AI Technical Summary
The lack of reliable biomarkers for CDK2 enzymatic and oncogenic activity hinders the development of effective CDK2-targeted anticancer therapies, as there are currently no FDA-approved drugs targeting CDK2, and existing methods lack specificity and efficacy in identifying suitable treatment candidates.
The use of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A (CDKN2A) as a biomarker for predicting sensitivity to CDK2-targeted therapy, particularly in G1/S-specific cyclin E1-amplified cells, and the phosphorylation level of retinoblastoma-associated protein (Rb) at serine 780 as a pharmacodynamic marker for monitoring treatment response, combined with CDK2 inhibitor administration.
This approach allows for personalized treatment strategies by identifying subjects likely to respond to CDK2 inhibitors, enhancing treatment efficacy and specificity in CDK2-related diseases, such as cancer, by using CDKN2A and CCNE1 amplification as predictive markers.

[0003] This invention generally relates to biomarkers and cancer. [Background technology]
[0004] Cyclin-dependent kinases ("CDKs") are a family of serine / threonine kinases. When CDKs heterodimerized with regulatory subunits known as cyclins are fully activated, they become the driving force behind the cell cycle and cell division. Uncontrolled proliferation is a prominent feature of cancer cells, and misregistration of CDK function occurs frequently in many tumors. CDK2 and CDK4 are of particular interest because their activity is frequently dysregulated in a wide variety of human cancers. Therefore, CDKs are recognized as attractive targets for the design and development of compounds that can specifically bind to and inhibit the activity of CDKs in cancer cells, thus potentially functioning as therapeutic agents. Potent and highly selective CDK4 / 6 inhibitors, palbociclib, abemaciclib, and ribociclib, have been developed and approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") for the treatment of ER+ advanced breast tumors. Despite considerable effort, there are currently no FDA-approved drugs targeting CDK2. The lack of biomarkers that reliably report the enzymatic and / or oncogenic activity of CDK2 has hindered the development of effective target-associated assays for advanced discovery and optimization. There is a clear need to identify biomarkers for CDK2-mediated carcinogenesis to provide rapid and effective means for the development and evaluation of CDK2-targeted anticancer therapies. [Overview of the project]
[0005] The present invention is at least partially based on the discovery that the functional state of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A (also known as "CDKN2A" or "p16") is a biomarker for predicting sensitivity to CDK2-targeted therapy in G1 / S-specific cyclin E1- ("CCNE1-")-amplified cells, which is suitable for use in patient stratification. In addition, the present invention is at least partially based on the discovery that in CCNE1-amplified cell lines, the phosphorylation level of human retinoblastoma-associated protein ("Rb") at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3 is a pharmacodynamic marker of CDK2 activity and is suitable for use in cell assays or preclinical and clinical applications, such as monitoring the course of treatment with CDK2 inhibitors or the response to treatment.

In certain embodiments, the prediction method described herein predicts that a subject will respond to treatment with a CDK2 inhibitor with an accuracy of at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90%, at least 95%, at least 98%, or 100%. For example, in some embodiments, the prediction method described herein is applied to 10 subjects who have, are suspected of having, or are at risk of developing a CDK2-related disease or disorder, and 8 of those 10 subjects are predicted to respond to treatment with a CDK2 inhibitor based on the prediction method described herein, and 7 of those 8 subjects actually respond to treatment with a CDK2 inhibitor, then the accuracy of the prediction method is 87.5% (7 divided by 8). A subject is considered to respond to a CDK2 inhibitor if it shows any improvement in its disease state, such as a reduction or alleviation of symptoms, or remission / recovery of the disease.
[0047] CCNE1 and p16 In the examples, CCNE1 and p16 have been identified as genes that, when combined, are useful in predicting the responsiveness to CDK2 inhibitors (e.g., improvement of the disease as demonstrated by remission / recovery) in subjects with CDK2-related diseases or disorders.
[0048] p16 (also known as cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A, cyclin-dependent kinase 4 inhibitor A, multiple tumor suppressor 1, and p16-INK4a) functions as a negative regulator of normal cell proliferation by interacting with CDK4 and CDK6. p16 is encoded by the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A ("CDKN2A") gene (GenBank accession number NM_000077). The cellular location of the CDKN2A gene is 9p21.3, which is position 21.3 on the short (p) arm of chromosome 9. The molecular location of the CDKN2A gene is base pairs 21,967,752–21,995,043 on chromosome 9 (Homo sapiens Annotation Release 109, GRCh38.p12). Genetic and epigenetic abnormalities in the gene encoding p16 are thought to lead to avoidance of aging and cancer development (Okamoto et al., 1994, PNAS 91(23):11045-9). Non-exclusive examples of genetic abnormalities in the gene encoding p16 are listed in Table 1 below. The amino acid sequence of human p16 is provided below (GenBank accession number NP_000068 / UniProtKB accession number P42771): 1 MEPAAGSSME PSADWLATAA ARGRVEEVRA LLEAGALPNA PNSYGRRPIQ VMMMGSARVA 61 ELLLLHGAEP NCADPATLTR PVHDAAREGF LDTLVVLHRA GARLDVRDAW GRLPVDLAEE 121 LGHRDVARYL RAAAGGTRGS NHARIDAAEG PSDIPD (Sequence ID 1).
[0049] CCNE1 is a cell cycle factor essential for regulating the G1 / S transition phase of the cell cycle (Ohtsubo et al., 1995, Mol.Cell.Biol.15:2612-2624). CCNE1 functions as a regulatory subunit of CDK2, interacting 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 is provided below (GenBank accession number NP_001229 / UniProtKB accession number P24864): 1 mprerrerda kerdtmkedg gaefsarsrk rkanvtvflq dpdeemakid rtardqcgsq 61 pwdnnavcad pcsliptpdk edddrvypns tckpriiaps rgsplpvlsw anreevwkim 121 lnkektylrd qhfleqhpll qpkmrailld wlmevcevyk lhretfylaq dffdrymatq 181 envvktllql igisslfiaa kleeiyppkl hqfayvtdga csgdeiltme lmimkalkwr 241 lspltivswl nvymqvayln dlhevllpqy pqqifiqiae lldlcvldvd crefpygila 301 asalyhfsss elmqkvsgyq wcdiencvkw mvpfamvire tgssklkhfr gvadedahni 361 qthrdsldll dkarakkaml seqnrasplp sglltppqsg kkqssgpema (Sequence ID 2).
[0050] The examples demonstrate that CDK2 knockdown inhibits the proliferation of CCNE1-amplified cell lines, but not of CCNE1-non-amplified cell lines. Conversely, the examples show that CDK4 / 6 inhibition inhibits the proliferation of CCNE1-non-amplified cell lines, but not of CCNE1-amplified cell lines. The examples further demonstrate that the inhibition of cell proliferation observed in CCNE1-amplified cells treated with CDK2 inhibitors requires the presence of a normal (e.g., non-mutant or non-deletion) p16 gene. Therefore, CCNE1 and p16 are both combined biomarkers: that is, cells that respond to treatment with CDK2 inhibitors exhibit amplification of the CCNE1 gene and / or higher CCNE1 expression levels than the control expression level of CCNE1, possess a nucleotide sequence (e.g., gene or mRNA) encoding the p16 protein (e.g., the p16 protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1), and / or the p16 protein is present, while control cells that do not respond to treatment with CDK2 inhibitors do not exhibit amplification of the CCNE1 gene and / or higher CCNE1 expression levels than the control expression level of CCNE1, possess a mutant or deletion gene encoding the p16 protein, and / or tend to lack p16 protein expression. Accordingly, the following methods are provided herein for using (i) amplification of the CCNE1 gene and / or the expression level of CCNE1, and (ii) the presence of a nucleotide sequence encoding the p16 protein, including the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, the presence of a CDKN2A gene lacking one or more inactivating nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions, and / or the expression of the p16 protein, as biomarkers for predicting the response of a human subject to a CDK2 inhibitor in a human subject having, suspecting, or being at risk of having a CDK2-related disease or disorder. In certain embodiments, the human subject has a CDK2-related disease or disorder. In certain embodiments, the human subject is suspected of having, or is at risk of having, a CDK2-related disease or disorder.
[0051] In certain embodiments, a method is provided herein for predicting the response to a CDK2 inhibitor in human subjects who have, are suspected of having, or are at risk of developing a CDK2-related disease or disorder, the method comprising (i) determining from a biological sample obtained from a human subject (a) the nucleotide sequence of the CDKN2A gene, (b) the presence of the CDKN2A gene lacking one or more inactivated nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions, and / or (c) the presence of the p16 protein, and (ii) from a biological sample obtained from a human subject (a) CCN The process involves determining the copy number of the E1 gene and / or the expression level of (b)CCNE1, and it is predicted that a human subject will respond to a CDK2 inhibitor if (1)(a) the presence of a CDKN2A gene encoding the p16 protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, (b) the presence of a CDKN2A gene lacking one or more inactivating nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions, and / or (c) the presence of the p16 protein, and (2)(a) amplification of the CCNE1 gene and / or (b) an expression level of CCNE1 higher than the control expression level of CCNE1. In certain embodiments, the human subject has a CDK2-related disease or disorder. In certain embodiments, the human subject is suspected of having or at risk of developing a CDK2-related disease or disorder. In certain embodiments, determining (i)(a) the nucleotide sequence of the CDKN2A gene, (b) the presence of the CDKN2A gene lacking one or more inactivated nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions, and / or (c) the presence of the p16 protein is performed before administering the CDK2 inhibitor to a human subject (e.g., at least 1 day, at least 2 days, at least 3 days, at least 4 days, at least 5 days, at least 6 days, at least 7 days, at least 2 weeks, at least 3 weeks, or at least 4 weeks, or 6 to 16 hours, 6 to 20 hours, or 6 to 24 hours, 2 to 3 days, 2 to 4 days, 2 to 5 days, 2 to 6 days, 2 to 7 days, 1 to 2 weeks, 1 to 3 weeks, or 1 to 4 weeks prior).In certain embodiments, (ii) determining (a) the copy number of the CCNE1 gene and / or (b) the expression level of CCNE1 in a biological sample obtained from a human subject is performed before administering the CDK2 inhibitor to the human subject (for example, at least 1 day, at least 2 days, at least 3 days, at least 4 days, at least 5 days, at least 6 days, at least 7 days, at least 2 weeks, at least 3 weeks, or at least 4 weeks, or 6 to 16 hours, 6 to 20 hours, or 6 to 24 hours, 2 to 3 days, 2 to 4 days, 2 to 5 days, 2 to 6 days, 2 to 7 days, 1 to 2 weeks, 1 to 3 weeks, or 1 to 4 weeks prior).
[0052] The presence of a CDKN2A gene encoding a p16 protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, the presence of a CDKN2A gene lacking one or more inactivating nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions, and / or the presence of a p16 protein (e.g., a p16 protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1), combined with amplification of the CCNE1 gene and / or a CCNE1 expression level higher than the control expression level of CCNE1, indicates / predicts that human subjects with, suspected of having, or at risk of developing, a CDK2-related disease or disorder will respond to CDK2 inhibitors.
[0053] In some embodiments, the CCNE1 gene is amplified to 3 to 25 copies. In certain embodiments, the CCNE1 gene is amplified to at least 3 copies. In certain embodiments, the CCNE1 gene is amplified to at least 5 copies. In certain embodiments, the CCNE1 gene is amplified to at least 7 copies. In certain embodiments, the CCNE1 gene is amplified to at least 10 copies. In certain embodiments, the CCNE1 gene is amplified to at least 12 copies. In certain embodiments, the CCNE1 gene is amplified to at least 14 copies. In certain embodiments, the CCNE1 gene is amplified to at least 21 copies.
[0054] In certain embodiments, the expression level of CCNE1 is the level of CCNE1 mRNA. In certain embodiments, the expression level of CCNE1 is the level of CCNE1 protein.
[0055] In certain embodiments, the CDKN2A gene encodes a protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1.
[0056] In certain embodiments, one or more inactivating nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions in the CDKN2A gene are as shown in Table 1. In certain embodiments, one or more inactivating nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions in the CDKN2A gene are as described in Yarbrough et al., Journal of the National Cancer Institute, 91(18):1569-1574, 1999, Liggett and Sidransky, Biology of Neoplasia, Journal of Oncology, 16(3):1197-1206, 1998, and Cairns et al., Nature Genetics, 11:210-212, 1995 (each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety). [Table 1-1] [Table 1-2] [Table 1-3] [Table 1-4]
[0057] Rb S780 Phosphorylation of Rb at serine (referred to herein as "Ser780" or "S780") corresponding to amino acid position 780 of Sequence ID No. 3 has been identified in examples as a useful pharmacodynamic marker for evaluating responsiveness to CDK2 inhibitors (e.g., CDK2 inhibition) in human subjects with diseases or disorders involving CCNE1 amplification.
[0058] Rb is a cell cycle regulator and functions as a tumor suppressor. Rb is activated by phosphorylation by cyclin D-CDK4 / 6 at Ser780 and Ser795, and by cyclin E / CDK2 at Ser807 and Ser811. Rb is encoded by the RB transcription corepressor 1 ("RB1") gene (GenBank accession number NM_000321). The amino acid sequence of human Rb is provided below (GenBank accession number NP_000312 / UniProtKB accession number P06400) (S780 is in bold and underlined): [ka]
[0059] As described above, the examples demonstrate that CDK2 knockdown inhibits the proliferation of CCNE1-amplified cell lines but not of CCNE1-non-amplified cell lines. The examples further demonstrate that CDK2 knockdown or inhibition blocks Rb phosphorylation at S780 in CCNE1-amplified cell lines but not in CCNE1-non-amplified cell lines. Therefore, Rb phosphorylation at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3 is a pharmacodynamic marker for evaluating the response to CDK2 inhibition in CCNE1-amplified cancer cells or patients with diseases or disorders involving CCNE1 amplification. Accordingly, a method is provided herein relating to using the level of Rb phosphorylation at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3 as a marker to predict the response of human subjects to CDK2 inhibitors in human subjects who have, are suspected of having, or are at risk of developing CDK2-related diseases or disorders, in which the human subjects have increased CCNE1 expression levels.
[0060] In certain embodiments, a method for evaluating the response to a CDK2 inhibitor in human subjects who have, are suspected of having, or are at risk of developing a CDK2-related disease or disorder is provided herein, and this method is (a) Human subjects have been administered a CDK2 inhibitor, and it has been determined that these human subjects have amplified CCNE1 genes and / or a higher CCNE1 expression level than the control expression level of CCNE1, and (b) The procedure involves measuring the level of Rb phosphorylation at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3 in a biological sample obtained from a human subject after administration in step (a), A decrease in the level of Rb phosphorylation at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3, compared to a control level of Rb phosphorylation at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3, indicates that the human subject is responding to the CDK2 inhibitor. In certain embodiments, the human subject has a CDK2-related disease or disorder. In certain embodiments, the human subject is suspected of having, or at risk of developing, a CDK2-related disease or disorder. In certain embodiments, the human subject has further been determined to have a CDKN2A gene lacking one or more inactivating nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions that prevent the CDKN2A gene from encoding a protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, and / or a p16 protein lacking one or more inactivating amino acid substitutions and / or deletions (e.g., a p16 protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1). In certain embodiments, the measurement in step (b) is performed at least 6 hours, at least 16 hours, at least 20 hours, or at least 24 hours after the administration in step (a). In some embodiments, the measurement in step (b) is performed at least 2 days, at least 3 days, at least 4 days, at least 5 days, at least 6 days, at least 7 days, at least 2 weeks, at least 3 weeks, or at least 4 weeks after the administration in step (a). In certain embodiments, the measurement in step (b) is performed 6 to 16 hours, 6 to 20 hours, or 6 to 24 hours after the administration in step (a). In some embodiments, the measurement in step (b) is performed 2 to 3 days, 2 to 4 days, 2 to 5 days, 2 to 6 days, 2 to 7 days, 1 to 2 weeks, 1 to 3 weeks, or 1 to 4 weeks after the administration in step (a).
[0061] A decrease in Rb phosphorylation levels at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3, when combined with CCNE1 gene amplification and / or CCNE1 expression levels higher than the control expression level, indicates that human subjects with, suspected of having, or at risk of developing, a CDK2-related disease or disorder respond to CDK2 inhibitors. For example, in subjects with CCNE1 gene amplification and / or CCNE1 expression levels higher than the control expression level, a low (e.g., decreased compared to control) or undetectable level of Rb phosphorylation at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3 in biological samples obtained from the subjects after treatment with a CDK2 inhibitor indicates that the subjects respond to the CDK2 inhibitor.
[0062] When biological samples obtained from subjects after administration of a CDK2 inhibitor were compared to a control level of Rb phosphorylation at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3, the decrease in Rb phosphorylation at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3, when combined with (i) amplification of the CCNE1 gene and / or a CCNE1 expression level higher than the control expression level of CCNE1, and (ii) the presence of a CDKN2A gene encoding a p16 protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, the presence of a CDKN2A gene lacking one or more inactivating nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions, and / or the presence of a p16 protein (e.g., a p16 protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1), indicates that human subjects with, suspected of having, or at risk of developing a CDK2-related disease or disorder respond to CDK2 inhibitors. For example, in a human subject having (i) amplification of the CCNE1 gene and / or a CCNE1 expression level higher than the control expression level of CCNE1, and (ii) the presence of a CDKN2A gene encoding a p16 protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, the presence of a CDKN2A gene lacking one or more inactivating nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions, and / or the presence of a p16 protein (e.g., a p16 protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1), a low (e.g., decreased compared to the control) or undetectable Rb phosphorylation level at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3 in a biological sample obtained from the human subject after administration of a CDK2 inhibitor indicates that the human subject is responding to the CDK2 inhibitor.
[0063] In some embodiments, the CCNE1 gene is amplified to 3 to 25 copies. In certain embodiments, the CCNE1 gene is amplified to at least 3 copies. In certain embodiments, the CCNE1 gene is amplified to at least 5 copies. In certain embodiments, the CCNE1 gene is amplified to at least 7 copies. In certain embodiments, the CCNE1 gene is amplified to at least 10 copies. In certain embodiments, the CCNE1 gene is amplified to at least 12 copies. In certain embodiments, the CCNE1 gene is amplified to at least 14 copies. In certain embodiments, the CCNE1 gene is amplified to at least 21 copies.
[0064] In certain embodiments, the expression level of CCNE1 is the level of CCNE1 mRNA. In certain embodiments, the expression level of CCNE1 is the level of CCNE1 protein.
[0065] In certain embodiments, the CDKN2A gene encodes a protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1.
[0066] In certain embodiments, one or more inactivating nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions in the CDKN2A gene are as shown in Table 1. In certain embodiments, one or more inactivating nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions in the CDKN2A gene are as described in Yarbrough et al., Journal of the National Cancer Institute, 91(18):1569-1574, 1999, Liggett and Sidransky, Biology of Neoplasia, Journal of Oncology, 16(3):1197-1206, 1998, and Cairns et al., Nature Genetics, 11:210-212, 1995 (each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety).
[0067] contrast As described above, the method of the present invention may include measuring one or more markers (e.g., biomarkers or pharmacodynamic markers, e.g., amplification of the CCNE1 gene, CCNE1 expression level, presence of the CDKN2A gene encoding the p16 protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, presence of the CDKN2A gene with one or more inactivating nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions, presence of the p16 protein (e.g., the p16 protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1), and Rb phosphorylation at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3) in a biological sample from a human subject who has, is suspected of having, or is at risk of developing, a disease or disorder associated with CDK2. In certain embodiments, the response of a human subject to a treatment including a CDK2 inhibitor is predicted / indicated by the level of one or more biomarkers (e.g., amplification (e.g., for the CCNE1 gene), expression level (e.g., for the CCNE1 or p16 protein), or phosphorylation level (e.g., for Rb)) compared to a control level of one or more biomarkers. In certain embodiments, a human subject is identified as potentially responsive to a CDK2 inhibitor if (i) the CCNE1 gene is amplified and / or the expression level of CCNE1 is higher than the control expression level of CCNE1, and (ii) a CDKN2A gene is present that encodes the p16 protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, a CDKN2A gene lacking one or more inactivating nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions is present, and / or the p16 protein (e.g., the p16 protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1) is present.In other embodiments, a human subject is identified as responding to a CDK2 inhibitor if (i) the CCNE1 gene is amplified and / or the expression level of CCNE1 is higher than the control expression level of CCNE1, and (ii) in a biological sample from a human subject after administration of a CDK2 inhibitor, the level of Rb phosphorylation at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3 is lower than the control level of Rb phosphorylation at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3. In yet another embodiment, a human subject is identified as responding to a CDK2 inhibitor if (i) the CCNE1 gene is amplified and / or the expression level of CCNE1 is higher than the control expression level of CCNE1; (ii) a CDKN2A gene encoding a p16 protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 is present, a CDKN2A gene lacking one or more inactivating nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions is present, and / or a p16 protein (e.g., a p16 protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1) is present; and (iii) in a biological sample from a human subject after administration of a CDK2 inhibitor, the level of Rb phosphorylation at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3 is lower than the control level of Rb phosphorylation at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3. In this context, the term “control” includes samples (from the same tissue type) obtained from human subjects known not to respond to a CDK2 inhibitor. The term “control” also includes samples (from the same tissue type) previously obtained from human subjects known not to respond to CDK2 inhibitors and used as a reference for future comparison with test samples taken from human subjects expected to be therapeutically responsive.A “control” level (e.g., gene copy number, expression level, or phosphorylation level) of a specific biomarker (e.g., CCNE1, p16, or Rb phosphorylation) in a particular cell type or tissue may be pre-defined by an analysis of biomarker levels (e.g., expression level or phosphorylation level) in one or more human subjects (e.g., two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, fifteen, twenty, twenty-five, thirty, thirty-five, or forty or more) who did not respond to treatment with a CDK2 inhibitor. This pre-defined reference value (which may be the mean or median level (e.g., gene copy number, expression level, or phosphorylation level) obtained from multiple human subjects who did not respond to therapy) may then be used as the “control” level of the biomarker (e.g., CCNE1, p16, or Rb phosphorylation) in comparison to the test sample. In such comparisons, human subjects are predicted to respond to CDK2 inhibitors if (i) the CCNE1 gene is amplified and / or the expression level of CCNE1 is higher than a predefined reference, and if the CDKN2A gene encoding the p16 protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 is present, or if the CDKN2A gene lacking one or more inactivating nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions is present, and / or if the p16 protein (e.g., the p16 protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1) is present. In another such comparison, human subjects are predicted to respond to CDK2 inhibitors if (i) the CCNE1 gene is amplified and / or the expression level of CCNE1 is higher than a predefined reference, and (ii) after administration of the CDK2 inhibitor to the human subjects, the Rb phosphorylation level at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3 is lower than a predefined reference.In yet another such comparison, human subjects are shown to respond to CDK2 inhibitors if (i) the CCNE1 gene is amplified and / or the expression level of CCNE1 is higher than a pre-defined reference, (ii) a CDKN2A gene encoding the p16 protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 is present, a CDKN2A gene lacking one or more inactivating nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions is present and / or the p16 protein (e.g., a p16 protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1) is present, and (iii) after administration of the CDK2 inhibitor to human subjects, the Rb phosphorylation level at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3 is lower than a pre-defined reference.
[0068] Alternatively, a “control” level for a specific biomarker in a particular cell type or tissue may be predefined by an analysis of biomarker levels in one or more human subjects responding to treatment with a CDK2 inhibitor. This predefined reference value (which may be the mean or median level (e.g., expression level or phosphorylation level) obtained from multiple human subjects responding to the therapy) may then be used as the “control” level (e.g., expression level or phosphorylation level) in comparison with the test sample. In such a comparison, a human subject is indicated to respond to the CDK2 inhibitor if the level of the biomarker being analyzed (e.g., copy number of the CCNE1 gene, expression level of CCNE1, expression level of p16, or Rb phosphorylation level at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3) is equal to or equivalent to the predefined reference (e.g., at least 85% but less than 115% of the reference).
[0069] In certain embodiments, the “control” is a predetermined cutoff value. The cutoff value is typically a level of a biomarker (e.g., copy number, expression level, or phosphorylation level) that, when exceeded or below, is considered to predict the responsiveness of a human subject to the therapy of interest. Therefore, according to the methods and compositions described herein, a reference level (e.g., CCNE1 gene copy number, CCNE1 expression, p16 expression, or Rb phosphorylation at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3) is identified as the cutoff value, and when exceeded or below, it predicts the responsiveness to the CDK2 inhibitor. The cutoff value determined for use in the methods described herein may, for example, be compared to a published concentration range, but may be individualized to the methodology and patient population used.
[0070] In some embodiments, the expression level of CCNE1 is increased compared to the expression level of CCNE1 in the control. For example, the expression level of CCNE1 analyzed is at least 1.5 times, at least 2 times, at least 3 times, at least 4 times, at least 5 times, at least 6 times, at least 7 times, at least 8 times, at least 9 times, at least 10 times, at least 20 times, at least 25 times, at least 50 times, at least 75 times, or at least 100 times higher than the expression level of CCNE1 in the control, or at least 10%, at least 20%, at least 30%, at least 40%, at least 50%, at least 60%, It could be at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90%, at least 100%, at least 200%, at least 300%, at least 400%, at least 500%, at least 600%, at least 700%, at least 800%, at least 900%, at least 1,000%, at least 1,500%, at least 2,000%, at least 2,500%, at least 3,000%, at least 3,500%, at least 4,000%, at least 4,500%, or at least 5,000% higher.
[0071] The p16 protein is present if the protein is detectable by any assay known in the art or described herein, such as Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, fluorescence-activated cell sorting, and enzyme-linked immunoassays. In some embodiments, the p16 protein is present at an expression level of at least 5%, at least 10%, at least 20%, or at least 30% of the p16 expression level in healthy controls.
[0072] In some embodiments, the Rb phosphorylation level at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3 being analyzed is reduced compared to the Rb phosphorylation level at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3 in the control. For example, the Rb phosphorylation level at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3 being analyzed is at least 1.5 times, at least 2 times, at least 3 times, at least 4 times, at least 5 times, at least 6 times, at least 7 times, at least 8 times, at least 9 times, at least 10 times, at least 20 times, at least 25 times, at least 50 times, at least 75 times, or at least 100 times lower than the Rb phosphorylation level at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3 in the control, or at least 10%, at least 20%, at least 30%, at least 40%, at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90%, or 100% lower.
[0073] Biological samples Suitable biological samples for the methods described herein include any sample containing blood or tumor cells obtained from or derived from a human subject requiring treatment. For example, a biological sample may contain tumor cells from a biopsy of a patient with a solid tumor. Tumor biopsies can be obtained by various means known in the art. Alternatively, a blood sample may be obtained from a patient with a blood cancer.
[0074] Biological samples may be obtained from human subjects who have, are suspected of having, or are at risk of developing a disease or disorder associated with CDK2.

[0076] Methods for obtaining and / or preserving samples that preserve the activity or integrity of molecules (e.g., nucleic acids or proteins) within the sample are well known to those skilled in the art. For example, a biological sample may be further contacted with one or more additional agents, such as buffers and / or inhibitors, containing one or more nucleases, proteases, and phosphatase inhibitors, which preserve or minimize changes in the molecules within the sample.
[0077] Evaluation of biomarkers and pharmacodynamic markers The expression level of CCNE1 or p16 can be detected, for example, as RNA expression of the target gene (i.e., the gene encoding CCNE1 or p16). That is, the expression level (amount) of CCNE1 or p16 can be determined by detecting and / or measuring the level of mRNA expression of the gene encoding CCNE1. Alternatively, the expression level of CCNE1 or p16 can be detected, for example, as protein expression of the target gene (i.e., the gene encoding CCNE1 or p16). That is, the expression level (amount) of CCNE1 or p16 can be determined by detecting and / or measuring the level of protein expression of the gene encoding CCNE1 or p16.
[0078] In some embodiments, the expression level of CCNE1 or p16 is determined by measuring RNA levels. Various suitable methods can be used to detect and / or measure the level of mRNA expression of a gene. For example, mRNA expression can be determined using Northern blot or dot blot analysis, reverse transcriptase-PCR (RT-PCR, e.g., quantitative RT-PCR), in situ hybridization (e.g., quantitative in situ hybridization), nucleic acid arrays (e.g., oligonucleotide arrays or gene chips), and RNA sequencing analysis. Details of such methods are described below, as well as, for example, Sambrook et al., Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual Second Edition vol.1,2 and 3. Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press: Cold Spring Harbor, New York, USA, Nov.1989; Gibson et al. (1999) Genome Res., 6(10):995-1001; and Zhang et al. (2005) Environ. Sci. Technol., 39(8):2777-2785; U.S. Patent Publication No. 2004086915; European Patent No. 0543942; and U.S. Patent No. 7,101,663; and Kukurba et al. (2015) Cold Spring Harbor Protocols., 2015(11):951-69 (each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety).
[0079] For example, the presence or amount of one or more distinct mRNA populations in a biological sample can be determined by isolating the total mRNA from the biological sample (see, e.g., Sambrook et al. (above) and U.S. Patent No. 6,812,341), and separating the mRNA by size using agarose gel electrophoresis. The size-separated mRNA is then transcribed (e.g., by diffusion) onto a solid support such as a nitrocellulose membrane. The presence or amount of one or more mRNA populations in the biological sample can then be determined using one or more detectably labeled polynucleotide probes complementary to the mRNA sequence of interest, which bind to make their corresponding mRNA populations detectable. Detectable labels include, for example, fluorescent labels (e.g., umbelliferone, fluorescein, fluorescein isothiocyanate, rhodamine, dichlorotriazinylamine fluorescein, dansilchloride, allophycocyanin, or phycoerythrin), luminescence labels (e.g., europium, terbium, Qdot® nanoparticles supplied by Quantum Dot Corporation, Palo Alto, CA), radioactive labels (e.g., 125I, 131I, 35S, 32P, 33P, or 3H), and enzyme labels (horseradish peroxidase, alkaline phosphatase, beta-galactosidase, or acetylcholinesterase).
[0080] In some embodiments, the expression level of CCNE1 or p16 is determined by measuring protein levels. Various preferred methods can be used to detect and / or measure the level of protein expression of the target gene. For example, CCNE1 or p16 protein expression can be determined using Western blotting, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay ("ELISA"), fluorescence-activated cell sorting, or immunohistochemical analysis (e.g., using CCNE1-specific or p16-specific antibodies, respectively). Details of such methods are described below and, for example, in Sambrook et al. above.
[0081] For example, the presence or amount of one or more distinct protein populations (e.g., CCNE1 or p16) in a biological sample can be determined by Western blotting, for example, by isolating the total protein from the biological sample (see, e.g., Sambrook et al. (above)), and separating the isolated protein by agarose gel electrophoresis to separate the proteins by size. The size-separated proteins are then transferred (e.g., by diffusion) to a solid support such as a nitrocellulose membrane. The presence or amount of one or more protein populations in the biological sample can then be determined using one or more antibody probes, for example, a first antibody specific to the protein of interest (e.g., CCNE1 or p16), and a second antibody that is detectably labeled and specific to the first antibody, which binds to make the corresponding protein population detectable. Detectable labels suitable for use in Western blotting are known in the art.
[0082] Methods for detecting or measuring gene expression (e.g., mRNA or protein expression) may be carried out in a form that allows for the rapid preparation, processing, and analysis of multiple samples. This may be done, for example, in a multi-well assay plate (e.g., 96-well or 386-well) or array (e.g., nucleic acid chip or protein chip). Stock solutions of various reagents may be provided manually or under robotic control, and subsequent sample preparation (e.g., RT-PCR, labeling, or cell fixation), pipetting, dilution, mixing, distribution, washing, incubation (e.g., hybridization), sample reading, data acquisition (optical data), and / or analysis (computer-aided image analysis) may be performed under robotic control using commercially available analysis software, robotics, and detection instruments capable of detecting signals generated from assays. Examples of such detectors include, but are not limited to, spectrophotometers, luminometers, fluorometers, and instruments for measuring radioisotope decay. Exemplary high-throughput cell-based assays (e.g., detecting the presence or level of a target protein within a cell) can utilize ArrayScan® VTI HCS reader or KineticScan® HCS reader technology (Cellomics Inc., Pittsburg, PA).
[0083] In some embodiments, the presence of a CDKN2A gene encoding the p16 protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 and / or a CDKN2A gene lacking one or more inactivating nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions is determined by evaluating the DNA sequence of the CDKN2A gene (e.g., genomic DNA or cDNA) or by evaluating the RNA sequence of the CDKN2A gene (e.g., RNA, e.g., mRNA). Methods for performing nucleic acid sequencing analysis are known in the art and are described above. Non-limiting examples of inactivating nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions that prevent the CDKN2A gene from encoding a protein containing the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 are listed in Table 1 above. In certain embodiments, one or more inactivating nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions in the CDKN2A gene are as described in Yarbrough et al., Journal of the National Cancer Institute, 91(18):1569-1574, 1999, Liggett and Sidransky, Biology of Neoplasia, Journal of Oncology, 16(3):1197-1206, 1998, and Cairns et al., Nature Genetics, 11:210-212, 1995 (each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety).
[0084] In some embodiments, the expression level or presence of a gene lacking one or more inactivating nucleic acid substitutions or deletions is determined by evaluating the copy number variation (CNV) of the gene. The CNV of a gene (e.g., the CCNE1 gene and / or the CDKN2A gene) can be determined / identified by a variety of preferred methods. For example, CNVs can be determined using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA), array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH), single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays, and next-generation sequencing (NGS) techniques.
[0085] For example, copy number variations of one or more distinct genes in a biological sample can be determined by MLPA by, for instance, extracting a DNA sample from the biological sample (see, e.g., Sambrook et al. (above) and U.S. Patent No. 6,812,341) and amplifying the target DNA sequence (e.g., CCNE1 or CDKN2A) using a mixture of MLPA probes. Each MLPA probe consists of two oligonucleotides that hybridize to immediately adjacent target DNA sequences (e.g., CCNE1 or CDKN2A) to ligate into a single probe. The ligated probe is amplified by PCR using a single fluorescently labeled PCR primer, allowing visualization of the amplified product during fragment separation by capillary electrophoresis. The presence, absence, or amplification of one or more target genes in the biological sample is calculated by measuring the fluorescence derived from PCR, quantifying the amount of normalized PCR product, and comparing it to a control DNA sample.
[0086] The level of Rb phosphorylation at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3 can be detected by various preferred methods. For example, the phosphorylation state can be determined using Western blotting, ELISA, fluorescence-activated cell sorting, or immunohistochemical analysis. Details of such methods are described below and, for example, by Sambrook et al. above.
[0087] Similar to the methods for detecting or measuring gene expression (described above), a method for detecting or measuring the level of Rb phosphorylation at serine corresponding to amino acid position 780 of SEQ ID NO: 3 may be provided in a form that allows for the rapid preparation, processing, and analysis of multiple samples.

[0147] In some embodiments, the compound is a compound selected from the compounds of the examples, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
[0148] In some embodiments, the substituents described herein include "alkyl," "alkenyl," "alkynyl," "aryl," "phenyl," "cycloalkyl," "heterocycloalkyl," or "heteroaryl" substituents or "-C" substituents. 1~4 The one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, or eight hydrogen atoms bonded to the carbon atoms of the alkyl- and alkylene linking groups may be replaced by deuterium atoms.
[0149] For clarity, it is further understood that certain features of the present invention, described in relation to separate embodiments, may also be provided in combination in a single embodiment. Conversely, various features of the present invention, described in relation to a single embodiment for brevity, may also be provided separately or in any preferred partial combination.
[0150] Divalent linked substituents are described in various places in this specification. Each divalent linked substituent is specifically intended to include both the forward and backward forms of the linked substituent. For example, -NR(CR'R'') n - is -NR(CR'R'') n -and-(CR'R'') nThis includes both NR- and NR-. If the structure explicitly requires a linking group, the Markush variables listed for that group are understood to be linking groups.
[0151] "One R" 5 S(O)2R b5 And each of the remaining R 5 Embodiments that state "the is independently selected from the following" are those that do not use -S(O)2R b5 When a substituent is shown in a formula and combined with multiple dependents, the -S(O)2R that is not formally bonded is called -S(O)2R. b5 Due to substituents, "one R 5 S(O)2R b5 The phrase "and" is replaced.

Substituents are selected independently, and substitution may occur at any chemically accessible position. As used herein, the term "substituted" means that a hydrogen atom is removed and replaced by a substituent. A single divalent substituent, e.g., an oxo, can replace two hydrogen atoms. It should be understood that substitutions at a given atom are limited by valence, that the normal valence of the specified atom is not exceeded, and that the substitution results in a stable compound.
[0154] As used herein, the phrase “each ‘variable’ is independently selected from the following” means substantially the same as “each instance of ‘variable’ is selected from the following.”
[0155] Any variable (for example, R S If a compound has two or more R groups, the definition of that group for each occurrence is independent of the definition of that group for all other occurrences. For example, if a compound has one, two, three, or four R groups... S If it is shown to be substituted by, then the base has up to four R S The base may be substituted depending on the case, and each occurrence of R S R S The selection is independent of the definition. Furthermore, combinations of substituents and / or variables are permitted only if such combinations result in stable compounds. For example, the combination of a first M group and a second M group in a combination of two R groups is permitted only if such an MM combination results in a stable compound (for example, MM is not permitted if it would form a highly reactive compound such as a peroxide with an OO bond).

Methods relating to preparing optically active forms from optically inert starting materials are known in the art and include methods such as the separation of racemic mixtures or stereoselective synthesis. Many geometric isomers, such as olefins and C=N double bonds, may also be present in the compounds described herein, and all such stable isomers are intended in the present invention.

[0219] All compounds, and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, can be found together with other substances such as water and solvents (e.g., hydrates and solvates), or they can be isolated.
[0220] In some embodiments, the preparation of the compound may involve adding an acid or base that affects, for example, the catalytic action of the desired reaction or the formation of a salt form such as an acid addition salt.
[0221] In some embodiments, the compounds or salts thereof provided herein are substantially isolated. "Substantially isolated" means that the compounds are at least partially, or substantially, separated from the environment in which they were formed or detected.

[0222] In some embodiments, the CDK2 inhibitor may be an isotope-labeled compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. An “isotope-labeled” or “radiolabeled” compound is a compound of the Disclosure in which one or more atoms are replaced or substituted by atoms having an atomic mass or mass number different from that normally found in nature (i.e., naturally occurring atomic mass or mass number). Suitable radionuclides that may be incorporated into the compounds of the Disclosure include: 2 H (deuterium is also written as D), 3 H (Tritium is also written as T), 11 C, 13 C, 14 C, 13 N, 15 N, 15 O,17 O, 18 O, 18 F, 35 S, 36 Cl, 82 Br, 75 Br, 76 Br, 77 Br, 123 I, 124 I, 125 I and 131 I is one example, but is not limited to these. For example, one or more hydrogen atoms in the compounds of this disclosure may be replaced by deuterium atoms (e.g., C 1~6 One or more hydrogen atoms in an alkyl group may be substituted with deuterium atoms (for example, -CH3 may be substituted with -CD3).
[0223] One or more constituent atoms of the compounds described herein may be replaced or substituted with isotopes of atoms of natural or unnatural abundance. In some embodiments, the compounds contain at least one deuterium atom. In some embodiments, the compounds contain two or more deuterium atoms.

In some embodiments, all hydrogen atoms in the compound may be replaced or substituted with deuterium atoms.
[0224] Methods for synthesizing the inclusion of isotopes in organic compounds are known in the art (Deuterium Labeling in Organic Chemistry by Alan F. Thomas (New York, NY, Appleton-Century-Crofts, 1971), The Renaissance of H / D Exchange by Jens Atzrodt, Volker Derdau, Thorsten Fey and Jochen Zimmermann, Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2007, 7744-7765, The Organic Chemistry of Isotopic Labelling by James R. Hanson, Royal Society of Chemistry, 2011). Isotopic-labeled compounds can be used in a variety of studies, including NMR spectroscopy, metabolic experiments, and / or assays.
[0225] Substitution with heavier isotopes, such as deuterium, may be preferable in some situations because it can lead to certain therapeutic benefits resulting from greater metabolic stability, such as an increased in vivo half-life or a reduced required dose (see, for example, A. Kerekes et al. J. Med. Chem. 2011, 54, 201-210 and R. Xu et al. J. Label Compd. Radiopharm. 2015, 58, 308-312). In particular, substitution at one or more metabolic sites may result in one or more therapeutic benefits.
[0226] Therefore, in some embodiments, the CDK2 inhibitor is a compound in which one or more hydrogen atoms in the compound are replaced by deuterium atoms, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
[0227] The term “compound,” as used herein, means all stereoisomers, geometric isomers, tautomers, and isotopes of the illustrated structure. A compound identified by name or structure as one particular tautomer is intended to include other tautomers unless otherwise specified.

[0229] This disclosure also includes pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds described herein. As used herein, “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” means a derivative of the disclosed compound in which the parent compound has been modified by converting an existing acidic or base moiety to its salt form. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, but are not limited to, mineral or organic acid salts of basic residues such as amines, and alkali or organic salts of acidic residues such as carboxylic acids. The pharmaceutically acceptable salts of this disclosure include, for example, conventional non-toxic salts of the parent compound formed from non-toxic inorganic or organic acids. The pharmaceutically acceptable salts of this disclosure can be synthesized from the parent compound containing the base or acid moiety by conventional chemical methods. Generally, such salts can be prepared by reacting the free acidic or base form of the compound with a stoichiometric amount of a suitable base or acid in water or an organic solvent, or in a mixture thereof, the solvent is generally a non-aqueous medium such as ether, ethyl acetate, alcohol (e.g., methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, or butanol), or acetonitrile (ACN). A list of suitable salts can be found in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 17th ed., Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pa., 1985, p. 1418 and Journal of Pharmaceutical Science, 66, 2 (1977), the entirety of each of which is incorporated herein by reference.

[0232] The reactions for preparing the compounds of the present invention may be carried out in suitable solvents that can be readily selected by those skilled in the art of organic synthesis. Suitable solvents may be substantially inactive with the starting materials (reactants), intermediates, or products at the temperature in which the reaction is carried out, for example, in the range from the freezing temperature to the boiling temperature of the solvent. A given reaction may be carried out in one solvent or a mixture of two or more solvents. Depending on the specific reaction step, a solvent suitable for that particular reaction step may be selected by those skilled in the art.
[0233] The preparation of the compounds of the present invention may involve the protection and deprotection of various chemical groups. The need for protection and deprotection, as well as the selection of appropriate protecting groups, can be readily determined by those skilled in the art. The chemical properties of protecting groups can be found, for example, in Kocienski, Protecting Groups (Thieme, 2007), Robertson, Protecting Group Chemistry (Oxford University Press, 2000), and Smith et al., March's Advanced Organic Chemistry: Reactions, Mechanisms, and Structure, 6. th This is described in Ed. (Wiley, 2007), Peturssion et al., “Protecting Groups in Carbohydrate Chemistry,” J. Chem. Educ., 1997, 74(11), 1297, and Wuts et al., Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 4th Ed., (Wiley, 2006).
[0234] The reaction may be monitored according to any suitable method known in the art. For example, product formation may be monitored by spectroscopic means, e.g., nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (e.g., 1 H or 13 C) It can be monitored by infrared spectroscopy, spectrophotometric methods (e.g., ultraviolet-visible), mass spectrometry, or by chromatographic methods such as high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or thin-layer chromatography (TLC).
[0235] The following scheme provides general guidelines relating to the preparation of the compounds of the present invention. Those skilled in the art will understand that the preparations shown in the scheme can be modified or optimized using general knowledge of organic chemistry to prepare various compounds of the present invention.
[0236] Compounds of formula (AI) can be prepared, for example, using processes such as those shown in schemes 1 and 2 below.
[0237] Compounds of formula (AI) can be prepared from an intermediate of general formula (A). Intermediate (A) can be prepared as shown in Scheme 1. Scheme 1 shows that when the diacid of formula 1-1 is converted to a suitable diester, e.g., methyl or ethyl ester, compound 1-2 can be obtained, and when this is formylated with a suitable reagent (e.g., methyl or ethyl formate), compound 1-3 can be obtained. Compounds of formula 1-4 can be obtained by reacting compounds of formula 1-3 with a suitable guanidine source, e.g., guanidine carbonate or guanidine hydrochloride. Finally, structures of general formula (A) can be obtained by reacting compounds of formula 1-4 with a suitable chlorinating reagent, e.g., phosphorus oxychloride. [ka]
[0238] Intermediates of general formula A can be converted to compounds of formula (I), as shown in scheme 2, having various substituents on R1. Compounds of formula (A) can be reacted with a suitable R2 substituent using various methods (e.g., reductive amination with an aldehyde or ketone, Buchwald-Hartwig amination, copper-catalyzed amination, amide bond formation, etc.) to yield compounds of formula 2-2. When the chloro group of a compound of formula 2-2 reacts with a suitable amine under Buchwald-Hartwig amination conditions, compounds of formula (I) can be yielded. [ka]
[0239] Compounds of formula (BI) can be prepared by various methods depending on the position where the change is desired. For example, a compound of formula (BI) having a change in ring A can be prepared as shown in Scheme 3. In the process illustrated in Scheme 3, the compound of formula 1-2 is provided by selective substitution of the chloro group of trihalopyrimidine 1-1 with the desired amine. Intermediate 1-2 can be reacted by selective Negishi cross-coupling (CCR) with a suitable palladium precatalyst / ligand combination (e.g., Pd2(dba)3 and QPhos or XPhos) to produce intermediate 1-3. Intermediate 1-3 can then be reacted by base-promoted cyclization to provide the compound of formula 1-4. Subsequently, when the desired substitution α is introduced to the amide of intermediate 1-4 (e.g., by sequential alkylation or Pd-catalyzed arylation), the compound of formula 1-5 can be provided. Alternatively, the compounds of formulas 1-5 are provided by reaction with a biselectrophile (e.g., 1,2-dibromoethane) under standard alkylation conditions, where R2 and R3 combine to form a ring, thus providing the compounds of formulas 1-5. Finally, the compound of formula (BI) is provided by Buchwald-Hartwig amination with a suitable amine. [ka]
[0240] R 1 Compounds of formula (BI) having different groups can be formed as shown in scheme 4. Thus, as described above, the R of compound 2-1 2 and R 3 The introduction of compound 2-2 provides which can undergo selective oxidation of sulfur (e.g., using m-CPBA) to provide intermediate 2-3. The intermediate 2-3 with the resulting sulfone is selectively SN with a suitable N-formylamine. ArThe reaction provides intermediates 2-4. Finally, the reaction of intermediates 2-4 with a suitable amine provides a compound of general formula (BI). This coupling can be carried out in one of two ways. Firstly, a tandem Buchwald-Hartwig amination and cyclization catalyzed by a suitable pre-formed catalyst (e.g., RuPhos second-generation pre-catalyst or XantPhos second-generation pre-catalyst) may be used. Alternatively, the two-step protocol may be SN-1 with a suitable acidic (TFA) or basic (Hünig base) catalyst and a suitable polar solvent (i.e., 1,1,1-trifluoroethanol or 1-butanol). Ar The reaction consists of a reaction followed by a cyclization induced by a suitable base (i.e., sodium hydride). [ka]
[0241] Treatment method The methods disclosed herein enable the assessment of whether human subjects with, suspected of having, or at risk of developing a CDK2-related disease or disorder may respond to a CDK2 inhibitor (e.g., whether they have a significant improvement in the disease, as demonstrated by remission / recovery, or whether CDK2 may be inhibited). Human subjects with, suspected of having, or at risk of developing a CDK2-related disease or disorder who may respond to a CDK2 inhibitor may be administered a CDK2 inhibitor. Conversely, human subjects with, suspected of having, or at risk of developing a CDK2-related disease or disorder who are unlikely to respond to a CDK2 inhibitor may be administered additional therapies suitable for treating the disease or disorder.
[0242] The method described herein also makes it possible to stratify human subjects who have, are suspected of having, or are at risk of developing a CDK2-related disease or disorder into groups of subjects who are likely to benefit from treatment including CDK2 inhibitors and groups who are unlikely to benefit. The ability to select such human subjects from a pool of human subjects with CDK2-related diseases or disorders for which treatment with CDK2 inhibitors is being considered is beneficial for providing effective treatment to the subjects.
[0243] In one embodiment, a human subject treated with a CDK2 inhibitor has, is suspected of having, or is at risk of developing a CDK2-related disease or disorder. In a particular embodiment, a human subject treated with a CDK2 inhibitor has, is suspected of having, or is at risk of developing cancer.
[0244] Human subjects with a disease or disorder associated with CDK2 may be administered an effective dose of a CDK2 inhibitor if they are likely to respond to one or more of the markers listed above (e.g., biomarkers or pharmacodynamic markers, e.g., CCNE1, p16, and Rb phosphorylation). The effective dose of the CDK2 inhibitor may be appropriately determined by a healthcare professional, taking into account, for example, the patient's characteristics (age, sex, weight, race, etc.), disease progression, and prior exposure to the drug. If a human subject is unlikely to respond to a CDK2 inhibitor, they may be administered a therapy that does not include a CDK2 inhibitor.
[0245] After stratifying or selecting human subjects based on whether they are more or less likely to respond to CDK inhibitors, a medical practitioner (e.g., a doctor) can administer appropriate treatment to the human subjects. Methods for administering CDK2 inhibitors are known in the art.
[0246] If a human subject with a CDK2-related disease or disorder, and who is expected to respond to a CDK2 inhibitor, has previously received one or more non-CDK2 inhibitor therapies, then a CDK2 inhibitor may replace or enhance the previously or currently administered therapy. For example, treatment with a CDK2 inhibitor may lead to the discontinuation or reduction of one or more non-CDK2 inhibitor therapies, for example, by administering them at lower levels. While a CDK2 inhibitor is administered, the administration of previous therapies may be maintained. In some embodiments, previous therapies may be maintained until the level of the CDK2 inhibitor reaches a level sufficient to produce a therapeutic effect.
[0247] In certain embodiments, methods are provided herein for treating human subjects who have, are suspected of having, or are at risk of developing a disease or disorder associated with CDK2, the methods comprising administering a CDK2 inhibitor to the human subjects, the human subjects having been determined to (i)(a) have a nucleotide sequence encoding a p16 protein comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, (b) have a CDKN2A gene lacking one or more inactivating nucleic acid substitutions and / or deletions, and / or (c) express a p16 protein (e.g., a p16 protein comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1), and (ii)(a) have an amplified CCNE1 gene and / or (b) have a higher level of CCNE1 expression in a biological sample obtained from the subjects than the control expression level of CCNE1.

[0342] The following are examples of how the present invention may be implemented. They should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. [Examples]
[0343] Example 1. Characterization of cyclin E1 in ovarian cancer and endometrial cancer cell lines The cyclin E1 ("CCNE1") gene was evaluated in various ovarian and endometrial cancer cell lines (Figures 1A and 1B). CCNE1 was amplified in COV318, OVCAR3 ovarian, Fu-OV1, and KLE cells, each showing CCNE1 gain-of-function depending on the copy number (copy number ("CN") > 2) (Figure 1A). In contrast, CCNE1 was not amplified in COV504, OV56, or Igrov1 cells, each showing an intermediate copy number (2) or loss of function (CN ≤ 2). CN was obtained from the Broad Institute Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia ("CCLE") database (Barretina, et al., Nature, 2012. 483(7391): p. 603-7, the entire database of which is incorporated herein by reference).
[0344] Western blot analysis was performed on protein samples from COV318, OVCAR3_ovary, Fu-OV1, KLE, COV504, OV56, and Igrov1 cells to assess CCNE1 protein levels. CCNE1 protein levels were higher in cell lines with CCNE1 gain-of-function due to copy number (CN>2, i.e., COV318, OVCAR3 ovary, Fu-OV1, and KLE cells) compared to cell lines with intermediate copy number or loss of function of the gene (CN≦2, i.e., COV504, OV56, and Igrov1 cells).
[0345] Example 2. CDK2 knockdown using siRNA inhibits the proliferation of CCNE1-amplified human cancer cell lines, but not of non-CCNE1-amplified human cancer cell lines. The effects of CDK2 knockdown were evaluated in CCNE1-amplified cell lines versus CCNE1-non-amplified cell lines. CCNE1-amplified cell lines (Fu-OV1 and KLE) or CCNE1-non-amplified cell lines (COV504 and Igrov1) were treated with a control ("ctrl") or CDK2-specific small interfering RNA ("siRNA") ("CDK2 siRNA-1" and "CDK2 siRNA-2") (Figures 2A and 2B, and 3A and 3B). 72 hours after siRNA transfection, cells were collected and subjected to cell cycle analysis by fluorescence-activated cell sorting ("FACS") (Figures 2A and 3A). CDK2 knockdown was confirmed by Western blotting (Figures 2B and 3B). CDK2 knockdown inhibited proliferation in CCNE1-amplified cell lines but not in CCNE1-non-amplified cell lines (Figures 2A and 3A).
[0346] Similar experiments were performed with additional CCNE1-amplified cell lines (COV318, OVCAR3, Fu-OV1, and KLE) and non-amplified CCNE1 cell lines (COV504, OV56, and Igrov1) (Figure 4). The percentage of S-phase cells 3 days after treatment with CDK2-specific siRNA was significantly reduced in CCNE1-amplified cell lines compared to treatment with control siRNA (Figure 4). Consistent with the results in Figures 2A and 3A, there was no significant difference in the percentage of S-phase cells 3 days after treatment with CDK2-specific siRNA compared to treatment with control siRNA in non-amplified CCNE1 cell lines (Figure 4).
[0347] Example 3. Proliferation in CCNE1-amplified and CCNE-non-amplified cell lines under CDK4 / 6 inhibition The effects of CDK4 / 6 inhibition were evaluated in CCNE1-amplified cell lines versus non-amplified CCNE1 cell lines. CCNE1-amplified cells (OVCAR3) or non-amplified CCNE1 cells (COV504) were treated with dimethyl sulfoxide ("DMSO") control or escalating concentrations of the CDK4 / 6 inhibitor palbociclib (Figure 5). Cells were harvested 16 hours after treatment with DMSO or palbociclib and subjected to FACS cell cycle analysis (Figure 5). CDK4 / 6 inhibition resulted in dose-dependent inhibition of proliferation in non-amplified CCNE1 cells, but not in CCNE1-amplified cells (Figure 5).
[0348] Similar experiments were performed with larger sets of CCNE1-amplified cell lines (COV318 and OVCAR3) and CCNE1-non-amplified cell lines (COV504, OV56, and Igrov1) (Figure 6). The percentage of S-phase cells 16 hours after palbociclib treatment decreased in a dose-dependent manner in CCNE1-non-amplified cell lines compared to DMSO treatment (Figure 6). Consistent with the results in Figure 5, there was no significant difference in the percentage of S-phase cells 16 hours after palbociclib treatment compared to DMSO treatment in CCNE1-amplified cell lines (Figure 6).
[0349] Example 4. CDK2 knockdown blocks Rb phosphorylation at S780 in CCNE1-amplified cell lines, but not in non-CCNE1-amplified cell lines. The effect of CDK2 knockdown on Rb phosphorylation at Ser-780 ("S780") of Sequence ID No. 3 in CCNE1-amplified cell lines versus CCNE1-non-amplified cell lines was evaluated. CCNE1-amplified cell lines (COV318, Fu-OV1, and KLE) or CCNE1-non-amplified cell lines (COV504, OV56, and Igrov1) were treated with ctrl or CDK2-specific siRNA (Figures 7A and 7B). 72 hours after siRNA transfection, cells were harvested, and total protein was extracted and analyzed by Western blotting. CDK2 knockdown was confirmed by Western blotting. CDK2 knockdown blocked Rb phosphorylation at S780 in CCNE1-amplified cell lines (Figure 7A), but not in CCNE1-non-amplified cell lines (Figure 7B).
[0350] Example 5. Palbociclib blocks Rb phosphorylation at S780 in non-CCNE1 amplified cell lines, but does not block it in CCNE1 amplified cell lines. The effect of CDK4 / 6 inhibition on Rb phosphorylation at S780 was evaluated in CCNE1-amplified cell lines versus non-amplified CCNE1 cell lines. CCNE1-amplified cell lines (OVCAR3 and COV318) or non-amplified CCNE1 cell lines (COV504 and OV56) were treated with DMSO or various doses of palbociclib (Figures 8A and 8B). Cells were harvested 1 or 15 hours after treatment, and total protein was extracted and analyzed by Western blotting (Figure 8). Palbociclib treatment blocked Rb phosphorylation at S780 in non-amplified CCNE1 cell lines (Figure 8B), but not in CCNE1-amplified cell lines (Figure 8A).
[0351] Example 6. CDK2 degradation by dTAG reduces RB phosphorylation at S780. To further confirm that CDK2 knockdown reduces Rb phosphorylation at S780 in CCNE1-amplified cells (see Example 4), CDK2 was degraded using a dTAG system and the level of S780-phosphorylated Rb was evaluated (Erb et al., Nature, 2017, 543(7644):270-274, the entire article is incorporated herein by reference). Briefly, OVCAR3 cells were engineered to express Cas9 by lentiviral transduction of a Cas9 construct. Subsequently, OVCAR3-Cas9 cells were engineered to express the CDK2-FKBP12F36V-HA fusion protein by lentiviral transduction of a CDK2-FKBP12F36V-HA expression construct. Next, in order to manipulate the cell line and inactivate endogenous CDK2, OVCAR3 (Cas9, CDK2-FKBP12F36V-HA) cells were transduced with CDK2 sgRNA ("CDK2-gRNA"), and OVCAR3 (Cas9, CDK2-FKBP12F36V-HA) cells transduced with untargeted sgRNA ("Ctl-gRNA", Cellecta) served as a control cell line.
[0352] Cells were treated with DMSO or dTAG concentration titration for 14 hours to degrade the CDK2-FKBP12F36V-HA protein with dTAG (Figure 9A). Cells were collected and processed for Western blotting (Figure 9B). Dose-responsive degradation of CDK2-FKBP12(F36V) was detected by Western blotting after dTAG treatment in both control and CDK2-gRNA treated cells (Figure 9B). Degradation was further confirmed by Western blotting of the HA tag. Endogenous CDK2 protein was detected in OVCAR3 cells treated with control gRNA but not in cells treated with CDK2-gRNA (Figure 9B). CDK2-FKBP12(F36V) degradation inhibited Rb phosphorylation at S780 in CDK2 knockout OVCAR3 cells but not in OVCAR3 cells with endogenous CDK2 expression.
[0353] Example 7. p-Rb S780 HTRF cell assay for identifying CDK2 inhibitors An in vitro CDK2 / CCNE1 enzyme activity assay was used to measure the phosphorylation of the peptide substrate using homogeneous time-resolved energy transfer ("HTRF"). First, the specificity of 8-((1R,2R)-2-hydroxy-2-methylcyclopentyl)-2-((1-(methylsulfonyl)piperidine-4-yl)amino)pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-7(8H)-one (compound A) for CDK2 inhibition was confirmed by a kinase activity assay (Figure 10A). For this purpose, the LANCE® Ultra kinase assay was used with ULight®-labeled EIF4E-binding protein 1 (Thr37 / 46) peptide (PerkinElmer, TRF0128-M) as a substrate and with europium-labeled anti-phospho-EIF4E-binding protein 1 (Thr37 / 46) antibody (PerkinElmer, TRF0216-M). The ratio of the fluorescence transferred to the labeled substrate (665 nm) to the fluorescence of the europium donor (620 nm) represents the degree of phosphorylation. IC of compound A 50 This was determined to be 1.1 nM (Figure 10A). In contrast, the IC of the CDK4 / 6 inhibitor palbociclib 50 The value was 10,000 nM (Figure 10A).
[0354] Next, a CDK2 pRb(S780)HTRF cell assay was performed to enable quantitative detection of Rb phosphorylation at serine 780 in CCNE1-amplified COV318 cells upon treatment with compound A or palbociclib (Figure 10B). Treatment with compound A, rather than palbociclib, inhibited Rb phosphorylation at serine 780 in CCNE1-amplified cells (Figure 10B). IC of compound A in this assay 50 While the IC of palbociclib was 37nM, 50 The value was >3,000 nM (Figure 10B).
[0355] Example 8. Bioinformatics analysis of the CCLE dataset revealed that the sensitivity to CDK2 inhibition in CCNE1-amplified cells is dependent on functional p16. To identify biomarkers for predicting sensitivity to CDK2 inhibition in CCNE1-amplified cells, 460 cell lines from CCLE were analyzed (Barretina, above). First, cell lines were filtered based on CCNE1 copy number and expression based on shRNA knockdown data, as well as CDK2 sensitivity scores. In total, 41 cell lines were identified with a CCNE1 copy number and CCNE1 expression score >3 (CCLE: >3). Of these 41 cell lines, 18 (44%) were highly sensitive to CDK2 inhibition (CDK2 sensitivity score ≤ -3), while 23 (56%) were less sensitive (CDK2 sensitivity score > -3).
[0356] Next, the p16 status was evaluated in CDK2-sensitive and CDK2-insensitive cell lines (Figure 11). Of the 18 cell lines that showed high sensitivity to CDK2 inhibition, 100% expressed a normal p16 gene (Figure 11). In contrast, of the 23 CDK2-insensitive cell lines, only 4 expressed a normal p16 gene (Figure 11). The majority of the 23 CDK2-insensitive cell lines showed dysfunctional p16 gene expression: specifically, 10 of the 23 cell lines had a deletion of the p16 gene, 5 of the 23 cell lines had a silencing of the p16 gene, and 4 of the 23 cell lines had a mutation in the p16 gene (Figure 11).
[0357] Table 2 below provides an overview of CDK2 sensitivity and CDKN2A / p16 status in CCNE1-amplified cell lines. Table 2. Cell lines with a CDK2 sensitivity score of ≤3 were calculated as CDK2-sensitive cells, and those with a score of ≥3 were calculated as CDK2-insensitive cells. Cell lines validated in experiments are shown in bold. NCIN87_stomach showed no CDKN2A / P16 protein expression at all in Western blotting. The copy numbers of CCNE1 and CDKN2A / P16 were calculated based on the CCLE dataset. An expression score <0 was calculated as gene silencing. [Table 2]
[0358] Example 9. CCNE1-amplified cells with dysfunctional p16 do not respond to CDK2 inhibition. To further evaluate the role of CDK2-sensitive p16 in CCNE1-amplified cells, p16 protein expression was assessed by Western blotting in three gastric cell lines with CCNE1 amplification. AGS and NCI-N87 cells showed p16 levels deficient or dramatically reduced (Figure 12A). In contrast, p16 protein was detected in MKN1 cell protein extracts (Figure 12A).
[0359] Next, the effects of CDK2 knockdown in these cells were evaluated. Mkn1, Ags, and NCI-N87 cells were treated with either control or CDK2-specific siRNA. Three days after siRNA transfection, the cell cycle distribution of the cells was assessed by FACS. The proportion of S-phase cells in Mkn1 cells (CCNE1 amplified, p16 protein detected) was significantly reduced in CDK2 siRNA-treated cells compared to the control (Figure 12B). In contrast, the proportion of S-phase cells was not significantly reduced in Ags and NCI-N87 cells (CCNE1 amplified, dysfunctional p16 protein levels) after treatment with CDK2 siRNA compared to the control (Figure 12B).
[0360] Example 10. siRNA-mediated p16 knockdown neutralizes CDK2 inhibition-induced cell cycle repression in CCNE1-amplified cells. To confirm the role of p16 in CDK2 sensitivity of CCNE1-amplified cells, COV318 cells were treated with either a control or p16-specific siRNA. 72 hours after transfection, cells were treated with DMSO (control) or 100 nM compound A. 16 hours after treatment with DMSO or the CDK2 inhibitor, cells were harvested and subjected to FACS cell cycle analysis. Consistent with the results described above, the percentage of S-phase cells was significantly reduced in control siRNA-treated cells treated with the CDK2 inhibitor (compound A), but not in those treated with the DMSO control (Figure 13). In contrast, the percentage of S-phase cells was not significantly reduced in p16 knockdown cells after treatment with the CDK2 inhibitor (compound A) compared to the DMSO control (Figure 13).
[0361] Materials and methods used in Examples 1-10 Cell culture and transfection Human cyclin E1 (CCNE1)-amplified ovarian cell lines OVCAR3, COV318, Fu-OV1, endometrial cell line KLE, gastric cell lines MKN1, AGS, NCIN87, and CCNE1-non-amplified ovarian cell lines COV504, OV56, Igrov1 were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium. Complete growth medium was supplemented with 10% FBS, 0.1 mM non-essential amino acids, 2 mM L-glutamine, 100 units / mL penicillin G, and 100 μg / mL streptomycin in a humidified incubator at 37°C and in an atmosphere of 5% CO2 in the air. The Fu-OV1 cell line was purchased from the Leibniz-Institute DSMZ-German Collection of Microorganisms and Cell Cultures, MKN1 from the Japanese Cancer Research Resources Bank, and the remaining cell lines from the American Type Culture Collection. For transfection, cells were seeded in 6 wells for 24 hours and transiently transfected with Lipofectamine 2000 reagent (Thermo Fisher, 11668027). Endogenous CDK2 and CDKN2A / p16 were knocked down using ON-TARGETplus Human CKD2 siRNA (GE Healthcare Dharmacon, J-003236-11-0002 and J-003236-12-0002) and ON-TARGETplus Human CDKN2A / p16 siRNA (GE Healthcare Dharmacon, J-011007-08-0002). ON-TARGETplus Non-targeting Pool (GE Healthcare Dharmacon, D-001810-10-20) was used as a negative control.
[0362] Western blot analysis Whole cell extracts were prepared using RIPA buffer (Thermo Scientific, 89900) containing Halt Protease and Phosphatase Inhibitor Cocktail (Thermo Scientific, 78440). Protein concentration was quantified using the BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Scientific, 23225), and 40 μg of protein lysate was loaded onto a precast gradient gel (Bio-Rad, Hercules, No. 456-1094) for SDS-PAGE. The samples were diluted in 5x Laemmli buffer (300 mM Tris-HCl (pH 6.8), 10% SDS (w / v), 5% 2-mercaptoethanol, 25% glycerol (v / v), 0.1% bromophenol blue (w / v)) and boiled for 5 minutes. 35 μg of protein was separated by 8-15% SDS-PAGE and transferred onto a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane. Nonspecific binding sites on the PVDF membrane were blocked with 5% skim milk in TBST (20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.6), 137 mM NaCl, 1% Tween-20). The membranes were hybridized overnight at 4°C with antibodies against anti-CDKN2A / p16 (Cell Signaling Technology, 92803S), anti-Cas9 (Cell Signaling Technology, 97982S), anti-HA (Cell Signaling Technology, 3724S), anti-Rb (Cell Signaling Technology, 9309S), anti-phospho-Rb (Ser780) (Cell Signaling Technology, 8180S), anti-CDK2 (Cell Signaling Technology, 2546S), anti-CCNE1 (Cell Signaling Technology, 20808S), and anti-GAPDH (Cell Signaling Technology, 8884S), followed by incubation at room temperature for 1 hour with horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-complexed secondary antibodies. The membranes were then developed using Immobilon Western chemiluminescent HRP substrate (Millipore, WBKLS0500).Images were captured using the Odyssey CLx Imager (LI-COR) emission / fluorescence imaging system.
[0363] Cell cycle analysis Cells were seeded in 6-well tissue culture plates and treated 24 hours later with concentration titration of palbociclib or compound A. After overnight treatment, cells were exposed to 10 μM EdU for 3 hours, and EdU-DNA was detected using the Click-iT AlexaFluor® 647 azide kit (Life Technology, C10424) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Bulk DNA was stained with DAPI. Compound-treated and DMSO-treated control cells were acquired using CytoFlex (Beckman Coulter) and analyzed using FlowJo software. For cell cycle analysis of cells with siRNA knockdown, cells were exposed to 10 μM EdU for 3 hours 72 hours after siRNA transfection, and then detected using the Click-iT Alexa Fluor® 647 azide kit.
[0364] plasmid The LentiCas9 plasmid pRCCH-CMV-Cas9-2A (Cellecta, SVC9-PS) was used for Cas9 expression. An sgRNA-CDK2 lentiviral construct designed to target the CDK2 AAGCAGAGATCTCTCGGA (SEQ ID NO: 8) was cloned into the sgRNA expression vector pRSG-U6, which was purchased from Cellecta (93661). For CDK2-FKBP12F36V-HA expression, a 1306 base pair DNA fragment encoding CDK2 and the C-terminal FKBP12F36V-2xHA tag was synthesized and cloned into the EcoRI and BamHI digested pCDH-EF1α-MCS-T2A-Puro lenti vector (Systembio, CD527A-1).

[0366] The restriction enzyme sites GAATTC (SEQ ID NO: 5, EcoRI), GGATCC (SEQ ID NO: 6, BamHI), and TTCGAA (SEQ ID NO: 7, BstBI) are underlined. Sequences encoding CDK2 are in bold, and the FKBP12F36V-HA sequence is italicized. The three underlined nucleic acids within the CDK2 sequence show modifications that omit the PAM site to avoid the CRISPR knockout effect. These modifications did not alter the encoded amino acids.
[0367] lentivirus production Lentiviruses were generated in 293T cells by co-transfection with Lentiviral Packaging Mix (Sigma, SHP001) and a given lentiviral expression plasmid using Lipofectamine 2000. The viral supernatant was collected 48 and 72 hours after transfection and filtered through a 0.22 μm membrane. All cell lines were transduced by spinoculation at 2000 rpm for 1 hour at room temperature using 8 μg / mL of polyblen (Santa Cruz, sc-134220).
[0368] CDK2-dTAG cells OVCAR3 cells were initially engineered to express Cas9 by lentiviral transduction of a Cas9 construct. Selected cells were maintained in 100 μg / mL hygromycin (Life Technologies, 10687010) and Cas9 expression was verified by immunoblotting. Subsequently, OVCAR3-Cas9 cells were engineered to express the CDK2-FKBP12F36V-HA fusion protein by lentiviral transduction of a CDK2-FKBP12F36V-HA expression construct and selection with 2 μg / mL puromycin dihydrochloride (Life Technologies, A1113803). CDK2-FKBP12F36V-HA expression was verified by immunoblotting using anti-CDK2 and anti-HA antibodies. Next, to manipulate the cell line and inactivate endogenous CDK2, OVCAR3 (Cas9, CDK2-FKBP12F36V-HA) cells were transduced with CDK2 sgRNA and selected with 50 μg / mL Zeocin (Life Technologies, R25001). Inactivation of endogenous CDK2 expression in the proliferated clones was tested by immunoblotting. OVCAR3 (Cas9, CDK2-FKBP12F36V-HA) cells transduced with non-target sgRNA (Cellecta) served as a control cell line.
[0369] To degrade the CDK2-FKBP12F36V-HA protein by dTAG, 200,000 cells were seeded in 1 mL of medium in triples in 24-well plates and treated with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or dTAG concentration titration for 14 hours. Cells were collected and processed for Western blotting.
[0370] CDK2 / CCNE1 Enzyme Assay The in vitro CDK2 / CCNE1 enzyme activity assay measures the phosphorylation of peptide substrates using homogeneous time-resolved energy transfer (HTRF). The LANCE® Ultra kinase assay used ULight®-labeled EIF4E-binding protein 1 (Thr37 / 46) peptide (PerkinElmer, TRF0128-M) as a substrate and europium-labeled anti-phospho-EIF4E-binding protein 1 (Thr37 / 46) antibody (PerkinElmer, TRF0216-M). The ratio of the fluorescence transferred to the labeled substrate (665 nm) to the fluorescence of the europium donor (620 nm) represents the degree of phosphorylation. The ratio of treated wells is normalized to DMSO only (100% activity) and no enzyme (0% activity) controls. Normalized data are analyzed using dose-response curves for four parameters, and the IC of each compound is calculated. 50 To decide.
[0371] CDK2 pRb(S780) HTRF Cell Assay The CDK2 pRb(S780)HTRF cell assay enables quantitative detection of Rb phosphorylated on serine 780 in CCNE1-amplified COV318 cells. This assay included two antibodies: europium cryptotate-labeled anti-phospho-Rb S780 antibody (donor) and d2-labeled anti-Rb antibody (acceptor). Briefly, COV318 cells were seeded in 96-well plates at a density of 25,000 cells per well with nine steps of 3-fold serially diluted compounds and cultured overnight at 37°C in 5% CO2. The final compound concentration was started at 3 μM. The following day, cells were lysed in 70 μL of 1x Phospho-total protein lysis buffer #2 (Cisbio) supplemented with 0.7 μL of blocking buffer (Cisbio) and 1.4 μL of protease inhibitor cocktail set III, EDTA-free (Calbiochem, 539134). 16 μL of the cell lysate was mixed with 4 μL of fluorophore-conjugated antibody to final concentrations of 0.188 nM cryptotate-labeled anti-phospho-Rb S780 antibody and 0.14 nM d2-labeled anti-Rb antibody. After incubation at room temperature for 2 hours, the HTRF signal was measured on a PHERAstar microplate reader (BMG Labtech) using a 340 nm excitation wavelength, a 620 nm filter for europium donor fluorescence, and a 665 nm filter for acceptor fluorescence detection. The HTRF signal was calculated as the HTRF ratio (ratio of fluorescence measured at 665 nm and 620 nm) × 10000.
[0372] Example A1.4-((8-cyclopentyl-6,6-dimethyl-7-oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrido[2,3-d[pyrimidine-2-yl)amino)benzenesulfonamide [ka] Step 1: 5-Bromo-N-cyclopentyl-2-methoxypyrimidine-4-amine [ka] To a solution of 5-bromo-2,4-dichloropyrimidine (3.08 mL, 24.05 mmol) in THF (80 mL), cyclopentanamine (2.62 mL, 26.5 mmol) was added, and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours and then filtered.

The crude product was dissolved in DCM (2.5 mL) and pyridine (42.3 μL, 0.523 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was cooled to 0°C, and trifluoromethanesulfonic acid anhydride (96 μL, 0.571 mmol) was added dropwise. Next, the reaction mixture was heated to room temperature and stirred for 2 hours, then quenched with saturated sodium bicarbonate and extracted with DCM. The organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated.
