Methods for treating cancers
Disclosed are methods for treating a cancer in a subject (e.g., a human) in need thereof, comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula I: or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The subject may be very high risk or high risk for the cancer. The subject who has the cancer may also be refractory to at least one chemotherapy treatment, or is in relapse after treatment with chemotherapy, or both. The cancer may be a hematologic malignancy, such as leukemia or lymphoma.
1. A method for treating a hematologic malignancy in a human having a 17p deletion, a TP53 mutation, a NOTCH1 mutation, a SF3B1 mutation, a 11q deletion, or any combination thereof, comprising identifying a human in need of treatment for the hematologic malignancy and having one of said deletions or mutations, and administering to said human a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula I:
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the compound of formula I or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is the only anti-cancer therapy administered to the human and wherein the hematologic malignancy is acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), myeloproliferative disease (MPD), chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), multiple myeloma (MM), non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), indolent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (iNHL), refractory iNHL, mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), follicular lymphoma (FL), Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia (WM), T-cell lymphoma, B-cell lymphoma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL), or marginal zone lymphoma (MZL).
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the human has a 17p deletion, a TP53 mutation, or a combination thereof.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the human has a NOTCH1 mutation, a SF3B1 mutation, a 11q deletion, or any combination thereof.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the human is refractory to at least one anti-cancer treatment.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the human is in relapse after treatment with at least one anti-cancer treatment.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the hematologic malignancy is acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL).
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the hematologic malignancy is acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the hematologic malignancy is selected from the group consisting of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), myeloproliferative disease (MPD), chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), multiple myeloma (MM), non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), indolent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (iNHL), refractory iNHL, mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), follicular lymphoma (FL), Waldestrom's macroglobulinemia (WM), T-cell lymphoma, B-cell lymphoma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL), and marginal zone lymphoma (MZL).
9. A method for treating a lymphoma in a human having a 17p deletion, a TP53 mutation, a NOTCH1 mutation, a SF3B1 mutation, a 11q deletion, or any combination thereof, comprising identifying a human in need of treatment for the lymphoma and having one of said deletions or mutations, and administering to said human a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula I:
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the compound of formula I or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is the only anti-cancer therapy administered to the human.
10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the human has a 17p deletion, a TP53 mutation, or a combination thereof.
11. The method of claim 9 , wherein the human has a NOTCH1 mutation, a SF3B1 mutation, a 11q deletion, or any combination thereof.
12. The method of claim 9 , wherein the human is refractory to at least one anti-cancer treatment.
13. The method of claim 9 , wherein the human is in relapse after treatment with at least one anti-cancer treatment.
14. The method of claim 9 , wherein the lymphoma is non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
15. A method for treating a B-cell lymphoma in a human having a 17p deletion, a TP53 mutation, a NOTCH1 mutation, a SF3B1 mutation, a 11q deletion, or any combination thereof, comprising identifying a human in need of treatment for the B-cell lymphoma and having one of said deletions or mutations, and administering to said human a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula I:
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the compound of formula I or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is the only anti-cancer therapy administered to the human.
16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the human has a 17p deletion, a TP53 mutation, or a combination thereof.
17. The method of claim 15 , wherein the human has a NOTCH1 mutation, a SF3B1 mutation, a 11q deletion, or any combination thereof.
18. The method of claim 15 , wherein the human is refractory to at least one anti-cancer treatment.
19. The method of claim 15 , wherein the human is in relapse after treatment with at least one anti-cancer treatment.
