Description

x xOMPOSITIONS COMPRISING USP1 INHIBITORS AND METHODS OF USING THE SAME CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No.63 / 610,860 filed December 15, 2023, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD The subject matter described herein relates to compositions comprising Ubiquitin- Specific Protease 1 (USP1) inhibitors and methods of using the same. BACKGROUND The USP1 gene encodes a deubiquitinase that is directly involved in DNA damage repair by regulating the ubiquitination of key regulators like PCNA and FANCD2. Overexpression of USP1 is commonly observed in osteosarcoma, colorectal, non-small cell lung, and gastric cancers, and blockade of USP1 induces apoptosis in many cancers. Moreover, several USP1 inhibitors sensitize cancer cells to platinum-, DNA-damaging-, and radiation-induced death. Given the well-established role USP1 as a selective anti-cancer target for inhibition, there remains a need in the art for new USP1 inhibitors for use in the treatment of such cancers.

Phenolate salts are the alkali earth metal salts, sodium, potassium or lithium. The term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" in this respect, refers to the relatively non-toxic, inorganic and organic acid or base addition salts of compounds of the present invention. These salts can be prepared in situ during the final isolation and purification of the compounds of the invention, or by separately reacting a purified compound of the invention in its free base or free acid form with a suitable organic or inorganic acid or base, and isolating the salt thus formed. Representative salts include the hydrobromide, hydrochloride, sulfate, bisulfate, phosphate, nitrate, acetate, valerate, oleate, palmitate, stearate, laurate, benzoate, lactate, phosphate, tosylate, citrate, maleate, fumarate, succinate, tartrate, napthylate, mesylate, glucoheptonate, lactobionate, and laurylsulphonate salts and the like.

The unit will be in a form suitable for oral, nasal, rectal, topical, intravenous or direct injection or parenteral administration. The compounds can be administered alone or mixed with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. This carrier can be a solid or liquid, and the type of carrier is generally chosen based on the type of administration being used. The active agent can be co-administered in the form of a tablet or capsule, liposome, as an agglomerated powder or in a liquid form.
