Abstract

This disclosure relates to the field of therapeutic tyrosine kinase inhibitors, in particular Bruton tyrosine kinase (“BTK”) inhibitors for treatment of subjects with relapsing multiple sclerosis.

Claims (37)

1. A method of reducing the number of new gadolinium (Gd)-enhancing T1 hyperintense lesions, comprising administering to a human subject in need thereof that has relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS) an effective amount of (R)-1-(1-acryloylpiperidin-3-yl)-4-amino-3-(4-phenoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2(3H)-one.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the effective amount is a dose of about 5 mg to about 60 mg of (R)-1-(1-acryloylpiperidin-3-yl)-4-amino-3-(4-phenoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2(3H)-one.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the dose is 5 mg.

4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the dose is 15 mg.

5. The method of claim 2 , wherein the dose is 30 mg.

6. The method of claim 2 , wherein the dose is 60 mg.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein administration of (R)-1-(1-acryloylpiperidin-3-yl)-4-amino-3-(4-phenoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2(3H)-one inhibits the formation of new active brain lesions as measured by MRI.

8. The method of claim 2 , wherein the dose is once daily.

9. The method of claim 2 , wherein the dose is administered once daily with food.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein administration of (R)-1-(1-acryloylpiperidin-3-yl)-4-amino-3-(4-phenoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2(3H)-one reduces RGS1 expression in a brain cell.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein administration of (R)-1-(1-acryloylpiperidin-3-yl)-4-amino-3-(4-phenoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2(3H)-one reduces the number of new gadolinium (Gd)-enhancing T1 hyperintense lesions as measured by MRI.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the number of new Gd-enhancing T1 hyperintense lesions is less than 1.

13. The method of claim 11 , wherein no new Gd-enhancing T1 hyperintense lesions are formed after 12 weeks of (R)-1-(1-acryloylpiperidin-3-yl)-4-amino-3-(4-phenoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2(3H)-one treatment.

14. The method of claim 1 , wherein administration of (R)-1-(1-acryloylpiperidin-3-yl)-4-amino-3-(4-phenoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2(3H)-one reduces the number of new or enlarging T2 lesions as measured by MRI.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the number of new or enlarging T2 lesions is equal to or less than 2.

16. The method of claim 1 , wherein administration of (R)-1-(1-acryloylpiperidin-3-yl)-4-amino-3-(4-phenoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2(3H)-one reduces the total number of Gd-enhancing T1-hyperintense lesions after 12 weeks of (R)-1-(1-acryloylpiperidin-3-yl)-4-amino-3-(4-phenoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2(3H)-one treatment.

17. The method of claim 2 , wherein the dose is 60 mg, and wherein one or zero new Gd-enhancing T1 hyperintense lesion is formed after 12 weeks of (R)-1-(1-acryloylpiperidin-3-yl)-4-amino-3-(4-phenoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2(3H)-one treatment.

18. The method of claim 2 , wherein the dose is 60 mg, and wherein the number of new or enlarging T2 lesions is equal to or less than 2 after 12 weeks of (R)-1-(1-acryloylpiperidin-3-yl)-4-amino-3-(4-phenoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2(3H)-one treatment.

19. The method of claim 2 , wherein the dose is 60 mg, and wherein the administration of (R)-1-(1-acryloylpiperidin-3-yl)-4-amino-3-(4-phenoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2(3H)-one reduces the total number of Gd-enhancing T1-hyperintense lesions after 12 weeks of (R)-1-(1-acryloylpiperidin-3-yl)-4-amino-3-(4-phenoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2(3H)-one treatment.

20. The method of claim 1 , wherein (R)-1-(1-acryloylpiperidin-3-yl)-4-amino-3-(4-phenoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2(3H)-one is administered as monotherapy.

21. The method of claim 1 , wherein RMS is chosen from clinically isolated syndrome (CIS), relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS), and relapsing secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (R-SPMS).

22. The method of claim 6 , wherein administration of (R)-1-(1-acryloylpiperidin-3-yl)-4-amino-3-(4-phenoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2(3H)-one inhibits the formation of new active brain lesions as measured by MRI.
