AI Technical Summary
Existing treatments for MTAP-null gastrointestinal cancers, such as pancreatic adenocarcinoma, face challenges in selectively targeting PRMT5 in tumor cells while minimizing effects on normal tissues, due to the vulnerability of PRMT5 in MTAP-null tumors and the potential liabilities of broad PRMT5 inhibition.
Administering a combination of Compound G, gemcitabine, paclitaxel, and optionally anti-PD1 or anti-PDL1 antibodies, to selectively target PRMT5 in MTAP-null gastrointestinal cancers, leveraging the metabolic vulnerability of elevated MTA levels in tumor cells.
This approach provides a therapeutic index that preferentially targets MTAP-null tumors, reducing side effects on normal tissues by exploiting the metabolic vulnerability of PRMT5 in tumor cells, thereby effectively treating gastrointestinal cancers like pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

GASTROINTESTINAL CANCER TREATMENTS USING MTA-COOPERATIVE PRMT5 INHIBITORSCROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] This application claims the benefit of priority to each of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 575,379, filed April 5, 2024, and U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 575,402, filed April 5, 2024.BACKGROUND
[0002] Epigenetic regulation of gene expression is an important biological determinant of protein production and cellular differentiation and plays a significant pathogenic role in a number of human diseases. Epigenetic regulation involves heritable modification of genetic material without changing its nucleotide sequence. Typically, epigenetic regulation is mediated by selective and reversible modification (e.g., methylation) of DNA and proteins (e.g., histones) that control the conformational transition between transcriptionally active and inactive states of chromatin. These covalent modifications can be controlled by enzymes such as methyltransferases (e.g., PRMT5), many of which are associated with specific genetic alterations that can cause human disease. PRMT5 plays a role in diseases such as proliferative disorders, metabolic disorders, and blood disorders.
[0003] The homozygous deletion of tumor suppressor genes is a key driver of cancer, frequently resulting in the collateral loss of passenger genes located in close genomic proximity to the tumor suppressor. Deletion of these passenger genes can create therapeutically tractable vulnerabilities that are specific to tumor cells. Homozygous deletion of the chromosome 9p21 locus, which harbors the well-known tumor suppressor CDKN2A (cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 2A), occurs in 15% of all tumors and frequently includes the passenger gene MTAP (methylthioadenosine phosphorylase), a key enzyme in the methionine and adenine salvage pathways. Deletion of MTAP results in accumulation of its substrate, methylthioadenosine (MTA). MTA shares close structural similarity to S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), the substrate methyl donor for the type II methyltransferase PRMT5. Elevated MTA levels, driven by loss of MTAP, selectively compete with SAM for binding to PRMT5, placing the methyltransferase in a hypomorphic state, vulnerable to further PRMT5 inhibition. Multiple genome scale shRNA dropout screens performed in large tumor cell line panels have identified a strong correlation between MTAP loss and cell line dependency on PRMT5, further highlighting the strength of this metabolic vulnerability. However, PRMT5 is a known cell essential gene and conditional PRMT5 knockout and siRNA knockdown studies suggest that significant liabilities could be associated with inhibiting PRMT5 in normal tissues (e.g. pan-cytopenia, infertility, skeletal muscle loss, cardiac hypertrophy, others). Therefore, novel strategies are required to exploit this metabolic vulnerability and preferentially target PRMT5 in MTAP-null tumors while sparing PRMT5 in normal tissues (MTAP WT). Targeting PRMT5 with an MTA-cooperative small molecule inhibitor could preferentially target the MTA bound state of PRMT5, enriched in MTAP-null tumor cells, while providing an improved therapeutic index over normal cells where MTAP is intact and MTA levels are low.SUMMARY

[0043] The disclosure provides methods of treating a MTAP-null gastrointestinal cancer in a patient in need thereof. A MTAP-null cancer refers to a cancer that lacks expression of the enzyme methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP). The MTAP gene, located at chromosomal locus 9p21 is frequently co-deleted with the CDKN2A and CDKN2B genes. Selective MTAP deficiency, refers to deficiency without co-deletion of the CDKN2 genes, due either to selective deletion of the MTAP locus or to methylation of the MTAP promoter. MTAP-null cancers include MTAP-deficiency in at least 1% of disease cells, and in some cases, at least 20% of disease cells. Terms "MTAP-null”, "MTAP-deficient”, "MTAP-negative”, and "MTAP-deleted” are used interchangeably.
[0044] An "MTAP-deficiency-related” or "MTAP-deficiency” or "MTAP deficient” disease (for example, a proliferating disease, e.g., a cancer) or a disease (for example, a proliferating disease, e.g., a cancer) "associated with MTAP deficiency” or a disease (for example, a proliferating disease, e.g., a cancer) "characterized by MTAP deficiency” and the like refer to an ailment (for example, a proliferating disease, e.g., a cancer) wherein a significant number of cells are MTAP-deficient. For example, in a MTAP-deficiency-related disease, one or more disease cells can have a significantly reduced post-translational modification, production, expression, level, stability and / or activity of MTAP. In a patient afflicted with a MTAP-deficiency-related disease, it is possible that some disease cells (e.g., cancer cells) can be MTAP-deficient while others are not. Similarly, some disease cells may be MTA-accumulating while others are not. Thus, the present disclosure encompasses methods of treatment involving diseases of these tissues, or any other tissues, wherein the proliferation of MTAP-deficient and / or MTA- accumulating cells can be inhibited by administration of a PRMT5 inhibitor. Some cancer cells which are MTAP-deficient are also deficient in CDKN2A; the post-translational modification, production, expression, level, stability and / or activity of the CDKN2A gene or its product are decreased in these cells. The genes for MTAP and CDKN2A are in close proximity on chromosome 9p21; MTAP is located approximately 100 kb telomeric to CDKN2A. Many cancer cell types harbor CDKN2A / MTAP loss (loss of both genes). Thus, in some embodiments, a MTAP-deficient cell is also deficient in CDKN2A. MTAP-null cancers can be identified by any suitable diagnostic test. Exemplary diagnostic tests for MTAP-deletion or MTAP protein loss include immunohistochemistry (IHC) and local or central next generation sequencing (NGS).
[0045] Gastrointestinal cancers include, but are not limited to, anal cancer, appendix cancer, biliary duct cancer, biliary tract cancer, colon cancer, esophageal cancer, gallbladder cancer, gastric cancer, gastrointestinal stromal tumors, islet cell tumors, liver cancer, gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumor, pancreatic cancer, rectal cancer, and small intestine cancer. In some cases, the gastrointestinal cancer is biliary tract cancer or pancreatic cancer. In some embodiments, the MTAP-null gastrointestinal cancer is locally advanced. In some embodiments, the MTAP-null gastrointestinal cancer is metastatic.
[0046] In some embodiments, the MTAP-null gastrointestinal cancer is biliary tract cancer. Biliary tract cancer, or cholangiocarcinoma, arises from the biliary epithelium of the small ducts in the periphery of the liver (intrahepatic) and the main ducts of the hilum (extrahepatic). Extrahepatic biliary tract cancers include gallbladdercancer, ampullary cancer, and cancer of the pancreatic biliary ducts. In some embodiments, the biliary tract cancer is locally advanced. In some cases, the biliary tract cancer is metastatic.
[0047] In some embodiments, the MTAP-null gastrointestinal cancer is pancreatic cancer. In some embodiments, the MTAP-null gastrointestinal cancer is pancreatic adenocarcinoma (e.g., pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC)). In some embodiments, the pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is locally advanced. In some embodiments, the pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is metastatic.Monitoring Efficacy of Treatment
[0048] The efficacy of a given treatment for cancer can be determined by the skilled clinician. However, a treatment is considered effective if any one or all of the signs or symptoms of e.g., a tumor are altered in a beneficial manner or other clinically accepted symptoms are improved, or even ameliorated, e.g., by at least 10% following treatment with an agent as described herein. Efficacy can also be measured by stabilization of disease or its symptoms or failure of an individual to worsen as assessed by hospitalization or need for medical interventions (i.e., progression of the disease is halted). Methods of measuring these indicators are known to those of skill in the art and / or described herein.
[0049] The patient can respond to the therapy as measured by at least a stable disease (SD), as determined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 protocol (Eisenhauer, et al., 2009). RECIST v1 .1 is discussed in detail in the examples below. An at least stable disease is one that is a stable disease, has shown a partial response (PR) or has shown a complete response (CR) (i.e., "at least SD” = SD+PR+CR, often referred to as disease control). In various embodiments, the stable disease has neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for partial response (PR) nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease (PD). In various embodiments, the patient exhibits at least a partial response (i.e., "at least PR” = PR+CR, often referred to as objective response). Additionally, or alternatively, patient response can be determined by Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANG) criteria, see, e.g., Chen et al., Front Oncol., 2021 11 :679331 .
[0050] Response can be measured by one or more of decrease in tumor size, suppression or decrease of tumor growth, decrease in target or tumor lesions, delayed time to progression, no new tumor or lesion, a decrease in new tumor formation, an increase in survival or progression-free survival (PFS), and no metastases. In various embodiments, the progression of a patient's disease can be assessed by measuring tumor size, tumor lesions, or formation of new tumors or lesions, by assessing the patient using a computerized tomography (CT) scan, a positron emission tomography (PET) scan, a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan, an X-ray, ultrasound, or some combination thereof. In some embodiments, progression of a patient's disease (e.g., progression free survival) can be assessed by measuring ctDNA reduction from baseline.
[0051] Progression free survival (PFS) can be assessed as described in the RECIST 1.1 protocol. In various embodiments, the patient exhibits a PFS of at least 1 month. In various embodiments, the patient exhibits a PFS of at least 3 months. In some embodiments, the patient exhibits a PFS of at least 6 months.
