Pharmaceutical combinations comprising a histone deacetylase inhibitor and a BCL-2 inhibitor and methods of use thereof
The present disclosure relates to a pharmaceutical combination comprising (a) a histone deacetylase 6 inhibitor and (b) a BCL-2 inhibitor, including combined preparations and pharmaceutical compositions thereof; uses of such combination in the treatment or prevention of cancer; and methods of treating or preventing cancer in a subject comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of such combination.
1. A method for treating or preventing cancer in a subject in need thereof, comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of
(a) a histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) inhibitor, wherein HDAC6 inhibitor is:
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; and
(b) a BCL-2 inhibitor, wherein the BCL-2 inhibitor is 2-((1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-5-yl)oxy)-4-(4-((4′-chloro-5,5-dimethyl-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-[1,1′-biphenyl]-2-yl)methyl)piperazin-1-yl)-N-((3-nitro-4-(((tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)methyl)amino)phenyl)sulfonyl)benzamide (venetoclax), or a pharamceutically acceptable salt thereof.
2. The method of any one of claims 1 , wherein the cancer is refractory or resistant to treatment with at least one prior therapy.
3. The method of any one of claims 1 , wherein the HDAC6 inhibitor and the BCL-2 inhibitor are administered at approximately the same time.
4. The method of any one of claims 1 , wherein the HDAC6 inhibitor and the BCL-2 inhibitor are administered at different times.
5. A method of decreasing cell growth and viability, comprising contacting the cell with a pharmaceutical combination of a therapeutically effective amount of (a) a histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) inhibitor wherein the HDAC6 inhibitor is:
(b) a BCL-2 inhibitor, wherein the BCL-2 inhibitor is 2-((1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-5-yl)oxy)-4-(4-((4′-chloro-5,5-dimethyl-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-[1,1′-biphenyl]-2-ylmethyl)piperazin-1-yl)-N-((3-nitro-4-(((tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)methyl)amino)phenyl)sulfonyl)benzamide (venetoclax), or a pharamceutically acceptable salt thereof,
wherein the cell is a leukemia cell.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cancer is leukemia.
