[0001]Attorney Docket No.49366-0051WO2 METHODS OF TREATING SKP2-ASSOCIATED CANCERS RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims the benefit of priority to U.S. Provisional Appl. No.63 / 673,973, filed on July 22, 2024, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. FIELD This present application relates to methods of treating SKP2-associated cancers by admininstering one or more CDK2 inhibitors. BACKGROUND CDKs perform essential functions in regulating eukaryotic cell division and proliferation. The cyclin-dependent kinase catalytic units are activated by regulatory subunits known as cyclins. At least sixteen mammalian cyclins have been identified. See Johnson, et al., Annu. Rev. Pharmacol. Toxicol. (1999) 39:295-312. Cyclin B / CDK1, cyclin A / CDK2, cyclin E / CDK2, cyclin D / CDK4, cyclin D / CDK6, and likely other heterodynes regulate cell cycle progression. Additional functions of cyclin / CDK heterodynes include regulation of transcription, DNA repair, differentiation and apoptosis. See Morgan D.O., Annu. Rev. Cell. Dev. Biol. (1997) 13:261-291. Overexpression of CDK2 is associated with abnormal regulation of cell-cycle. The cyclin E / CDK2 complex plays and important role in regulation of the G1 / S transition, histone biosynthesis and centrosome duplication. Progressive phosphorylation of Rb by cyclin E / Cdk2 releases the G1 transcription factor, E2F, and promotes S-phase entry. Activation of cyclin A / CDK2 during early S-phase promotes phosphorylation of endogenous substrates that permit DNA replication and inactivation of E2F, for S-phase completion. See Asghar et al., Nat. Rev. Drug. Discov. 2015; 14(2): 130-146. Amplification or overexpression of cyclin A (CCNA2) is known to be involved in several cancer types, including breast, liver, lung, and cervical. See, e.g., Yam et al., Cell Mol. Life Sci. 2002; 59, 1317-1326 and Burkholm et al., Int. J. Cancer, 2001; 93(2) 283-287. Increased activity of cyclin A is also associated with poor clinical prognosis in non-small cell lung cancer. See Volm, et al., Br. J. Cancer, 1997; 75(12) 1774-1778. Similarly, Cyclin E2 (CCNE2) overexpression is associated with endocrine resistance in breast cancer cells. See Caldon et al., Mol. Cancer Ther. 1 Attorney Docket No.49366-0051WO2 (2012) 11:1488-99; Herrera-Abreu et al., Cancer Res. (2016) 76: 2301-2313. The primary function of the ubiquitin–proteasome system (UPS) is to regulate the degradation and function of substrate proteins. The UPS activates and transfers the small protein ubiquitin to target proteins through the concerted action of ubiquitin-activating enzyme, ubiquitin- conjugating enzyme, and ubiquitin ligase, which are commonly abbreviated as E1, E2, and E3, respectively; this process is known as ubiquitination. Polyubiquitin chains are formed when multiple ubiqutins are linked to an existing ubiquitin on the substrate protein. Polyubiquitination of a protein targets the substrate to the proteasome for degradation. RING E3 ligases represent the most diverse group of ubiquitin ligases, and SCF RING E3 complexes in particular play a critical role in cell cycle regulation. SCF complexes are composed of Cullin 1 proteins, RING box proteins such as the adaptor protein S-phase kinase-associated protein 1 (SKP1), and members of the substrate receptor F-box protein family such as S-phase kinase-associated protein 2 (SKP2). SKP2 is a member of the ubiquitin-proteasome system that plays a role in regulating various biological processes. Wang, et al., Front. Oncol. Vol.1, pp.1-10 (2012). SKP2 is one of the components of the SCF E3 ligase complex that target selected proteins for destruction by the 26S proteasome. Frescas and Pagano, Nat. Rev. Cancer Vol.8, pp.438-449 (2008). While SKP2 has S-phase promoting function and is implicated in the ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis of the cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor p27, it is also involved in the ubiquitination and degradation of other cell cycle regulatory proteins, including cyclin E and E2F- 1. Gstaiger, et al., PNAS Vol.89, No.9, pp.5043-5048 (2001). Indeeed, SKP2 can ubiquitinate various cell cycle regulators and induce their proteolysis, including the CDK Kinase Inhibitors (CKIs) p21, p27, and p57. Degradation of these CDK inhibitors increases the activity of Cyclin E and Cyclin A CDK2 complexes, thereby promoting the progression of the cell cycle and cell growth and division. SKP2 deletion has been shown to increase expression of CKI proteins and decrease expression of cyclin E / A and CDK2. This results in cell cycle arrest in the G1 / S phase. SKP2 copy number amplification is also common in multiple solid tumor types including non-small cell lung cancer, small cell lung cancer, esophageal cancer, bladder cancer and others. SKP2 amplified tumors where the CKIs are downregulated and cyclin E / A-CDK2 activated may be predisposed to an efficacious response to small molecule inhibition by a CDK2 inhibitor. 2 Attorney Docket No.49366-0051WO2 SUMMARY The present disclosure is based, in part, on the surprising and unexpected discovery that certain cancers, e.g., SKP2-associated cancers, are particularly vulnerable to CDK2 inhibition. Inhibition of CDK2 can result in reduction of RB phosphorylation and subsequently G1 cell cycle arrest and senescence when CCNE1 is amplified. Inhibitors of CDK2 can also result in the reduction in phosphorylation of DNA synthesis / DNA repair machinery (e.g., NCL, XRCC1, CDC6) and subsequently S-phase cell cycle arrest when SKP2 is amplified. The present disclosure demonstrates that cells grown in vitro with SKP2 amplification experience potent antiproliferative effects from CDK2 inhibition and these in vitro data are manifest as tumor regressions when cells are grown in vivo as mouse xenografts.

In some embodiments, the subject has a cancer that is known to be resistant to one of more 136 Attorney Docket No.49366-0051WO2 of the additional therapies described herein. Accordingly, some embodiments provide a method of treating cancer in a subject in need thereof, comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the subject was previously administered one or more of a CDK4 / CDK6 inhibitor (such as palbociclib, ribociclib, or abemaciclib), an endocrine therapy (such as fulvestrant, toremifene, anastrozole, exemestane, letrozole, and tamoxifen), a HER2 inhibitor (such as neratinib, trastuzumab, dacomitinib, lapatinib, tucatinib, pertuzumab, or margetuximab), cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agents, an EGFR, MEK, RAF or KRAS inhibitor, an inhibitor of the Ras-Raf-MEK-ERK pathway, or a combination of any of the foregoing. In some embodiments, the subject was previously administered one or more of a CDK4 / CDK6 inhibitor (such as palbociclib, ribociclib, or abemaciclib), an endocrine therapy (such as fulvestrant, toremifene, anastrozole, exemestane, letrozole, and tamoxifen), a cytotoxic chemotherapeutic (as described herein), an EGFR, MEK, RAF or KRAS inhibitor (as described herein), an inhibitor of the Ras-Raf-MEK-ERK pathway (as described herein), or a combination of any of the foregoing, and the previous therapy was unsuccessful in treating the cancer. In some embodiments, the subject was previously administered a CDK4 / CDK6 inhibitor (such as palbociclib, ribociclib, or abemaciclib), and an endocrine therapy (such as fulvestrant, toremifene, anastrozole, exemestane, letrozole, and tamoxifen), and the previous therapy was unsuccessful in treating the cancer. In some embodiments, the subject was previously administered a CDK4 / CDK6 inhibitor (such as palbociclib, ribociclib, or abemaciclib) as a monotherapy, and the previous therapy was unsuccessful in treating the cancer. Methods of Inhibiting Although the genetic basis of tumorigenesis may vary between different cancer types, the cellular and molecular mechanisms required for metastasis appear to be similar for all solid tumor types. During a metastatic cascade, the cancer cells lose growth inhibitory responses, undergo alterations in adhesiveness and produce enzymes that can degrade extracellular matrix components. This leads to detachment of tumor cells from the original tumor, infiltration into the circulation through newly formed vasculature, and / or migration and extravasation of the tumor cells at favorable distant sites where they may form colonies. Accordingly, also provided herein are methods for inhibiting metastasis of a cancer in a 137 Attorney Docket No.49366-0051WO2 subject having a cancer in need of such treatment (e.g., a subject at risk of developing metastasis), the method comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a CDK2 inhibitor, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In some embodiments, the cancer is a SKP2-associated cancer. In some embodiments, the CDK2 inhibitor, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is used in combination with an additional therapy or another therapeutic agent, as described herein. The term “metastasis” is an art known term and means the formation of an additional tumor (e.g., a solid tumor) at a site distant from a primary tumor in a subject, where the additional tumor includes the same or similar cancer cells as the primary tumor. Also provided are methods of decreasing the risk of developing a metastasis or an additional metastasis in a subject having a SKP2-associated cancer that include: selecting, identifying, or diagnosing a subject as having a SKP2-associated cancer, and administering a therapeutically effective amount of a CDK2 inhibitor, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof to the subject selected, identified, or diagnosed as having a SKP2-associated cancer. Also provided are methods of decreasing the risk of developing a metastasis or an additional metastasis in a subject having a SK2-associated cancer that includes administering a therapeutically effective amount of a CDK2 inhibitor, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof to a subject having a SKP2-associated cancer. The decrease in the risk of developing a metastasis or an additional metastasis in a subject having a SKP2-associated cancer can be compared to the risk of developing a metastasis or an additional metastasis in the subject prior to treatment, or as compared to a subject or a population of subjects having a similar or the same SKP2-associated cancer that has received no treatment or a different treatment. The phrase “risk of developing a metastasis” means the risk that a subject having a primary tumor will develop an additional tumor (e.g., a solid tumor) at a site distant from a primary tumor in a subject over a set period of time, where the additional tumor includes the same or similar cancer cells as the primary tumor. Methods for reducing the risk of developing a metastasis in a subject having a cancer are described herein. The phrase “risk of developing additional metastases” means the risk that a subject having a primary tumor and one or more additional tumors at sites distant from the primary tumor (where the one or more additional tumors include the same or similar cancer cells as the primary tumor) will develop one or more further tumors distant from the primary tumor, where the further tumors 138 Attorney Docket No.49366-0051WO2 include the same or similar cancer cells as the primary tumor. Methods for reducing the risk of developing additional metastasis are described herein. As used herein, the term “contacting” refers to the bringing together of indicated moieties in an in vitro system or an in vivo system. For example, “contacting” a cell with a compound provided herein includes the administration of a compound provided herein to a subject, such as a human, as well as, for example, introducing a compound provided herein into a sample containing a mammalian cellular or purified preparation containing the cell.
