[0118] ATTORNEY DOCKET NO.: 51121-109WO2 myelomas. Leukemias are cancers found in blood and bone marrow which are caused by rapid production of abnormal white blood cells. Lymphomas are cancers which affect the lymphatic system. Myelomas are cancers of the plasma cells. In most hematologic cancers, normal blood cell development is interrupted by uncontrolled growth of an abnormal type of blood cell. The abnormal blood cells prevent the blood from performing many of its functions. Hematologic cancers account for about 10% of all new cancer diagnoses. The 5-year relative survival rates for hematologic cancers range from about 50% to about 90%.

[0119] As used herein, the term “FHD 286” refers to N-(1-((4-(6-(2,6-dimethylmorpholino)pyridin-2- yl)thiazol-2-yl)amino)-3-methoxy-1 -oxopropan-2-yl)-1 -(methylsulfonyl)-l H-pyrrole-3-carboxamide. As used herein, FHD 286 has the structure:

[0138] The details of one or more embodiments of the invention are set forth in the description below. Other features, objects, and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the description and from the claims.

[0139] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0140] The present disclosure features combination therapies including FHD 286, decitabine, and optionally, an anti-fungal agent for the treatment of AML and related hematological cancers. The combination therapies of the invention can reduce side effects, improve outcomes, and / or reduce the dosing burden on the patient. For example, using the methods described herein the risk of developing differentiation syndrome can be reduced in the subject relative to treatment with the FHD 286, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, alone and / or relative to treatment with the decitabine, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, alone. In some embodiments, the methods of the present disclosure result in one or more (e.g., two or more, three or more, four or more) of: (a) decrease blast count, (b) normal neutrophil counts, (c) normal platelet counts, (d) a bone marrow biopsy which reveals no clusters or collections of blast cells, (e) decreased tumor recurrence (f) increased survival of subject, (g) increased progression free survival of subject. Additionally, using the methods described herein, the risk of developing a fungal infection is reduced in the subject relative to treatment with the FHD 286, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, alone and / or relative to treatment with the decitabine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, alone.

[0141] Treating cancer can result in an increase in average survival time of a population of subjects treated according to the present invention in comparison to a population of untreated subjects. For example, the average survival time is increased by more than 30 days (more than 60 days, 90 days, or 120 days). An increase in average survival time of a population may be measured by any reproducible means. An increase in average survival time of a population may be measured, for example, by calculating for a population the average length of survival following initiation of treatment with the compound of the invention. An increase in average survival time of a population may also be measured, for example, by calculating for a population the average length of survival following completion of a first round of treatment with a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the invention. PATENT

[0142] ATTORNEY DOCKET NO.: 51121-109WO2

[0143] Treating cancer can also result in a decrease in the mortality rate of a population of treated subjects in comparison to an untreated population. For example, the mortality rate is decreased by more than 2% (e.g., more than 5%, 10%, or 25%). A decrease in the mortality rate of a population of treated subjects may be measured by any reproducible means, for example, by calculating for a population the average number of disease-related deaths per unit time following initiation of treatment with a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the invention. A decrease in the mortality rate of a population may also be measured, for example, by calculating for a population the average number of disease-related deaths per unit time following completion of a first round of treatment with a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the invention.

[0144] Exemplary hematological cancers that may be treated by the invention include, but are not limited to multiple myeloma, large cell lymphoma, acute T-cell leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, immunoglobulin A lambda myeloma, diffuse mixed histiocytic and lymphocytic lymphoma, B-cell lymphoma, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, diffuse large cell lymphoma, or nonHodgkin’s lymphoma.
