it means that, based on the toxicity profiles of each drug when administered individually, a person skilled in the art would expect that no particular toxicity would be clinically significant when the two drugs are combined. One or more toxicities can be evaluated, but the toxicities particularly relevant to this disclosure are hematological toxicities such as platelet count, hemoglobin concentration, and transfusion dependence. As thus defined, compound (1), when used in combination with the drugs at the dose levels reported in Table V, does not have overlapping hematological toxicities with ruxolitinib or momerotinib in terms of thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, or anemia.
[0108] As used herein, “increased neutrophil count” or “increased neutrophils” refers to an increase in neutrophils or an increase in white blood cells.
[0109] As used herein, “increase in hemoglobin count” or “increase in hemoglobin” means an increase in hemoglobin or an increase in red blood cells.
[0110] As used herein, “approximately” means ±10% of a given value. In some embodiments, “approximately” may be ±5% of a given value. In some embodiments, “approximately” may be ±2% of a given value. All numerical values reported herein may be modified by the term “approximately” and further expressed based on the aforementioned positive or negative percentages.

[0285] In some embodiments, the myeloproliferative neoplasm is myelofibrosis.
[0286] In some embodiments, the myelofibrosis is a moderate-risk myelofibrosis.
[0287] In some embodiments, myelofibrosis is a high-risk myelofibrosis.
[0288] In some embodiments, the myelofibrosis is primary myelofibrosis.
[0289] In some embodiments, the myelofibrosis is secondary myelofibrosis (e.g., post-PV myelofibrosis and post-ET myelofibrosis).
[0290] In some embodiments, the pharmaceutically acceptable salt is a hydrochloride salt.
[0291] In some embodiments, the hydrochloride salt of compound (1) is in crystalline form.
[0292] In some embodiments, the administration of compound (1) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is for a period of about one week to about two years.
[0293] In some embodiments, the administration of compound (1) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is for a period of about 15 weeks to about 1 year.
[0294] In some embodiments, the administration of compound (1) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is for approximately 24 weeks to approximately 1 year.
[0295] In some embodiments, subjects with MF are stratified into risk groups using the Dynamic International Prognostic Scoring System (DIPSS), the Mutation-enhanced International Prognostic Scoring System plus karyotype (MIPSS70+), or other systems. Risk factors using DIPSS include age, symptom burden (e.g., weight loss, fever, excessive sweating), white blood cell count, hemoglobin, and peripheral blast count. Patients with low-risk MF have a DIPSS score of 0. In some embodiments, MF is considered low-risk MF.
[0296] Patients with moderate-risk MF have a DIPSS score of 1–4. A DIPSS score of 1–2 is also called moderate-1 risk and is typically associated with a median survival time of approximately 14.2 years. A DIPSS score of 3 or 4 is also called moderate-2 risk and is typically associated with a median survival time of 4 years. In some embodiments, MF is moderate-risk MF (e.g., moderate-1 risk MF, moderate-2 risk MF).
[0297] High-risk MF patients have a DIPSS score of 5 or 6 and are associated with a median survival time of 1.5 years. In some embodiments, MF is high-risk MF.
[0298] In some embodiments, MPN is ruxolitinib-resistant MPN (e.g., ruxolitinib-resistant MF). In some embodiments, MPN (e.g., MF) has been previously treated with ruxolitinib in the absence of a PIM kinase inhibitor (i.e., compound (1) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof).
[0299] In some embodiments, treating MPN according to the methods described herein results in complete remission of the subject. When used to refer to human subjects with MPN, such as MF, “complete remission” means that the subject meets the following criteria for at least 12 weeks: the bone marrow is age-adjusted normal cellularity, blasts are less than 5%, MF is grade 1 or less according to the European classification, peripheral blood hemoglobin is ≥ 100 g / L and below the upper limit of normal (UNL), and the neutrophil count is 1 × 10⁶ 9 The platelet count is above / L, below the upper limit of normal (UNL), and 100 × 10⁶ 9 The myelocyte count is greater than / L, less than UNL, and less than 2% are immature myelocytes. However, in splenectomy patients, less than 5% are immature myelocytes, there is no disappearance of disease symptoms (e.g., all symptoms), no palpable spleen or liver, and no findings of extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH).
[0300] In some embodiments, treating MPN according to the methods described herein results in partial remission in the subject. When used to refer to human subjects having MPN, such as MF, “partial remission” means that the subject meets the following criteria for at least 12 weeks: hemoglobin is ≥ 100 g / L, < UNL, and peripheral blood neutrophil count is 1 × 10⁶ 9 The platelet count is greater than or equal to / L, less than UNL, and 100 × 10⁶ 9 The myelocyte count is greater than or equal to 1 / L, less than 100 g / L, and less than 2% are immature myelocytes. However, in splenectomized patients, less than 5% are immature myelocytes, there is no resolution of disease symptoms (e.g., all symptoms), no palpable spleen or liver, and no findings of extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH). Alternatively, "partial remission" is defined as bone marrow showing age-adjusted normal cells, less than 5% blasts, MF grade 1 or less according to the European classification, hemoglobin ≥ 85 but less than 100 g / L, and peripheral blood neutrophil count 1 × 10⁶ 9 The platelet count is greater than or equal to / L and less than UNL; and the platelet count is greater than or equal to 50, and 100 × 10 9A value of less than / L and less than 2% indicates immature myelocytes. However, in splenectomy patients, less than 5% of myelocytes are found, along with the absence of disease symptoms (e.g., all symptoms), palpable spleen and liver, and findings of extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH).
[0301] In some embodiments, treating MPN according to the methods described herein results in complete cytogenetic remission, partial cytogenetic remission, complete molecular remission, or partial molecular remission in the subject. In some embodiments, treating MPN according to the methods described herein results in cytogenetic remission or molecular remission in the subject.
[0302] As used herein, “cytogenetic complete remission” or “molecular complete remission” refers to a subject in whom the pre-existing abnormality has disappeared for six months or longer.
[0303] As used herein, “cytogenetic partial remission” means a patient who has at least 10 abnormal metaphasias prior to treatment and whose abnormal metaphasias have decreased by 50% or more.
[0304] In some embodiments, subjects may have progenitor cells with acquired mutations in the JAK2, CALR, and MPL genes. For example, common mutations in JAK2 include the V617F mutation and mutations in exon 12 (e.g., substitutions, deletions, insertions, and duplications). Common mutations in CALR include mutations in exon 9. Common mutations in MPL include mutations in exon 10 (e.g., W515L and W515K). Cytogenetic and molecular testing is typically performed using allele-specific quantitative PCR (qPCR), digital PCR, or next-generation sequencing. The methods described above are outlined in Haslam, K. and Langabeer, SE, “Monitoring Residual Disease in the Myeloproliferative Neoplasms: Current Applications and Emerging Approaches,” Biomed. Res. Intl. 2016:7241591, and the relevant teachings therein are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
[0305] This method can be defined based on other baseline characteristics. Therefore, in some embodiments, subjects have moderate or severe splenomegaly at baseline. In some embodiments, subjects have imaging findings of, for example, 450, 600, 750, 1,000, 1,500, or 2,000 cm². 3 The subjects have the baseline spleen size described above. In some embodiments, the subjects have a total symptom score (TSS) greater than 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, or 50 at baseline. In some embodiments, the subjects require cytokine regulation. In other embodiments, the subjects have the JAK2V16F mutation. In some embodiments, the subjects have the CALR mutation. In some embodiments, the subjects have the MPLW515L mutation.
[0306] In some embodiments, subjects are characterized by poor bone marrow function at baseline. Therefore, in some embodiments, subjects are characterized by thrombocytopenia at baseline (e.g., platelet counts of 150, 100, 75, 50, or 25 × 10⁶). 9 Subjects are characterized by baseline anemia (e.g., Hgb levels ≤ 10, 9, or 8 g / dL). In some embodiments, subjects are characterized by baseline transfusion dependence. In some embodiments, subjects are characterized by baseline severe thrombocytopenia or anemia (i.e., platelet count ≤ 50 × 10⁶ g / dL). 9 Characterized by being below / L or having an Hgb level of 8 g / dL or less.
[0307] In some embodiments, subjects have fibrosis of grade 2 or higher at baseline. In some embodiments, subjects have 1 × 10 at baseline. 9 The subject has an absolute neutrophil count greater than / L. In some embodiments, the subject has fewer than 10% peripheral hemoblasts at baseline.
[0308] In some embodiments, myeloproliferative neoplasms are responsive to selective PIM1 inhibition. For example, myeloproliferative neoplasms respond to PIM1 / PIM2 IC2 values less than 0.05, 0.045, 0.035, 0.03, or 0.025. 50 Responsive to selective PIM1 kinase inhibitors with a ratio, IC 50 This is determined to be described in Foulks, Neoplasia Vol. 16, No. 5, 2014.
[0309] Pharmaceutical composition Other embodiments relate to pharmaceutical compositions. PIM kinase inhibitors (i.e., compound (1) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof) and / or JAK inhibitors (e.g., ruxolitinib, fedratinib, pacritinib, momerotinib, or ruspatercept, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof) and / or ACVR inhibitors (e.g., momerotinib, pacritinib, ruspatercept, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof), lopeg interferon alpha-2b, nabutemadeline, or other therapeutic agents can be formulated together or separately according to methods known in the art. Certain embodiments include a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient, a PIM kinase inhibitor and / or a JAK inhibitor and / or an ACVR inhibitor. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition includes a PIM kinase inhibitor and / or a JAK inhibitor and / or an ACVR inhibitor according to any of the embodiments described above.
[0310] In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition is formulated for oral administration. In other embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition is formulated for injection.
[0311] Appropriate routes of administration include, but are not limited to, oral, intravenous, rectal, aerosol, parenteral, ophthalmic, pulmonary, transmucosal, transdermal, vaginal, ophthalmic, nasal, and topical administration. Furthermore, as merely an example, parenteral delivery includes intramuscular, subcutaneous, intravenous, intrathecal, intrathecal, intraventricular, intraperitoneal, lymphatic, and nasal administration routes.
[0312] In certain embodiments, the compounds described herein are administered topically rather than systemically, for example, by direct injection of the compound into an organ, often in the form of depot or sustained-release formulations. In specific embodiments, long-acting formulations are administered by transplantation (e.g., subcutaneous or intramuscular) or intramuscular injection. Furthermore, in other embodiments, the drug is delivered by a targeted drug delivery system, for example, liposomes coated with organ-specific antibodies. In such embodiments, the liposomes are targeted to an organ and selectively taken up by the organ. In yet another embodiment, the compounds described herein are provided in the form of a rapid-release formulation, a sustained-release formulation, or a moderate-release formulation. In yet another embodiment, the compounds described herein are administered topically.
[0313] In some embodiments, PIM kinase inhibitors and / or JAK kinase inhibitors and / or ACVR inhibitors are administered in a single dose. Typically, such administration is carried out by injection, e.g., intravenous injection, to rapidly deliver the drug. However, other routes may be used as appropriate. Thus, in some embodiments, PIM kinase inhibitors (i.e., compound (1) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof) and / or JAK kinase inhibitors (e.g., ruxolitinib, fedratinib, pacritinib, momerotinib, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof) and / or ACVR inhibitors (e.g., momerotinib, pacritinib, ruspatercept, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof) or lopeg interferon alpha-2b or nabutemadeline are administered orally.
[0314] In some embodiments, a PIM kinase inhibitor (i.e., compound (1) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof), a JAK kinase inhibitor, and / or ACVR are administered in multiple doses. In some embodiments, administration is approximately once, twice, three times, four times, five times, six times, or six or more times per day. In other embodiments, administration is approximately once a month, once every two weeks, once a week, or once every other day. In yet another embodiment, a PIM kinase inhibitor and another drug (e.g., a JAK2 inhibitor) are administered together approximately once to six times per day. In yet another embodiment, administration of a PIM kinase inhibitor and another drug (e.g., a JAK inhibitor) continues for less than seven days. In yet another embodiment, administration continues for approximately six, ten, fourteen, or twenty-eight days, two months, six months, or more than one year. In yet another embodiment, administration continues for approximately seven days to approximately five years (e.g., approximately seven days to approximately two years, or approximately seven days to approximately one year). In another embodiment, administration continues for 28 days. In yet another embodiment, administration continues for one year. In some cases, continuous administration is achieved and maintained for as long as necessary.
[0315] Administration of PIM kinase inhibitors and, optionally, JAK or ACVR inhibitors may be continued for as long as necessary. In some embodiments, PIM kinase inhibitors and, optionally, JAK or ACVR inhibitors are administered for more than 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 14, or 28 days. In some embodiments, PIM kinase inhibitors and, optionally, JAK or ACVR inhibitors are administered for less than 28, 14, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, or 1 day. In some embodiments, PIM kinase inhibitors and, optionally, JAK or ACVR inhibitors are administered continuously and chronically, for example, to treat chronic effects.
[0316] In some embodiments, one or more cycles (e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 cycles, etc.) of a PIM kinase inhibitor (i.e., compound (1) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof) and / or a JAK kinase inhibitor (e.g., ruxolitinib or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof) and / or an ACVR inhibitor are administered. In some embodiments, the PIM kinase inhibitor (i.e., compound (1) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof) and / or a JAK kinase inhibitor (e.g., ruxolitinib or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof) and / or an ACVR inhibitor are administered in one cycle, for example, a 28-day cycle. Thus, in some embodiments, one or more cycles of the PIM kinase inhibitor and / or a JAK kinase inhibitor (e.g., the PIM kinase inhibitor) are each administered independently once or twice daily for 28 days in a 28-day cycle.
[0317] In some embodiments, PIM kinase inhibitors, and optionally JAK or ACVR inhibitors, are administered in doses. Due to within-subject variability in the pharmacokinetics of the compounds, individualization of the dosing regimen is provided in certain embodiments. The dosages of the compounds in embodiments of this disclosure may be found by routine experiments in light of this disclosure and / or derived by those skilled in the art.
[0318] In some embodiments, PIM kinase inhibitors and, optionally, JAK or ACVR inhibitors are formulated into pharmaceutical compositions. In specific embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition is formulated in a conventional manner using one or more physiologically acceptable carriers comprising excipients and adjuvants that facilitate the processing of the active compound into a pharmaceutically usable formulation. Appropriate formulation depends on the selected route of administration. Any pharmaceutically acceptable techniques, carriers, and excipients suitable for formulating the pharmaceutical compositions described herein may be used: Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, Nineteenth Ed (Easton, Pa.: Mack Publishing Company, 1995); Hoover, John E., Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, Mack Publishing Co., Easton, Pennsylvania 1975; Liberman, HA and Lachman, L., Eds., Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms, Marcel Decker, New York, NY, 1980; and Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms and Drug Delivery Systems, Seventh Ed.
