Abstract
Description
[0001] PAT059646-WO-PCT 5 PANRAS INHIBITORS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates to panRAS inhibitors. The disclosure further relates to methods and compositions useful in the treatment and / or diagnosis of cancers that express 10 RAS and / or are amenable to treatment by modulating panRAS expression and / or activity, as well as methods of making those compositions. BACKGROUND
[0002] Ras proteins (K-Ras, H-Ras and N-Ras) play an essential role in various human cancers 15 and are therefore appropriate targets for anticancer therapy. Indeed, mutations in Ras proteins account for approximately 30% of all human cancers in the United States, many of which are fatal. Dysregulation of Ras proteins by activating mutations, overexpression or upstream activation is common in human tumors, and activating mutations in Ras are frequently found in human cancer. For example, activating mutations at codon 12 in Ras proteins function by 20 inhibiting both GTPase-activating protein (GAP)-dependent and intrinsic hydrolysis rates of GTP, significantly skewing the population of Ras mutant proteins to the “on” (GTP-bound) state (Ras(ON)), leading to oncogenic MAPK signaling. Notably, Ras exhibits a picomolar affinity for GTP, enabling Ras to be activated even in the presence of low concentrations of this nucleotide. Mutations at codons 13 (e.g., G13D) and 61 (e.g., Q61K) of Ras are also responsible for 25 oncogenic activity in some cancers.
[0003] Despite extensive drug discovery efforts against Ras during the last several decades, additional efforts are needed to uncover additional medicines for cancers driven by the various Ras mutations. SUMMARY 30

[0128] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that certain compounds described herein can exist in one or more different isomeric (e.g., stereoisomers, geometric isomers, atropisomers, tautomers) or isotopic (e.g., in which one or more atoms has been substituted with a different isotope of the atom, such as hydrogen substituted for deuterium) forms. Unless otherwise 30 indicated or clear from context, a depicted structure can be understood to represent any such isomeric or isotopic form, individually or in combination.
[0129] Compounds described herein can be asymmetric (e.g., having one or more stereocenters). All stereoisomers, such as enantiomers and diastereomers, are intended unless otherwise indicated. 35
[0130] Compounds of the present disclosure that contain asymmetrically substituted carbon atoms can be isolated in optically active or racemic forms. Methods on how to prepare optically active forms from optically active starting materials are known in the art, such as by resolution of racemic mixtures or by stereoselective synthesis. Many geometric isomers of olefins, C=N double bonds, and the like can also be present in the compounds described herein, and all such 40 stable isomers are contemplated in the present disclosure. Cis and trans geometric isomers of PAT059646-WO-PCT 5 the compounds of the present disclosure are described and may be isolated as a mixture of isomers or as separated isomeric forms.
[0131] In some embodiments, one or more compounds depicted herein may exist in different tautomeric forms. As will be clear from context, unless explicitly excluded, references to such compounds encompass all such tautomeric forms. In some embodiments, tautomeric forms 10 result from the swapping of a single bond with an adjacent double bond and the concomitant migration of a proton. In certain embodiments, a tautomeric form may be a prototropic tautomer, which is an isomeric protonation states having the same empirical formula and total charge as a reference form. Examples of moieties with prototropic tautomeric forms are ketone – enol pairs, amide – imidic acid pairs, lactam – lactim pairs, amide – imidic acid pairs, enamine – imine 15 pairs, and annular forms where a proton can occupy two or more positions of a heterocyclic system, such as, 1H- and 3H-imidazole, 1H-, 2H- and 4H-1,2,4-triazole, 1H- and 2H- isoindole, and 1H- and 2H-pyrazole. In some embodiments, tautomeric forms can be in equilibrium or sterically locked into one form by appropriate substitution. In certain embodiments, tautomeric forms result from acetal interconversion. 20
[0132] Unless otherwise stated, structures depicted herein are also meant to include compounds that differ only in the presence of one or more isotopically enriched atoms. Exemplary isotopes that can be incorporated into compounds disclosed herein include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, fluorine, chlorine, and iodine, such as2H,3H,11C,13C,14C,13N,15N,15O,17O,18O,32P,33P,35S,18F,36Cl,123I and125I. Isotopically- 25 labeled compounds (e.g., those labeled with3H and14C) can be useful in compound or substrate tissue distribution assays. Tritiated (i.e.,3H) and carbon-14 (i.e.,14C) isotopes can be useful for their ease of preparation and detectability. Further, substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium (i.e.,2H) may afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability (e.g., increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements). In some 30 embodiments, one or more hydrogen atoms are replaced by2H or3H, or one or more carbon atoms are replaced by13C- or14C-enriched carbon. Positron emitting isotopes such as15O,13N,11C, and18F are useful for positron emission tomography (PET) studies to examine substrate receptor occupancy.
[0133] Preparations of isotopically labelled compounds are known to those of skill in the art. For 35 example, isotopically labeled compounds can generally be prepared by following procedures analogous to those disclosed for compounds described herein, by substituting an isotopically labeled reagent for a non-isotopically labeled reagent.
[0134] As is known in the art, many chemical entities can adopt a variety of different solid forms such as, for example, amorphous forms or crystalline forms (e.g., polymorphs, hydrates, 40 solvate). In some embodiments, compounds disclosed herein may be utilized in any such form, PAT059646-WO-PCT 5 including in any solid form. In some embodiments, compounds described or depicted herein may be provided or utilized in hydrate or solvate form.
[0135] At various places in the present specification, substituents of compounds of the present disclosure are disclosed in groups or in ranges.

For example, the term “C1-C6alkyl” is specifically intended to individually disclose methyl, ethyl, C3alkyl, C4alkyl, C5alkyl, and C6alkyl. Furthermore, where a compound includes a plurality of positions at which substituents are disclosed in groups or in ranges, unless otherwise indicated, the present disclosure is intended to cover individual compounds and groups of compounds (e.g., genera and subgenera) containing each and every individual 15 subcombination of members at each position.
[0136] The term “optionally substituted X” (e.g., “optionally substituted alkyl”) is intended to be equivalent to “X, wherein X is optionally substituted” (e.g., “alkyl, wherein said alkyl is optionally substituted”). It is not intended to mean that the feature “X” (e.g., alkyl) per se is optional. As described herein, certain compounds of interest may contain one or more “optionally 20 substituted” moieties. In general, the term “substituted”, whether preceded by the term “optionally” or not, means that one or more hydrogens of the designated moiety are replaced with a suitable substituent, e.g., any of the substituents or groups described herein. Unless otherwise indicated, an “optionally substituted” group may have a suitable substituent at each substitutable position of the group, and when more than one position in any given structure may 25 be substituted with more than one substituent selected from a specified group, the substituent may be either the same or different at every position.

[0172] Disclosed herein are methods of using the compositions described herein, e.g., the disclosed panRAS inhibitor compounds and compositions, in treating a subject for a disorder, e.g., a cancer. Compositions, e.g., panRAS inhibitors, may be administered alone or in 10 combination with at least one additional inactive and / or active agent, e.g., at least one additional therapeutic agent, and may be administered in any pharmaceutically acceptable formulation, dosage, and dosing regimen. Treatment efficacy may be evaluated for toxicity as well as indicators of efficacy and adjusted accordingly. Efficacy measures include, but are not limited to, a cytostatic and / or cytotoxic effect observed in vitro or in vivo, reduced tumor volume, tumor 15 growth inhibition, and / or prolonged survival.
[0173] Methods of determining whether a panRAS inhibitor exerts a cytostatic and / or cytotoxic effect on a cell are known. For example, the cytotoxic or cytostatic activity of a panRAS inhibitor can be measured by, e.g., exposing mammalian cells to the panRAS inhibitor in a cell culture medium; culturing the cells for a period from about 6 hr to about 6 days; and measuring cell 20 viability (e.g., using a CellTiter-Glo® (CTG) or MTT cell viability assay). Cell-based in vitro assays may also be used to measure viability (proliferation), cytotoxicity, and induction of apoptosis (caspase activation) of the panRAS inhibitor.
[0174] For determining cytotoxicity, necrosis or apoptosis (programmed cell death) may be measured. Necrosis is typically accompanied by increased permeability of the plasma 25 membrane, swelling of the cell, and rupture of the plasma membrane. Apoptosis can be quantitated, for example, by measuring DNA fragmentation. Commercial photometric methods for the quantitative in vitro determination of DNA fragmentation are available. Examples of such assays, including TUNEL (which detects incorporation of labeled nucleotides in fragmented DNA) and ELISA-based assays, are described in Biochemica (1999) 2:34-7 (Roche Molecular 30 Biochemicals).
[0175] Apoptosis may also be determined by measuring morphological changes in a cell. For example, as with necrosis, loss of plasma membrane integrity can be determined by measuring uptake of certain dyes (e.g., a fluorescent dye such as, for example, acridine orange or ethidium bromide). A method for measuring apoptotic cell number has been described by Duke and 35 Cohen, Current Protocols in Immunology (Coligan et al., eds. (1992) pp.3.17.1-3.17.16). Cells also can be labeled with a DNA dye (e.g., acridine orange, ethidium bromide, or propidium iodide) and the cells observed for chromatin condensation and margination along the inner nuclear membrane. Apoptosis may also be determined, in some embodiments, by screening for caspase activity. In some embodiments, a Caspase-Glo® Assay can be used to measure 40 activity of caspase-3 and caspase-7. In some embodiments, the assay provides a luminogenic caspase-3 / 7 substrate in a reagent optimized for caspase activity, luciferase activity, and cell PAT059646-WO-PCT 5 lysis. In some embodiments, adding Caspase-Glo® 3 / 7 Reagent in an “add-mix-measure” format may result in cell lysis, followed by caspase cleavage of the substrate and generation of a “glow-type” luminescent signal, produced by luciferase. In some embodiments, luminescence may be proportional to the amount of caspase activity present, and can serve as an indicator of apoptosis. Other morphological changes that can be measured to determine apoptosis include, 10 e.g., cytoplasmic condensation, increased membrane blebbing, and cellular shrinkage. Determination of any of these effects on cancer cells indicates that a panRAS inhibitor is useful in the treatment of cancers.
[0176] Cell viability may be measured, e.g., by determining in a cell the uptake of a dye such as neutral red, trypan blue, Crystal Violet, or ALAMAR™ blue (see, e.g., Page et al. (1993) Intl J 15 Oncology 3:473-6). In such an assay, the cells are incubated in media containing the dye, the cells are washed, and the remaining dye, reflecting cellular uptake of the dye, is measured spectrophotometrically.
[0177] Cell viability may also be measured, e.g., by quantifying ATP, an indicator of metabolically active cells. In some embodiments, in vitro potency and / or cell viability of 20 prepared panRAS inhibitor compounds may be assessed using a CellTiter-Glo® (CTG) cell viability assay, as described in the examples provided herein. In this assay, in some embodiments, the single reagent (CellTiter-Glo® Reagent) is added directly to cells cultured in serum-supplemented medium. The addition of reagent results in cell lysis and generation of a luminescent signal proportional to the amount of ATP present. The amount of ATP is directly 25 proportional to the number of cells present in culture.
[0178] Cell viability may also be measured, e.g., by measuring the reduction of tetrazolium salts. In some embodiments, in vitro potency and / or cell viability of prepared panRAS inhibitor compounds may be assessed using an MTT cell viability assay, as described in the examples provided herein. In this assay, in some embodiments, the yellow tetrazolium MTT (3-(4, 5- 30 dimethylthiazolyl-2)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) is reduced by metabolically active cells, in part by the action of dehydrogenase enzymes, to generate reducing equivalents such as NADH and NADPH. The resulting intracellular purple formazan can then be solubilized and quantified by spectrophotometric means.
[0179] In certain aspects, the present disclosure features a method of killing, inhibiting or 35 modulating the growth of a cancer cell or tissue by disrupting the expression and / or activity of panRAS (e.g., K-Ras (including splice variants KRAS4A and KRAS4B), H-Ras and N-Ras) and / or one or more upstream modulators or downstream targets thereof. The method may be used with any subject where disruption of panRAS (e.g., K-Ras (including splice variants KRAS4A and KRAS4B), H-Ras and N-Ras) expression and / or activity provides a therapeutic 40 benefit. Subjects that may benefit from disrupting panRAS (e.g., K-Ras (including splice variants KRAS4A and KRAS4B), H-Ras and N-Ras) expression and / or activity include, but are 1 PAT059646-WO-PCT 5 not limited to, those having or at risk of having a cancer such as a tumor or a hematological cancer. In some embodiments, the cancer is a breast cancer including ER positive breast cancer, multiple myeloma, plasma cell myeloma, leukemia, lymphoma, sarcoma, gastric or stomach cancer, acute myeloid leukemia, bladder cancer, brain cancer, bone marrow cancer, cervical cancer, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, esophageal 10 cancer, hepatocellular cancer, lymphoblastic leukemia including acute lymphoblastic leukemia, follicular lymphoma, lymphoid malignancies of T-cell or B-cell origin, metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer, bladder urothelial carcinoma, melanoma, myelogenous leukemia, myeloma, oral cancer, ovarian cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, prostate cancer, small cell lung cancer, spleen cancer, or head and neck cancer. 15
[0180] In some embodiments, the disclosed panRAS inhibitors may be administered in any cell or tissue that expresses EphA2, such as a EphA2-expressing cancer cell or tissue. An exemplary embodiment includes a method of killing a EphA2-expressing cancer cell or tissue. The method may be used with any cell or tissue that expresses EphA2, such as a cancerous cell or a metastatic lesion. Non-limiting examples of EphA2-expressing cancers include breast 20 cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, esophageal cancer, head and neck cancer, gastric or stomach cancer, bladder cancer, and colorectal cancer.
[0181] In some embodiments, the disclosed panRAS inhibitors may be administered in any cell or tissue that expresses B7-H3 (CD276), such as a B7-H3 (CD276)-expressing cancer cell or tissue. An exemplary embodiment includes a method of killing a B7-H3 (CD276)-expressing 25 cancer cell or tissue. The method may be used with any cell or tissue that expresses B7-H3 (CD276), such as a cancerous cell or a metastatic lesion. Non-limiting examples of B7-H3 (CD276)-expressing cancers include colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, lymphoma, non-small cell lung cancer, small cell lung cancer, breast cancer including ER positive breast cancer, metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer, melanoma, bladder urothelial carcinoma, head 30 and neck cancer, and leukemia (e.g., acute myeloid leukemia).
[0182] Exemplary methods include the steps of contacting a cell with a panRAS inhibitor, as described herein, in an effective amount, i.e., an amount sufficient to kill the cell. The method can be used on cells in culture, e.g., in vitro, in vivo, ex vivo, or in situ. For example, cells that express EphA2 (e.g., cells collected by biopsy of a tumor or metastatic lesion; cells from an 35 established cancer cell line; or recombinant cells), can be cultured in vitro in culture medium and the contacting step can be affected by adding the panRAS inhibitor to the culture medium. The method will result in killing of cells expressing EphA2, including in particular cancer cells expressing EphA2. Alternatively, the panRAS inhibitor can be administered to a subject by any suitable administration route (e.g., intravenous, subcutaneous, or direct contact with a tumor 40 tissue) to have an effect in vivo. PAT059646-WO-PCT 5
[0183] The in vivo effect of a disclosed panRAS inhibitor therapeutic composition can be evaluated in a suitable animal model. For example, xenogeneic cancer models can be used, wherein cancer explants or passaged xenograft tissues are introduced into immune compromised animals, such as nude or SCID mice (Klein et al. (1997) Nature Med.3:402-8). Efficacy may be predicted using assays that measure inhibition of tumor formation, tumor 10 regression or metastasis, and the like.
[0184] In vivo assays that evaluate the promotion of tumor death by mechanisms such as apoptosis may also be used. In some embodiments, xenografts from tumor bearing mice treated with the therapeutic composition can be examined for the presence of apoptotic foci and compared to untreated control xenograft-bearing mice. The extent to which apoptotic foci are 15 found in the tumors of the treated mice provides an indication of the therapeutic efficacy of the composition.

[0194] Moreover, panRAS inhibitors of the present disclosure may be administered to a non- human mammal for veterinary purposes or as an animal model of human disease. Regarding the latter, such animal models may be useful for evaluating the therapeutic efficacy of the disclosed panRAS inhibitors (e.g., testing of dosages and time courses of administration).
[0195] The therapeutic compositions used in the practice of the foregoing methods may be 25 formulated into pharmaceutical compositions comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier suitable for the desired delivery method. An exemplary embodiment is a pharmaceutical composition comprising an panRAS inhibitor of the present disclosure and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, e.g., one suitable for a chosen means of administration, e.g., intravenous administration. The pharmaceutical composition may also comprise one or more additional 30 inactive and / or therapeutic agents that are suitable for treating or preventing, for example, a cancer (e.g., a standard-of-care agent, etc.). The pharmaceutical composition may also comprise one or more carrier, excipient, and / or stabilizer components, and the like. Methods of formulating such pharmaceutical compositions and suitable formulations are known in the art (see, e.g., “Remington’s Pharmaceutical Sciences,” Mack Publishing Co., Easton, PA). 35
[0196] Suitable carriers include any material that, when combined with the therapeutic composition, retains the anti-tumor function of the therapeutic composition and is generally non- reactive with the patient’s immune system. Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include any and all solvents, dispersion media, coatings, antibacterial and antifungal agents, isotonic and absorption delaying agents, and the like that are physiologically compatible.

Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers may further comprise minor amounts of auxiliary substances such as wetting or emulsifying agents, preservatives or buffers, which enhance the shelf life or effectiveness of the panRAS inhibitor. 10
[0197] A pharmaceutical composition of the present disclosure can be administered by a variety of methods known in the art. The route and / or mode of administration may vary depending upon the desired results. In some embodiments, the therapeutic formulation is solubilized and administered via any route capable of delivering the therapeutic composition to the cancer site. Potentially effective routes of administration include, but are not limited to, parenteral (e.g., 15 intravenous, subcutaneous), intraperitoneal, intramuscular, intratumor, intradermal, intraorgan, orthotopic, and the like. In some embodiments, the administration is intravenous, subcutaneous, intraperitoneal, or intramuscular. The pharmaceutically acceptable carrier should be suitable for the route of administration, e.g., intravenous or subcutaneous administration (e.g., by injection or infusion). Depending on the route of administration, the 20 active compound(s), i.e., the panRAS inhibitor and / or any additional therapeutic agent, may be coated in a material to protect the compound(s) from the action of acids and other natural conditions that may inactivate the compound(s). Administration can be either systemic or local.
[0198] The therapeutic compositions disclosed herein may be sterile and stable under the conditions of manufacture and storage, and may be in a variety of forms. These include, for 25 example, liquid, semi-solid, and solid dosage forms, such as liquid solutions (e.g., injectable and infusible solutions), dispersions or suspensions, tablets, pills, powders, liposomes, and suppositories. The form depends on the intended mode of administration and therapeutic application. In some embodiments, the disclosed panRAS inhibitors can be incorporated into a pharmaceutical composition suitable for parenteral administration. The injectable solution may30 be composed of either a liquid or lyophilized dosage form in a flint or amber vial, ampule, or pre- filled syringe, or other known delivery or storage device. In some embodiments, one or more of the panRAS inhibitors or pharmaceutical compositions is supplied as a dry sterilized lyophilized powder or water free concentrate in a hermetically sealed container and can be reconstituted (e.g., with water or saline) to the appropriate concentration for administration to a subject. 35
[0199] Typically, a therapeutically effective amount or efficacious amount of a disclosed composition, e.g., a disclosed panRAS inhibitor, is employed in the pharmaceutical compositions of the present disclosure. The composition, e.g., one comprising an panRAS inhibitor, may be formulated into a pharmaceutically acceptable dosage form by conventional methods known in the art. Dosages and administration protocols for the treatment of cancers 40 using the foregoing methods will vary with the method and the target cancer, and will generally depend on a number of other factors appreciated in the art. PAT059646-WO-PCT 5
[0200] Dosage regimens for compositions disclosed herein, e.g., those comprising panRAS inhibitors alone or in combination with at least one additional inactive and / or active therapeutic agent, may be adjusted to provide the optimum desired response (e.g., a therapeutic response). For example, a single bolus of one or both agents may be administered at one time, several divided doses may be administered over a predetermined period of time, or the dose of one or 10 both agents may be proportionally increased or decreased as indicated by the exigencies of the therapeutic situation. In some embodiments, treatment involves single bolus or repeated administration of the panRAS inhibitor preparation via an acceptable route of administration. In some embodiments, the panRAS inhibitor is administered to the patient daily, weekly, monthly, or any time period in between. For any particular subject, specific dosage regimens may be 15 adjusted over time according to the individual’s need, and the professional judgment of the treating clinician. Parenteral compositions may be formulated in dosage unit form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage. Dosage unit form as used herein refers to physically discrete units suited as unitary dosages for the subjects to be treated; each unit contains a predetermined quantity of active compound calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect 20 in association with the required pharmaceutical carrier.
[0201] Dosage values for compositions comprising a panRAS inhibitor and / or any additional therapeutic agent(s), may be selected based on the unique characteristics of the active compound(s), and the particular therapeutic effect to be achieved. A physician or veterinarian can start doses of the panRAS inhibitor employed in the pharmaceutical composition at levels 25 lower than that required to achieve the desired therapeutic effect and gradually increase the dosage until the desired effect is achieved. In general, effective doses of the compositions of the present disclosure, for the treatment of a cancer may vary depending upon many different factors, including means of administration, target site, physiological state of the patient, whether the patient is human or an animal, other medications administered, and whether treatment is 30 prophylactic or therapeutic. The selected dosage level may also depend upon a variety of pharmacokinetic factors including the activity of the particular compositions of the present disclosure employed, or the ester, salt, or amide thereof, the route of administration, the time of administration, the rate of excretion of the particular compound being employed, the duration of the treatment, other drugs, compounds and / or materials used in combination with the particular 35 compositions employed, the age, sex, weight, condition, general health and prior medical history of the patient being treated, and like factors. Treatment dosages may be titrated to optimize safety and efficacy.
[0202] Toxicity and therapeutic efficacy of compounds provided herein can be determined by standard pharmaceutical procedures in cell culture or in animal models. For example, LD50, 40 ED50, EC50, and IC50 may be determined, and the dose ratio between toxic and therapeutic effects (LD50 / ED50) may be calculated as the therapeutic index. The data obtained from in PAT059646-WO-PCT 5 vitro and in vivo assays can be used in estimating or formulating a range of dosage for use in humans. For example, the compositions and methods disclosed herein may initially be evaluated in xenogeneic cancer models (e.g., an NCI-H929 multiple myeloma mouse model).
[0203] In some embodiments, a panRAS inhibitor or composition comprising a panRAS inhibitor is administered on a single occasion. In other embodiments, a panRAS inhibitor or composition 10 comprising a panRAS inhibitor is administered on multiple occasions. Intervals between single dosages can be, e.g., daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly. Intervals can also be irregular, based on measuring blood levels of the administered agent (e.g., the panRAS inhibitor) in the patient in order to maintain a relatively consistent plasma concentration of the agent. The dosage and frequency of administration of a panRAS inhibitor or composition comprising a panRAS inhibitor 15 may also vary depending on whether the treatment is prophylactic or therapeutic. In prophylactic applications, a relatively low dosage may be administered at relatively infrequent intervals over a long period of time. Some patients continue to receive treatment for the rest of their lives. In therapeutic applications, a relatively higher dosage at relatively shorter intervals is sometimes required until progression of the disease is reduced or terminated, and preferably 20 until the patient shows partial or complete amelioration of one or more symptoms of disease. Thereafter, the patient may be administered a lower, e.g., prophylactic regime.
[0204] The above therapeutic approaches can be combined with any one of a wide variety of additional surgical, chemotherapy, or radiation therapy regimens. In some embodiments, the panRAS inhibitors or compositions disclosed herein are co-formulated and / or co-administered 25 with one or more additional therapeutic agents, e.g., one or more chemotherapeutic agents, one or more standard-of-care agents for the particular condition being treated.
[0205] Kits for use in the therapeutic and / or diagnostic applications described herein are also provided. Such kits may comprise a carrier, package, or container that is compartmentalized to receive one or more containers such as vials, tubes, and the like, each of the container(s) 30 comprising one of the separate elements to be used in a method disclosed herein.
