HSP90-BINDING CONJUGATES AND COMBINATION THERAPIES THEREOF
The disclosure generally relates to a method of treating cancer comprising administering HSP90-binding conjugates or administering two distinct therapeutic agents as a combination therapy. Components of the combination therapy and methods of using the combination therapy are provided.
1 . A method of treating cancer in a subject in need thereof, comprising administering an effective amount of Conjugate 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof to the subject at a dose of 150 mg/m 2 , 175 mg/m 2 , or 200 mg/m 2 body surface area.
2 . A method of treating cancer in a subject in need thereof, comprising administering an effective amount of Conjugate 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof to the subject, wherein the subject has received at least one previous anticancer therapy.
3 . A method of treating cancer in a subject in need thereof, comprising administering an effective amount of Conjugate 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof to the subject, wherein the subject shows partial response or stable disease after the treatment.
4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the dose of Conjugate 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is 175 mg/m 2 .
5 . The method of claim 4 , wherein Conjugate 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is administered once a week for 3 weeks on Day 1, Day 8, and Day 15 followed with one week of no treatment.
6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the cancer is selected from the group consisting of a cancer of anus, breast, cholangiocarcinoma, colon, Ewing sarcoma, liver, lung, neuroendocrine, ovary, pancreas, salivary gland, and sarcoma.
7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the cancer is pancreatic adenocarcinoma, endometrial adenocarcinoma, liposarcoma, or squamous cell carcinoma of the anus, cervix, or head and neck.
8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the ratio of the tumor Conjugate 1 level to the plasma Conjugate 1 level is more than 5.
9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the tumor Conjugate 1 level is more than 300 nM.
10 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the ratio of the tumor SN-38 level to the plasma SN-38 level is more than 3.
11 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the tumor SN-38 level is more than 80 nM.
12 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the subject further receives at least one PARP inhibitor treatment.
13 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the PARP inhibitor is administered on Days 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 of a 7-day cycle.
14 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the PARP inhibitor is talazoparib.
15 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the cancer is small cell lung cancer.
16 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the subject is HPV positive.
17 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the subject further receives 5-FU, leucovorin, or a combination of 5-FU and leucovorin.
