Definitions

  • This disclosure provides chemical entities (e.g., a compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, and/or hydrate, and/or cocrystal, and/or drug combination of the compound) that inhibit epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR, ERBB1) and/or Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2, ERBB2).
  • EGFR epidermal growth factor receptor
  • HER2 ERBB2 Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2
  • These chemical entities are useful, e.g., for treating a condition, disease or disorder in which increased (e.g., excessive) EGFR and/or HER2 activation contributes to the pathology and/or symptoms and/or progression of the condition, disease or disorder (e.g., cancer) in a subject (e.g., a human).
  • This disclosure also provides compositions containing the same as well as methods of using and making the same.
  • Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR, ERBB1) and Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2, ERBB2) are members of a family of proteins which regulate cellular processes implicated in tumor growth, including proliferation and differentiation.
  • EGFR Epidermal growth factor receptor
  • HER2 ERBB2 Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2
  • Several investigators have demonstrated the role of EGFR and HER2 in development and cancer (Reviewed in Salomon, et al., Crit. Rev. Oncol. Hematol. (1995) 19: 183-232, Klapper, et al., Adv. Cancer Res. (2000) 77, 25-79 and Hynes and Stern, Biochim. Biophys. Acta (1994) 1198: 165-184).
  • EGFR overexpression is present in at least 70% of human cancers, such as non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), breast cancer, glioma, and prostate cancer.
  • HER2 overexpression occurs in approximately 30% of all breast cancer. It has also been implicated in other human cancers including colon, ovary, bladder, stomach, esophagus, lung, uterus and prostate.
  • HER2 overexpression has also been correlated with poor prognosis in human cancer, including metastasis, and early relapse.
  • EGFR and HER2 are, therefore, widely recognized as targets for the design and development of therapies that can specifically bind and inhibit tyrosine kinase activity and its signal transduction pathway in cancer cells, and thus can serve as diagnostic or therapeutic agents.
  • EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors TKIs
  • NSCLC advanced non-small cell lung cancer
  • Common mechanisms of resistance include acquired, secondary mutation T790M, C797S, and EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations.
  • NSCLC tumors can have EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations that are intrinsically resistant to current EGFR TKIs.
  • BUB1 Budding uninhibited by benzimidazole, BUB1
  • BUB1 Budding uninhibited by benzimidazole, BUB1
  • This protein is an essential part of the complex network of proteins that form the mitotic checkpoint.
  • the major function of an unsatisfied mitotic checkpoint is to keep the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) in an inactive state.
  • APC/C anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome
  • mitotic checkpoint inhibition through inhibition of BUB1 kinase represents an approach for the treatment of proliferative disorders, including solid tumors such as carcinomas, sarcomas, leukemias and lymphoid malignancies or other disorders, associated with uncontrolled cellular proliferation.

TECHNICAL FIELD
This disclosure provides chemical entities (e.g., a compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, and/or hydrate, and/or cocrystal, and/or drug combination of the compound) that inhibit epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR, ERBB1) and/or Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2, ERBB2). These chemical entities are useful, e.g., for treating a condition, disease or disorder in which increased (e.g., excessive) EGFR and/or HER2 activation contributes to the pathology and/or symptoms and/or progression of the condition, disease or disorder (e.g., cancer) in a subject (e.g., a human). This disclosure also provides compositions containing the same as well as methods of using and making the same.
BACKGROUND
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR, ERBB1) and Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2, ERBB2) are members of a family of proteins which regulate cellular processes implicated in tumor growth, including proliferation and differentiation. Several investigators have demonstrated the role of EGFR and HER2 in development and cancer (Reviewed in Salomon, et al., Crit. Rev. Oncol. Hematol. (1995) 19: 183-232, Klapper, et al., Adv. Cancer Res. (2000) 77, 25-79 and Hynes and Stern, Biochim. Biophys. Acta (1994) 1198: 165-184). EGFR overexpression is present in at least 70% of human cancers, such as non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), breast cancer, glioma, and prostate cancer. HER2 overexpression occurs in approximately 30% of all breast cancer. It has also been implicated in other human cancers including colon, ovary, bladder, stomach, esophagus, lung, uterus and prostate. HER2 overexpression has also been correlated with poor prognosis in human cancer, including metastasis, and early relapse.
EGFR and HER2 are, therefore, widely recognized as targets for the design and development of therapies that can specifically bind and inhibit tyrosine kinase activity and its signal transduction pathway in cancer cells, and thus can serve as diagnostic or therapeutic agents. For example, EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are effective clinical therapies for EGFR mutant advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. However, the vast majority of patients develop disease progression following successful treatment with an EGFR TKI. Common mechanisms of resistance include acquired, secondary mutation T790M, C797S, and EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations. For example, NSCLC tumors can have EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations that are intrinsically resistant to current EGFR TKIs.
Overexpression of another protein, BUB1 (Budding uninhibited by benzimidazole, BUB1) kinase, is often associated with proliferating cells, including cancer cells, and tissues (Bolanos-Garcia VM and Blundell TL, Trends Biochem. Sci. 36, 141 , 2010). This protein is an essential part of the complex network of proteins that form the mitotic checkpoint. The major function of an unsatisfied mitotic checkpoint is to keep the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) in an inactive state. As soon as the checkpoint gets satisfied the APC/C ubiquitin-ligase targets cyclin B and securin for proteolytic degradation leading to separation of the paired chromosomes and exit from mitosis.
Incomplete mitotic checkpoint function has been linked with aneuploidy and tumourigenesis (see Weaver BA and Cleveland DW, Cancer Res. 67, 10103, 2007; King RW, Biochim Biophys Acta 1786, 4, 2008). In contrast, complete inhibition of the mitotic checkpoint has been recognized to result in severe chromosome mis segregation and induction of apoptosis in tumour cells (see Kops GJ et al., Nature Rev. Cancer 5, 773, 2005; Schmidt M and Medema RH, Cell Cycle 5, 159, 2006; Schmidt M and Bastians H, Drug Res. Updates 10, 162, 2007). Thus, mitotic checkpoint inhibition through inhibition of BUB1 kinase represents an approach for the treatment of proliferative disorders, including solid tumors such as carcinomas, sarcomas, leukemias and lymphoid malignancies or other disorders, associated with uncontrolled cellular proliferation.

In all cases the form must be sterile and must be fluid to the extent that it may be easily injected. It also should be stable under the conditions of manufacture and storage and must be preserved against the contaminating action of microorganisms, such as bacteria and fungi.
The carrier also can be a solvent or dispersion medium containing, for example, water, ethanol, polyol (for example, glycerol, propylene glycol, and liquid polyethylene glycol, and the like), suitable mixtures thereof, and vegetable oils. The proper fluidity can be maintained, for example, by the use of a coating, such as lecithin, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersion, and by the use of surfactants. The prevention of the action of microorganisms can be brought about by various antibacterial and antifungal agents, for example, parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, sorbic acid, thimerosal, and the like. In many cases, it will be preferable to include isotonic agents, for example, sugars or sodium chloride. Prolonged absorption of the injectable compositions can be brought about by the use in the compositions of agents delaying absorption, for example, aluminum monostearate and gelatin.
Sterile injectable solutions are prepared by incorporating the active compounds in the required amount in the appropriate solvent with various of the other ingredients enumerated above, as required, followed by filtered sterilization. Generally, dispersions are prepared by incorporating the various sterilized active ingredients into a sterile vehicle which contains the basic dispersion medium and the required other ingredients from those enumerated above. In the case of sterile powders for the preparation of sterile injectable solutions, the preferred methods of preparation are vacuum-drying and freeze-drying techniques, which yield a powder of the active ingredient, plus any additional desired ingredient from a previously sterile-filtered solution thereof.
Intratumoral injections are discussed, e.g., in Lammers, et al., “Effect of Intratumoral Injection on the Biodistribution and the Therapeutic Potential of HPMA Copolymer-Based Drug Delivery Systems” Neoplasia. 2006, 10, 788-795.

In certain embodiments, suppositories can be prepared by mixing the chemical entities described herein with suitable non-irritating excipients or carriers such as cocoa butter, polyethylene glycol or a suppository wax which are solid at ambient temperature but liquid at body temperature and therefore melt in the rectum and release the active compound. In other embodiments, compositions for rectal administration are in the form of an enema.
In other embodiments, the compounds described herein or a pharmaceutical composition thereof are suitable for local delivery to the digestive or GI tract by way of oral administration (e.g., solid or liquid dosage forms.).
Solid dosage forms for oral administration include capsules, tablets, pills, powders, and granules. In such solid dosage forms, the chemical entity is mixed with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients, such as sodium citrate or dicalcium phosphate and/or: a) fillers or extenders such as starches, lactose, sucrose, glucose, mannitol, and silicic acid, b) binders such as, for example, carboxymethylcellulose, alginates, gelatin, polyvinylpyrrolidinone, sucrose, and acacia, c) humectants such as glycerol, d) disintegrating agents such as agar-agar, calcium carbonate, potato or tapioca starch, alginic acid, certain silicates, and sodium carbonate, e) solution retarding agents such as paraffin, f) absorption accelerators such as quaternary ammonium compounds, g) wetting agents such as, for example, cetyl alcohol and glycerol monostearate, h) absorbents such as kaolin and bentonite clay, and i) lubricants such as talc, calcium stearate, magnesium stearate, solid polyethylene glycols, sodium lauryl sulfate, and mixtures thereof. In the case of capsules, tablets and pills, the dosage form may also comprise buffering agents. Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers in soft and hard-filled gelatin capsules using such excipients as lactose or milk sugar as well as high molecular weight polyethylene glycols and the like.
In one embodiment, the compositions will take the form of a unit dosage form such as a pill or tablet and thus the composition may contain, along with a chemical entity provided herein, a diluent such as lactose, sucrose, dicalcium phosphate, or the like; a lubricant such as magnesium stearate or the like; and a binder such as starch, gum acacia, polyvinylpyrrolidine, gelatin, cellulose, cellulose derivatives or the like. In another solid dosage form, a powder, marume, solution or suspension (e.g, in propylene carbonate, vegetable oils, PEG’s, poloxamer 124 or triglycerides) is encapsulated in a capsule (gelatin or cellulose base capsule). Unit dosage forms in which one or more chemical entities provided herein or additional active agents are physically separated are also contemplated; e.g, capsules with granules (or tablets in a capsule) of each drug; two-layer tablets; two- compartment gel caps, etc. Enteric coated or delayed release oral dosage forms are also contemplated.
Other physiologically acceptable compounds include wetting agents, emulsifying agents, dispersing agents or preservatives that are particularly useful for preventing the growth or action of microorganisms. Various preservatives are well known and include, for example, phenol and ascorbic acid.
In certain embodiments the excipients are sterile and generally free of undesirable matter. These compositions can be sterilized by conventional, well-known sterilization techniques. For various oral dosage form excipients such as tablets and capsules sterility is not required. The USP/NF standard is usually sufficient.
In certain embodiments, solid oral dosage forms can further include one or more components that chemically and/or structurally predispose the composition for delivery of the chemical entity to the stomach or the lower GI; e.g., the ascending colon and/or transverse colon and/or distal colon and/or small bowel. Exemplary formulation techniques are described in, e.g., Filipski, K.J., et al., Current Topics in Medicinal Chemistry, 2013, 13, 776-802, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Examples include upper-GI targeting techniques, e.g., Accordion Pill (Intec Pharma), floating capsules, and materials capable of adhering to mucosal walls.
Other examples include lower-GI targeting techniques. For targeting various regions in the intestinal tract, several enteric/pH-responsive coatings and excipients are available. These materials are typically polymers that are designed to dissolve or erode at specific pH ranges, selected based upon the GI region of desired drug release. These materials also function to protect acid labile drugs from gastric fluid or limit exposure in cases where the active ingredient may be irritating to the upper GI (e.g., hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate series, Coateric (polyvinyl acetate phthalate), cellulose acetate phthalate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate, Eudragit series (methacrylic acid-methyl methacrylate copolymers), and Marcoat). Other techniques include dosage forms that respond to local flora in the GI tract, Pressure-controlled colon delivery capsule, and Pulsincap.
Ocular compositions can include, without limitation, one or more of any of the following: viscogens (e.g., Carboxymethylcellulose, Glycerin, Polyvinylpyrrolidone, Polyethylene glycol); Stabilizers (e.g., Pluronic (triblock copolymers), Cyclodextrins); Preservatives (e.g., Benzalkonium chloride, ETDA, SofZia (boric acid, propylene glycol, sorbitol, and zinc chloride; Alcon Laboratories, Inc.), Purite (stabilized oxychloro complex; Allergan, Inc.)).
Topical compositions can include ointments and creams. Ointments are semisolid preparations that are typically based on petrolatum or other petroleum derivatives. Creams containing the selected active agent are typically viscous liquid or semisolid emulsions, often either oil-in-water or water-in-oil. Cream bases are typically water-washable, and contain an oil phase, an emulsifier and an aqueous phase. The oil phase, also sometimes called the “internal” phase, is generally comprised of petrolatum and a fatty alcohol such as cetyl or stearyl alcohol; the aqueous phase usually, although not necessarily, exceeds the oil phase in volume, and generally contains a humectant. The emulsifier in a cream formulation is generally a nonionic, anionic, cationic or amphoteric surfactant. As with other carriers or vehicles, an ointment base should be inert, stable, nonirritating and nonsensitizing. In any of the foregoing embodiments, pharmaceutical compositions described herein can include one or more one or more of the following: lipids, interbilayer crosslinked multilamellar vesicles, biodegradeable poly(D,L-lactic-co-glycolic acid) [PLGA]-based or poly anhydride-based nanoparticles or microparticles, and nanoporous particle-supported lipid bilayers.

Methods of Treatment
Indications
Provided herein are methods for inhibiting epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase (EGFR) and/or human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). For example, provided herein are inhibitors of EGFR useful for treating or preventing diseases or disorders associated with dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same (i.e., an EGFR-associated disease or disorder), such as a central nervous system diseases, a pulmonary disorder, cardiovascular disease, ischemia, liver disease, a gastrointestinal disorder, a viral or bacterial infection, an inflammatory and/or autoimmune disease, or cancer (e.g., EGFR-associated cancer). In some embodiments, provided herein are inhibitors of HER2 useful for treating or preventing diseases or disorders associated with dysregulation of a HER2 gene, a HER2 kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, such as cancer (e.g., HER2- associated cancer). In some embodiments, provided herein are inhibitors of EGFR and HER2.
An “EGFR inhibitor” as used herein includes any compound exhibiting EGFR inactivation activity (e.g., inhibiting or decreasing). In some embodiments, an EGFR inhibitor can be selective for an EGFR kinase having one or more mutations. For example, an EGFR inhibitor can bind to the adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding site in the tyrosine kinase domain. In some embodiments, an EGFR inhibitor is an allosteric inhibitor.
The compounds provided herein can inhibit EGFR. In some embodiments, the compounds can bind to the EGFR adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding site in the tyrosine kinase domain.
The ability of test compounds to act as inhibitors of EGFR may be demonstrated by assays known in the art. The activity of the compounds and compositions provided herein as EGFR inhibitors can be assayed in vitro, in vivo, or in a cell line. In vitro assays include assays that determine inhibition of the kinase and/or ATPase activity. Alternate in vitro assays quantitate the ability of the inhibitor to bind to the protein kinase and can be measured either by radio labelling the compound prior to binding, isolating the compound/kinase complex and determining the amount of radio label bound, or by running a competition experiment where new compounds are incubated with the kinase bound to known radioligands. In some cases, an EGFR inhibitor can be evaluated by its effect on the initial velocity of EGFR tyrosine kinase catalyzed peptide phosphorylation (e.g., Yun et al. Cancer Cell. 2007;l l(3):217-227). In some embodiments, the binding constant of an EGFR inhibitor can be determined using fluorescence kinetics (e.g., Yun et al. Cancer Cell. 2007;l l(3):217-227). Examples of surface plasmon resonance (SPR) binding assays include those disclosed in Li, Shiqing, et al. Cancer cell 7.4 (2005): 301-311. Additional EGFR inhibitor assays can be found, for example, in WO 2019/246541 and WO 2019/165358 both of which are incorporated by reference in their entireties).
Assays can include, for example, proliferation inhibition assays such as those that measure cell growth inhibition, such as an MTS assay or by Cell Titer Gio Luminescent Cell viability assay (Promega®). To perform such an assay, cells are seeded and grown in cell culture plates before being exposed to a test compound for varying durations. Assessment of the viability of the cells following this exposure is then performed. Data are normalized with respect to untreated cells and can be displayed graphically. Growth curves can be fitted using a nonlinear regression model with sigmoidal dose response. As another example, a Western Blot analysis can be used. In such assays cells are seeded and grown in culture plates and then treated with a test compound the following day for varying durations. Cells are washed with PBS and lysed. SDS-PAGE gels are used to separate the lysates which are transferred to nitrocellulose membranes, and probed with appropriate antibodies (e.g., phospho-EGFR(Tyrl 068)(3777), total EGFR (2232), p-Akt(Ser473) (4060), total Akt (9272), p-ERK(Thr202/Tyr204)(4370), total ERK (9102), and HSP90 (SC-7947)).
Additional assays can include, for example, assays based on ALPHALISA TECHNOLOGY® (e g., see the ALPHALISA® EGFZEGFR binding kit from Promega). Such assays use a luminescent oxygen-channeling chemistry to detect molecules of interest in, for example, buffer, cell culture media, serum, and plasma. For example, a biotinylated EGF is bound to streptavidin-coated Alpha donor beads, and EGFR-Fc is captured by antihuman IgG Fc-specific AlphaLISA acceptor beads. When EGF is bound to EGFR, donor beads and acceptor beads come into close proximity, and the excitation of the donor beads provokes the release of singlet oxygen molecules that triggers a cascade of energy transfers in the acceptor beads. This results in a sharp peak of light emission at 615 nm. Such assays can be used, for example, in competitive binding experiments.
Further examples of assays can include assays based on Sox technology (e.g., see the PHOSPHOSENS® Sox-based Homogeneous, Kinetic or Endpoint/Red Fluorescencebased Assays from ASSAYQUANT®). Such assays utilize chelation-enhanced fluorescence (CHEF) using a sulfonamido-oxine (Sox) chromophore in peptide or protein substrates to create real-time sensors of phosphorylation. See, e.g., U.S. Patent Nos. 8,586,570 and 6,906,194.
Potency of an EGFR inhibitor as provided herein can be determined by EC50 value. A compound with a lower EC50 value, as determined under substantially similar conditions, is a more potent inhibitor relative to a compound with a higher EC50 value. In some embodiments, the substantially similar conditions comprise determining an EGFR- dependent phosphorylation level, in vitro or in vivo (e.g., in tumor cells, A431 cells, Ba/F3 cells, or 3T3 cells cells expressing a wild type EGFR, a mutant EGFR, or a fragment of any thereof).
Potency of an EGFR inhibitor as provided herein can also be determined by IC50 value. A compound with a lower IC50 value, as determined under substantially similar conditions, is a more potent inhibitor relative to a compound with a higher IC50 value. In some embodiments, the substantially similar conditions comprise determining an EGFR- dependent phosphorylation level, in vitro or in vivo (e.g., in tumor cells, A431 cells, Ba/F3 cells, or 3T3 cells expressing a wild type EGFR, a mutant EGFR, or a fragment of any thereof).
The selectivity between wild type EGFR and EGFR containing one or more mutations as described herein can also be measured using cellular proliferation assays where cell proliferation is dependent on kinase activity. For example, murine Ba/F3 cells transfected with a suitable version of wild type EGFR (such as VIII; containing a wild type EGFR kinase domain), or Ba/F3 cells transfected with L858R/T790M, Del/T790M/L718Q, L858R/T790M/L718Q, L858R/T790M/C797S, Del/T790M/C797S, L858R/T790M/I941R, exon 19 deletion/T790M, or an exon 20 insertion such as V769_D770insX, D770_N771insX, N771_P772insX, P772_H773insX, or
H773_V774insX (e.g., A767_V769dupASV, V769_D770insASV, D770_N771insNPG, D770_N771insNPY, D770_N771insSVD, D770_N771insGL, N771_H773dupNPH, N771_P772insN, N771_P772insH, N771_P772insV, P772_H773insDNP,
P772_H773insPNP, H773_V774insNPH, H773_V774insH, H773_V774insPH,
H773_V774insAH, or P772_H773insPNP) can be used. Proliferation assays are performed at a range of inhibitor concentrations (e.g., 10 pM, 3 pM, 1.1 pM, 330 nM, 110 nM, 33 nM, 11 nM, 3 nM, 1 nM) and an EC50 is calculated.
An alternative method to measure effects on EGFR activity is to assay EGFR phosphorylation. Wildtype or mutant (L858R/T790M, Del/T790M, Del/T790M/L718Q, L858R/T790M/C797S, Del/T790M/C797S, L858R/T790M/I941R, or
L858R/T790M/L718Q) EGFR can be transfected into cells which do not normally express endogenous EGFR and the ability of the inhibitor (e.g., using concentrations as above) to inhibit EGFR phosphorylation can be assayed. Cells are exposed to increasing concentrations of inhibitor and stimulated with EGF. The effects on EGFR phosphorylation are assayed by Western Blotting using phospho-specific EGFR antibodies.
In some embodiments, the compounds provided herein can exhibit potent and selective inhibition of EGFR. For example, the compounds provided herein can bind to the EGFR adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding site in the tyrosine kinase domain. In some embodiments, the compounds provided herein can exhibit nanomolar potency against an EGFR kinase including an activating mutation or an EGFR inhibitor resistance mutation, including, for example, the resistance mutations in Table 2a or Table 2b (e.g., L747S, D761 Y, T790M, and T854A), with minimal activity against related kinases (e.g., wild type EGFR). Inhibition of wild type EGFR can cause undesireable side effects (e.g., diarrhea and skin rashes) that can impact quality of life and compliance. In some cases, the inhibititon of wild type EGFR can lead to dose limiting toxicities. See, e.g., Morphy. J. Med. Chem. 2010, 53, 4, 1413-1437 and Peters. J. Med. Chem. 2013, 56, 22, 8955-8971.

A “HER2 inhibitor” as used herein includes any compound exhibiting HER2 inactivation activity (e.g., inhibiting or decreasing). In some embodiments, a HER2 inhibitor can be selective for a HER2 kinase having one or more mutations.

See, e.g., Hanker et al. Cancer Discov. 2017 Jun;7(6):575-585; Robichaux et al. Nat Med. 2018 May; 24(5): 638-646; and Yun et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2008 Feb 12;105(6):2070-5. In some embodiments, an assay that detects substrate phosphorylation using a labeled anti-phospho-tyrosine antibody can be used (see, e.g., Rabindran et al. Cancer Res. 2004 Jun 1 ;64( 1 l):3958-65). In some embodiments, the binding constant of a HER2 inhibitor can be determined using fluorescence kinetics (e.g., Yun et al. Cancer Cell. 2007;l l(3):217-227). Examples of SPR binding assays include those disclosed in Li, Shiqing, et al. Cancer cell 7.4 (2005): 301-311. In some embodiments, covalent binding of a HER2 inhibitor to HER2 can be detected using mass spectrometry, see, e.g., Irie et al. Mol Cancer Ther. 2019 Apr;18(4):733-742. Additional HER2 inhibitor assays can be found, for example, in U.S. Patent No. 9,920,060, WO 2019/241715, and U.S. Publication No. 2017/0166598, each of which are incorporated by reference in their entireties.
Potency of a HER2 inhibitor as provided herein can be determined by EC50 value. A compound with a lower EC50 value, as determined under substantially similar conditions, is a more potent inhibitor relative to a compound with a higher EC50 value. In some embodiments, the substantially similar conditions comprise determining an HER2- dependent phosphorylation level, in vitro or in vivo (e.g., in tumor cells or Ba/F3 cells expressing a wild type HER2, a mutant HER2, or a fragment of any thereof).
Potency of an HER2 inhibitor as provided herein can also be determined by IC50 value. A compound with a lower IC50 value, as determined under substantially similar conditions, is a more potent inhibitor relative to a compound with a higher IC50 value. In some embodiments, the substantially similar conditions comprise determining an HER2- dependent phosphorylation level, in vitro or in vivo (e.g., in tumor cells or Ba/F3 cells expressing a wild type HER2, a mutant HER2, or a fragment of any thereof).
Assays can include, for example, proliferation inhibition assays such as those that measure cell growth inhibition, such as an MTS assay or by Cell Titer Gio Luminescent Cell viability assay (Promega®). To perform such an assay, cells are seeded and grown in cell culture plates before being exposed to a test compound for varying durations. Assessment of the viability of the cells following this exposure is then performed. Data are normalized with respect to untreated cells and can be displayed graphically. Growth curves can be fitted using a nonlinear regression model with sigmoidal dose response. As another example, a Western Blot analysis can be used. In such assays cells are seeded and grown in culture plates and then treated with a test compound the following day for varying durations. Cells are washed with PBS and lysed. SDS-PAGE gels are used to separate the lysates which are transferred to nitrocellulose membranes, and probed with appropriate antibodies (e.g., phospho-HER2(Tyrl248)(2247), phospho-EGFR-Tyrl 173 phospho- HER2-Tyr877, phospho-HER2-Tyrl221, total HER2, phospho-AKT-Thr308, phospho- AKT-Ser374, total AKT, phospho-p44/42 MAPK-Thr202/Tyr204, and p44/42 MAPK).
The selectivity between wild type HER2 and HER2 containing one or more mutations as described herein can also be measured using cellular proliferation assays where cell proliferation is dependent on kinase activity. For example, murine Ba/F3 cells transfected with a suitable version of wild type HER2, or Ba/F3 cells transfected with HER2 having one or more mutations such as S310F, S310Y, R678Q, R678W, R678P, I767M, V773M, V777L, V842I, M774AYVM, M774del insWLV, A775_G776insYVMA, A775_G776insAVMA, A775_G776insSVMA, A775_G776insVAG, A775insV G776C, A775_G776insI, G776del insVC2, G776del insVV, G776del insLC, G776C V777insC, G776C V777insV, V777_G778insCG, G778_S779insCPG, or P780_Y781insGSP can be used. Proliferation assays are performed at a range of inhibitor concentrations (e.g., 10 pM, 3 pM, 1.1 pM, 330 nM, 110 nM, 33 nM, 11 nM, 3 nM, 1 nM) and an EC50 is calculated.
An alternative method to measure effects on HER2 activity is to assay HER2 phosphorylation. Wildtype or mutant (S310F, S310Y, R678Q, R678W, R678P, I767M, V773M, V777L, V842I, M774AYVM, M774del insWLV, A775_G776insYVMA, A775_G776insAVMA, A775_G776insSVMA, A775_G776insVAG, A775insV G776C, A775_G776insI, G776del insVC2, G776del insVV, G776del insLC, G776C V777insC, G776C V777insV, V777_G778insCG, G778_S779insCPG, or P780_Y781insGSP) HER2 can be transfected into cells which do not normally express endogenous HER2 and the ability of the inhibitor (e.g., using concentrations as above) to inhibit HER2 phosphorylation can be assayed. Cells are exposed to increasing concentrations of inhibitor and stimulated with EGF. The effects on HER2 phosphorylation are assayed by Western Blotting using phospho-specific HER2 antibodies.

See, for example, WO 2013/050438, WO 2013/092512, WO 2013/167698, WO 2014/147203, WO 2014/147204, WO 2014/202590, WO 2014/202588, WO 2014/202584, WO 2014/202583, WO 2015/063003, WO2015/193339, WO 2016/202755, and WO 2017/021348. In some embodiments, the disease or disorder is cancer.
A “BUB1 inhibitor” as used herein includes any compound exhibiting BUB1 inactivation activity (e.g., inhibiting or decreasing). In some embodiments, a BUB1 inhibitor can be selective for BUB1 over other kinases (e.g., wildtype EGFR). The compounds provided herein can inhibit a Bub kinase. In some embodiments, the compounds provided herein can inhibit BUB1 kinase.
The ability of test compounds to act as inhibitors of BUB 1 may be demonstrated by assays known in the art. The activity of the compounds and compositions provided herein as BUB1 inhibitors can be assayed in vitro, in vivo, or in a cell line. In vitro assays include assays that determine inhibition of the kinase. For example, BUB1 inhibition of a compound provided herein can be determined using a time-resolved fluorescence energy transfer (TR-FRET) assay which measures phosphorylation of a synthetic peptide (e.g., Biotin-AHX-VLLPKKSFAEPG (C-terminus in amide form) by the (recombinant) catalytic domain of human BUB1 (amino acids 704-1085), expressed in Hi5 insect cells with an N-terminal His6-tag and purified by affinity- (Ni-NTA) and size exclusion chromatography. See, for example, WO 2017/021348. In addition, BUB1 activity can be determined at a high ATP concentration using a BUB1 TR-FRET high ATP kinase assay using similar methods as those described above. See, e.g. WO 2019/081486.
In some embodiments, the compounds provided herein exhibit central nervous system (CNS) penetrance. For example, such compounds can be capable of crossing the blood brain barrier (BBB) and inhibiting an EGFR and/or HER2 kinase in the brain and/or other CNS structures. In some embodiments, the compounds provided herein are capable of crossing the blood brain barrier in a therapeutically effective amount. For example, treatment of a patient with cancer (e.g., an EGFR-associated cancer or a HER2-associated cancer such as an EGFR- or HER2-associated brain or CNS cancer or an EGFR-associated or a HER2-associated cancer that has metastasized to the brain or CNS) can include administration (e.g., oral administration) of the compound to the patient.
The ability of the compounds described herein, to cross the BBB can be demonstrated by assays known in the art. Such assays include BBB models such as the transwell system, the hollow fiber (dynamic in vitro BBB) model, other microfluidic BBB systems, the BBB spheroid platform, and other cell aggregate-based BBB models. See, e.g., Cho et al. Nat Commun. 2017; 8: 15623; Bagchi et al. Drug Des Devel Ther. 2019; 13: 3591-3605; Gastfriend et al. Curr Opin Biomed Eng. 2018 Mar; 5: 6-12; and Wang et al. Biotechnol Bioeng. 2017 Jan; 114(1): 184-194. In some embodiments, the compounds described herein, are fluorescently labeled, and the fluorescent label can be detected using microscopy (e.g., confocal microscopy). In some such embodiments, the ability of the compound to penetrate the surface barrier of the model can be represented by the fluorescence intensity at a given depth below the surface. In some assays, such as a calcein- AM-based assay, the fluorescent label is non-fluorescent until it permeates live cells and is hydrolyzed by intracellular esterases to produce a fluorescent compound that is retained in the cell and can be quantified with a spectrophotometer. Non-limiting examples of fluorescent labels that can be used in the assays described herein include Cy5, rhodamine, infrared IRDye® CW-800 (LICOR #929-71012), far-red IRDye® 650 (LICOR #929- 70020), sodium fluorescein (Na-F), lucifer yellow (LY), 5’carboxyfluorescein, and calcein-acetoxymethylester (calcein-AM). In some embodiments, the BBB model (e.g., the tissue or cell aggregate) can be sectioned, and a compound described herein can be detected in one or more sections using mass spectrometry (e.g., MALDI-MSI analyses). In some embodiments, the ability of a compound described herein to cross the BBB through a transcellular transport system, such as receptor-mediated transport (RMT), carrier- mediated transport (CMT), or active efflux transport (AET), can be demonstrated by assays known in the art. See, e.g., Wang et al. Drug Deliv. 2019; 26(1): 551-565. In some embodiments, assays to determine if compounds can be effluxed by the P -glycoprotein (Pgp) include monolayer efflux assays in which movement of compounds through Pgp is quantified by measuring movement of digoxin, a model Pgp substrate (see, e.g., Doan et al. 2002. J Pharmacol Exp Ther. 303(3): 1029-1037). Alternative in vivo assays to identify compounds that pass through the blood-brain barriers include phage-based systems (see, e.g., Peng et al. 2019. ChemRxiv. Preprint doi.org/10.26434/chemrxiv.8242871.vl). In some embodiments, binding of the compounds described herein to brain tissue is quantified. For example, a brain tissue binding assay can be performed using equilibrium dialysis, and the fraction of a compound described herein unbound to brain tissue can be detected using LC-MS/MS (Cyprotex: Brain Tissue Binding Assay www.cyprotex.com/admepk/protein_binding/brain-tissue-binding/).

In some embodiments, the subject is a pediatric subject.
The term “pediatric subject” as used herein refers to a subject under the age of 21 years at the time of diagnosis or treatment. The term “pediatric” can be further be divided into various subpopulations including: neonates (from birth through the first month of life); infants (1 month up to two years of age); children (two years of age up to 12 years of age); and adolescents (12 years of age through 21 years of age (up to, but not including, the twenty-second birthday)). Berhman RE, Kliegman R, Arvin AM, Nelson WE. Nelson Textbook of Pediatrics, 15th Ed. Philadelphia: W.B. Saunders Company, 1996; Rudolph AM, et al. Rudolph ’s Pediatrics, 21st Ed. New York: McGraw-Hill, 2002; and Avery MD, First LR. Pediatric Medicine, 2nd Ed. Baltimore: Williams & Wilkins; 1994. In some embodiments, a pediatric subject is from birth through the first 28 days of life, from 29 days of age to less than two years of age, from two years of age to less than 12 years of age, or 12 years of age through 21 years of age (up to, but not including, the twenty-second birthday). In some embodiments, a pediatric subject is from birth through the first 28 days of life, from 29 days of age to less than 1 year of age, from one month of age to less than four months of age, from three months of age to less than seven months of age, from six months of age to less than 1 year of age, from 1 year of age to less than 2 years of age, from 2 years of age to less than 3 years of age, from 2 years of age to less than seven years of age, from 3 years of age to less than 5 years of age, from 5 years of age to less than 10 years of age, from 6 years of age to less than 13 years of age, from 10 years of age to less than 15 years of age, or from 15 years of age to less than 22 years of age.
In certain embodiments, compounds of Formula (I) (e.g., Formula (I-a), (I-b), (I- c), (I-d), (I-e), (I-f), (I-g), or (I-gl)), or pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates thereof, are useful for preventing diseases and disorders as defined herein (for example, autoimmune diseases, inflammatory diseases, pulmonary disorders, cardiovascular disease, ischemia, liver disease, gastrointestinal disorders, viral or bacterial infections, central nervous system diseases (e.g., neurodegenerative diseases), and cancer). The term "preventing” as used herein means to delay the onset, recurrence or spread, in whole or in part, of the disease or condition as described herein, or a symptom thereof.
The term "EGFR-associated disease or disorder" as used herein refers to diseases or disorders associated with or having a dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase (also called herein an EGFR kinase protein), or the expression or activity or level of any (e.g., one or more) of the same (e.g., any of the types of dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, an EGFR kinase domain, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same described herein). Non-limiting examples of an EGFR-associated disease or disorder include, for example, cancer, a central nervous system disease, a pulmonary disorder, cardiovascular disease, ischemia, liver disease, a gastrointestinal disorder, a viral or bacterial infection, and an inflammatory and/or autoimmune disease (e.g., psoriasis, eczema, atopic dermatitis, and atherosclerosis).
In some embodiments of any of the methods or uses described herein, the inflammatory and/or autoimmune disease is selected from arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, atherosclerosis, and skin related disorders such as psoriasis, eczema, and atopic dermatitis. See, e.g., Wang et al. Am J Transl Res. 2019; 11(2): 520-528; Starosyla et al. World J Pharmacol. Dec 9, 2014; 3(4): 162-173; Choi et al. Biomed Res Int. 2018 May 15;2018:9439182; and Wang et al. Sci Rep. 2017; 7: 45917.
In some embodiments of any of the methods or uses described herein, the central nervous system disease is a neurodegenerative disease. In some embodiments, the central nervous system disease is selected from Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington’s disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, spinal cord injury, peripheral neuropathy, brain ischemia, and a psychiatric disorder such as schizophrenia. See, e.g., Iwakura and Nawa. Front Cell Neurosci. . 2013 Feb 13;7:4; and Chen et al. Sci Rep. 2019 Feb 21;9(1):2516.
The term “EGFR-associated cancer” as used herein refers to cancers associated with or having a dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase (also called herein an EGFR kinase protein), or expression or activity, or level of any of the same. Non-limiting examples of an EGFR-associated cancer are described herein.
The phrase “dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same” refers to a genetic mutation (e.g., a mutation in an EGFR gene that results in the expression of an EGFR protein that includes a deletion of at least one amino acid as compared to a wild type EGFR protein, a mutation in an EGFR gene that results in the expression of an EGFR protein with one or more point mutations as compared to a wild type EGFR protein, a mutation in an EGFR gene that results in the expression of an EGFR protein with at least one inserted amino acid as compared to a wild type EGFR protein, a gene duplication that results in an increased level of EGFR protein in a cell, or a mutation in a regulatory sequence (e.g., a promoter and/or enhancer) that results in an increased level of EGFR protein in a cell), an alternative spliced version of an EGFR mRNA that results in an EGFR protein having a deletion of at least one amino acid in the EGFR protein as compared to the wild type EGFR protein), or increased expression (e.g., increased levels) of a wild type EGFR kinase in a mammalian cell due to aberrant cell signaling and/or dysregulated autocrine/paracrine signaling (e.g., as compared to a control non-cancerous cell). As another example, a dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR protein, or expression or activity, or level of any of the same, can be a mutation in an EGFR gene that encodes an EGFR protein that is constitutively active or has increased activity as compared to a protein encoded by an EGFR gene that does not include the mutation. Non-limiting examples of EGFR kinase protein point mutations/insertions/deletions are described in Table la or Table lb. Additional examples of EGFR kinase protein mutations (e.g., point mutations) are EGFR inhibitor resistance mutations (e.g., EGFR inhibitor mutations). Non-limiting examples of EGFR inhibitor resistance mutations are described in Table 2a or Table 2b. For example, the one or more EGFR inhibitor resistance mutations can include a substitution at amino acid position 718, 747, 761, 790, 797, or 854 (e.g., L718Q, L747S, D761 Y, T790M, C797S, or T854A). Such mutation and overexpression is associated with the development of a variety of cancers (Shan et al., Ce/Z 2012, 149(4) 860-870).
In some embodiments, dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same can be caused by an activating mutation in an EGFR gene. In some embodiments, dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same can be caused by a genetic mutation that results in the expression of an EGFR kinase that has increased resistance to an EGFR inhibitor, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), and/or a multi-kinase inhibitor (MKI), e.g., as compared to a wild type EGFR kinase (see, e.g., the amino acid substitutions in Table 2a or Table 2b) In some embodiments, dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same can be caused by a mutation in a nucleic acid encoding an altered EGFR protein (e.g., an EGFR protein having a mutation (e.g., a primary mutation)) that results in the expression of an altered EGFR protein that has increased resistance to inhibition by an EGFR inhibitor, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), and/or a multi-kinase inhibitor (MKI), e.g., as compared to a wild type EGFR kinase (see, e.g., the amino acid substitutions in Table 2). The exemplary EGFR kinase point mutations, insertions, and deletions shown in Tables la, lb and/or Table 2a, 2b can be caused by an activating mutation and/or can result in the expression of an EGFR kinase that has increased resistance to an EGFR inhibitor), tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), and/or a multi-kinase inhibitor (MKI).
In some embodiments, the individual has two or more EGFR inhibitor resistance mutations that increase resistance of the cancer to a first EGFR inhibitor. For example, the individual can have two EGFR inhibitor resistance mutations. In some embodiments, the two mutations occur in the same EGFR protein. In some embodiments, the two mutations occur in separate EGFR proteins. In some embodiments, the individual can have three EGFR inhibitor resistance mutations. In some embodiments, the three mutations occur in the same EGFR protein. In some embodiments, the three mutations occur in separate EGFR proteins. For example, the individual has two or more EGFR inhibitor resistance mutations selected from Del 19/L718Q, Del 19/T790M, Del 19/L844V, Del 19/T790M/L718Q, Del/T790M/C797S, Del 19/T790M/L844V, L858R/L718Q, L858R/L844V, L858R/T790M, L858R/T790M/L718Q, L858R/T790M/C797S, and
L858R/T790M/I941R, or any combination thereof; e.g., any two of the aforementioned EGFR inhibitor resistance mutations.
The term “activating mutation” in reference to EGFR describes a mutation in an EGFR gene that results in the expression of an EGFR kinase that has an increased kinase activity, e.g., as compared to a wild type EGFR kinase, e.g., when assayed under identical conditions. For example, an activating mutation can be a mutation in an EGFR gene that results in the expression of an EGFR kinase that has one or more (e.g., two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, or ten) amino acid substitutions (e.g., any combination of any of the amino acid substitutions described herein) that has increased kinase activity, e.g., as compared to a wild type EGFR kinase, e.g., when assayed under identical conditions. In another example, an activating mutation can be a mutation in an EGFR gene that results in the expression of an EGFR kinase that has one or more (e.g., two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, or ten) amino acids deleted, e.g., as compared to a wild type EGFR kinase, e.g., when assayed under identical conditions. In another example, an activating mutation can be a mutation in an EGFR gene that results in the expression of an EGFR kinase that has at least one (e.g., at least 2, at least 3, at least 4, at least 5, at least 6, at least 7, at least 8, at least 9, at least 10, at least 12, at least 14, at least 16, at least 18, or at least 20) amino acid inserted as compared to a wild type EGFR kinase, e.g., the exemplary wild type EGFR kinase described herein, e.g., when assayed under identical conditions. Additional examples of activating mutations are known in the art.
The term "wild type" or "wild-type" describes a nucleic acid (e.g., an EGFR gene or an EGFR mRNA) or protein (e.g., an EGFR protein) sequence that is typically found in a subject that does not have a disease or disorder related to the reference nucleic acid or protein.
The term "wild type EGFR" or "wild-type EGFR" describes an EGFR nucleic acid (e.g., an EGFR gene or an EGFR mRNA) or protein (e.g., an EGFR protein) that is found in a subject that does not have an EGFR-associated disease, e.g., an EGFR-associated cancer (and optionally also does not have an increased risk of developing an EGFR- associated disease and/or is not suspected of having an EGFR-associated disease), or is found in a cell or tissue from a subject that does not have an EGFR-associated disease, e.g., an EGFR-associated cancer (and optionally also does not have an increased risk of developing an EGFR-associated disease and/or is not suspected of having an EGFR- associated disease).
Provided herein is a method of treating cancer (e.g., an EGFR-associated cancer) in a subject in need of such treatment, the method comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula (I) (e.g., Formula (I-a), (I- b), (I-c), (I-d), (I-e), (I-f), (I-g), or (I-gl)), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof or a pharmaceutical composition thereof. For example, provided herein are methods for treating an EGFR-associated cancer in a subject in need of such treatment, the method comprising a) detecting a dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same in a sample from the subject; and b) administering a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

J Exp Clin Cancer Res. 2019 May 23;38(1):219); and Ding et al. Cancer Res. 2003 Mar 1;63(5): 1106-13). In some embodiments, the brain tumor is a primary brain tumor. In some embodiments, the brain tumor is a metastatic brain tumor, e.g., a metastatic brain tumor from lung cancer, melanoma, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, colorectal cancer, kidney cancer, bladder cancer, or undifferentiated carcinoma. In some embodiments, the brain tumor is a metastatic brain tumor from lung cancer (e.g., non-small cell lung cancer). In some embodiments, the compounds provided herein exhibit brain and/or central nervous system (CNS) penetrance. In some embodiments, the patient has previously been treated with another anticancer agent, e.g., another EGFR and/or HER2 inhibitor (e.g., a compound that is not a compound of Formula I) or a multi-kinase inhibitor.
In some embodiments, the cancer is a cancer of B cell origin. In some embodiments, the cancer is a lineage dependent cancer. In some embodiments, the cancer is a lineage dependent cancer where EGFR or the dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, plays a role in the initiation and/or development of the cancer.
In some embodiments, the cancer is an EGFR-associated cancer. Accordingly, also provided herein is a method for treating a subject diagnosed with or identified as having an EGFR-associated cancer, e.g., any of the exemplary EGFR-associated cancers disclosed herein, comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula (I) (e.g., Formula (I-a), (I-b), (I-c), (I-d), (I-e), (I-f), (I-g), or (I- gl)), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a pharmaceutical composition thereof as defined herein.
In some embodiments, the dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, includes one or more deletions (e.g., deletion of an amino acid at position 4), insertions, or point mutation(s) in an EGFR kinase. In some embodiments, dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, includes at least one deletion, insertion, or point mutation in an EGFR gene that results in the production of an EGFR kinase that has one or more of the amino acid substitutions, insertions, or deletions in Table la or Table lb. In some embodiments, the dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, includes a deletion of one or more residues from the EGFR kinase, resulting in constitutive activity of the EGFR kinase domain.
In some embodiments, the dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, includes at least one point mutation in an EGFR gene that results in the production of an EGFR kinase that has one or more amino acid substitutions, insertions, or deletions as compared to the wild type EGFR kinase (see, for example, the point mutations listed in Table la or Table lb). In some embodiments, dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, includes at least one point mutation in an EGFR gene that results in the production of an EGFR kinase that has one or more of the amino acid substitutions, insertions, or deletions in Table la or Table lb.
In some embodiments, the dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, includes an insertion of one or more residues in exon 20 of the EGFR gene (e.g., any of the exon 20 insertions described in Table la or Table lb). Exon 20 of EGFR has two major regions, the c -helix (residues 762-766) and the loop following the c-helix (residues 767-774). Studies suggest that for some exon 20 insertions (e.g., insertions after residue 764), a stabilized and ridged active conformation induces resistance to first generation EGFR inhibitors. In some embodiments, the dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, includes an insertion of one or more residues in exon 20 selected from the group consisting of V769_D770insX, D770_N771insX, N771_P772insX, P772_H773insX, and H773_V774insX.

In some embodiments, the dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, includes a splice variation in an EGFR mRNA which results in an expressed protein that is an alternatively spliced variant of EGFR having at least one residue deleted (as compared to the wild type EGFR kinase) resulting in a constitutive activity of an EGFR kinase domain.
In some embodiments, the dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, includes at least one point mutation in an EGFR gene that results in the production of an EGFR kinase that has one or more amino acid substitutions or insertions or deletions in an EGFR gene that results in the production of an EGFR kinase that has one or more amino acids inserted or removed, as compared to the wild type EGFR kinase. In some cases, the resulting EGFR kinase is more resistant to inhibition (e.g., inhibition of its signaling activity) by one or more first EGFR inhibitors, as compared to a wild type EGFR kinase or an EGFR kinase not including the same mutation. Such mutations, optionally, do not decrease the sensitivity of the cancer cell or tumor having the EGFR kinase to treatment with a compound of Formula (I) (e.g., Formula (I-a), (I-b), (I-c), (I-d), (I-e), (I-f), (I-g), or (I-gl)), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof (e.g., as compared to a cancer cell or a tumor that does not include the particular EGFR inhibitor resistance mutation).
In other embodiments, the dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, includes at least one point mutation in an EGFR gene that results in the production of an EGFR kinase that has one or more amino acid substitutions as compared to the wild type EGFR kinase, and which has increased resistance to a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, as compared to a wild type EGFR kinase or an EGFR kinase not including the same mutation. In such embodiments, an EGFR inhibitor resistance mutation can result in an EGFR kinase that has one or more of an increased Vmax, a decreased Km, and a decreased KD in the presence of a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, as compared to a wild type EGFR kinase or an EGFR kinase not having the same mutation in the presence of the same compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

In some embodiments, the EGFR Protein Amino Acid Substitutions/Insertions/Deletions include any one or more, or any two or more (e.g., any two), of the EGFR Protein Amino Acid Substitutions/Insertions/Deletions delineated in Table la, lb and/or Table 2a, 2b; e.g., any one or more, or any two or more (e.g., any two), of the following and independently selected EGFR Protein Amino Acid Substitutions/Insertions/Deletions: V769L; V769M; M766delinsMASVx2;
A767_V769dupASV; A767delins AS VDx3 ; A767delinsASVG; S768_V769insX; V769_D770insX; V769_D770insASV; D770delinsDN; D770delinsDNPH; D770_N771insSV; N771delinsNPH; N771_H773dup; L858R/C797S (or C797G); or Del_19 and C797S (or C797G), or any combination thereof.
As used herein, a “first inhibitor of EGFR” or “first EGFR inhibitor” is an EGFR inhibitor as defined herein, but which does not include a compound of Formula (I) (e.g., Formula (I-a), (I-b), (I-c), (I-d), (I-e), (I-f), (I-g), or (I-gl)), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as defined herein. As used herein, a “second inhibitor of EGFR” or a “second EGFR inhibitor” is an EGFR inhibitor as defined herein, but which does not include a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as defined herein. When both a first and a second inhibitor of EGFR are present in a method provided herein, the first and second inhibitors of EGFR are different. In some embodiments, the first and/or second inhibitor of EGFR bind in a different location than a compound of Formula (I). For example, in some embodiments, a first and/or second inhibitor of EGFR can inhibit dimerization of EGFR, while a compound of Formula (I) can inhibit the active site. In some embodiments, a first and/or second EGFR inhibitor can be an allosteric inhibitor of EGFR, while a compound of Formula (I) can inhibit the EGFR active site.
Exemplary first and second inhibitors of EGFR are described herein. In some embodiments, a first or second inhibitor of EGFR can be selected from the group consisting of osimertinib, gefitinib, erlotinib, afatinib, lapatinib, neratinib, AZD-9291, CL-387785, CO- 1686, or WZ4002.
In some embodiments, compounds of Formula (I) (e.g., Formula (I-a), (I-b), (I-c), (I-d), (I-e), (I-f), (I-g), or (I-gl)), or pharmaceutically acceptable salts and solvates thereof are useful for treating a cancer that has been identified as having one or more EGFR inhibitor resistance mutations (that result in an increased resistance to a first or second inhibitor of EGFR, e.g., a substitution described in Table 2a or Table 2b including substitutions at amino acid position 747, 761, 790, 797, or 854 (e.g., L718Q, L747S, D761 Y, T790M, C797S, T854A)). In some embodiments, the one or more EGFR inhibitor resistance mutations occurs in a nucleic acid sequence encoding a mutant EGFR protein (e.g., a mutant EGFR protein having any of the mutations described in Table 2a or Table 2b) resulting in a mutant EGFR protein that exhibits EGFR inhibitor resistance.
The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) belongs to the ErbB family of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) and provides critical functions in epithelial cell physiology (Schlessinger J (2014) Cold Spring Harb Per sped Biol 6, a008912). It is frequently mutated and/or overexpressed in different types of human cancers and is the target of multiple cancer therapies currently adopted in the clinical practice (Yarden Y and Pines G (2012) Nat Rev Cancer 12, 553-563).
Accordingly, provided herein are methods for treating a subject diagnosed with (or identified as having) a cancer that include administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula (I) (e.g., Formula (I-a), (I-b), (I-c), (I-d), (I- e), (I-f), (I-g), or (I-gl)), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
Also provided herein are methods for treating a subject identified or diagnosed as having an EGFR-associated cancer that include administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula (I) (e.g., Formula (I-a), (I-b), (I-c), (I-d), (I-e), (I-f), (I-g), or (I-gl)), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof or a pharmaceutical composition thereof. In some embodiments, the subject that has been identified or diagnosed as having an EGFR-associated cancer through the use of a regulatory agency-approved, e.g., FDA-approved test or assay for identifying dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, in a subject or a biopsy sample from the subject or by performing any of the non-limiting examples of assays described herein. In some embodiments, the test or assay is provided as a kit. In some embodiments, the cancer is an EGFR-associated cancer. For example, the EGFR-associated cancer can be a cancer that includes one or more EGFR inhibitor resistance mutations.
The term "regulatory agency" refers to a country's agency for the approval of the medical use of pharmaceutical agents with the country. For example, a non-limiting example of a regulatory agency is the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Also provided are methods for treating cancer in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising: (a) detecting an EGFR-associated cancer in the subject; and (b) administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula (I) (e.g., Formula (I-a), (I-b), (I-c), (I-d), (I-e), (I-f), (I-g), or (I-gl)), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof or a pharmaceutical composition thereof. Some embodiments of these methods further include administering to the subject another anticancer agent (e.g., a second EGFR inhibitor, a second compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or an immunotherapy). In some embodiments, the subject was previously treated with a first EGFR inhibitor or previously treated with another anticancer treatment, e.g., at least partial resection of the tumor or radiation therapy. In some embodiments, the subject is determined to have an EGFR-associated cancer through the use of a regulatory agency-approved, e.g., FDA-approved test or assay for identifying dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, in a subject or a biopsy sample from the subject or by performing any of the non-limiting examples of assays described herein.

In some embodiments, the dysregulation in an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase protein, or expression or activity or level of any of the same is one or more EGFR inhibitor resistance mutations (e.g., any combination of the one or more EGFR inhibitor resistance mutations described herein). In some embodiments, the dysregulation in an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase protein, or expression or activity or level of any of the same is one or more EGFR exon 20 insertions (e.g., any of the exon 20 insertions described herein). In some embodiments, the EGFR kinase protein insertion is an exon 20 insertion selected from the group consisting of: V769_D770insX, D770_N771insX, N771_P772insX, P772_H773insX, and H773_V774insX. In some embodiments, the EGFR kinase protein insertion is an exon 20 insertion selected from the group consisting of: V769_D770insX, D770_N771insX, N771_P772insX, P772_H773insX, and
H773_V774insX. In some embodiments, the EGFR kinase protein insertion is an exon 20 insertion selected from the group consisting of: A767_V769dupASV, V769_D770insASV, D770_N771insNPG, D770_N771insNPY, D770_N771insSVD, D770_N771insGL, N771_H773dupNPH, N771_P772insN, N771_P772insH, N771_P772insV,

Some embodiments of these methods further include administering to the subject another anticancer agent (e.g., a second EGFR inhibitor, a second compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or immunotherapy).
In some embodiments of any of the methods or uses described herein, an assay used to determine whether the subject has a dysregulation of an EGFR gene, or an EGFR kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, using a sample from a subject can include, for example, next generation sequencing, immunohistochemistry, fluorescence microscopy, break apart FISH analysis, Southern blotting, Western blotting, FACS analysis, Northern blotting, and PCR-based amplification (e.g., RT-PCR and quantitative real-time RT-PCR). As is well-known in the art, the assays are typically performed, e.g., with at least one labelled nucleic acid probe or at least one labelled antibody or antigenbinding fragment thereof. Assays can utilize other detection methods known in the art for detecting dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or expression or activity or levels of any of the same (see, e.g., the references cited herein). In some embodiments, the dysregulation of the EGFR gene, the EGFR kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same includes one or more EGFR inhibitor resistance mutations. In some embodiments, the sample is a biological sample or a biopsy sample (e.g., a paraffin- embedded biopsy sample) from the subject. In some embodiments, the subject is a subject suspected of having an EGFR-associated cancer, a subject having one or more symptoms of an EGFR-associated cancer, and/or a subject that has an increased risk of developing an EGFR-associated cancer).
In some embodiments, dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same can be identified using a liquid biopsy (variously referred to as a fluid biopsy or fluid phase biopsy). See, e.g., Karachialiou et al., “Real-time liquid biopsies become a reality in cancer treatment”, Ann. Transl. Med., 3 (3) :36, 2016. Liquid biopsy methods can be used to detect total tumor burden and/or the dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same. Liquid biopsies can be performed on biological samples obtained relatively easily from a subject (e.g., via a simple blood draw) and are generally less invasive than traditional methods used to detect tumor burden and/or dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same. In some embodiments, liquid biopsies can be used to detect the presence of dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same at an earlier stage than traditional methods. In some embodiments, the biological sample to be used in a liquid biopsy can include, blood, plasma, urine, cerebrospinal fluid, saliva, sputum, broncho-alveolar lavage, bile, lymphatic fluid, cyst fluid, stool, ascites, and combinations thereof. In some embodiments, a liquid biopsy can be used to detect circulating tumor cells (CTCs). In some embodiments, a liquid biopsy can be used to detect cell-free DNA. In some embodiments, cell-free DNA detected using a liquid biopsy is circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) that is derived from tumor cells. Analysis of ctDNA (e.g., using sensitive detection techniques such as, without limitation, next -generation sequencing (NGS), traditional PCR, digital PCR, or microarray analysis) can be used to identify dysregulation of an EGFR gene, an EGFR kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same.
The term "HER2-associated disease or disorder" as used herein refers to diseases or disorders associated with or having a dysregulation of a HER2 gene, a HER2 kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any (e.g., one or more) of the same (e.g., any of the types of dysregulation of a HER2 gene, a HER2 kinase, a HER2 kinase domain, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same described herein). Non-limiting examples of a HER2-associated disease or disorder include, for example, cancer.
The term “HER2-associated cancer” as used herein refers to cancers associated with or having a dysregulation of a HER2 gene, a HER2 kinase (also called herein a HER2 protein), or expression or activity, or level of any of the same. Non-limiting examples of a HER2-associated cancer are described herein.
In some embodiments, the EGFR-associated cancer is also a HER2-associated cancer. For example, an EGFR-associated cancer can also have a dysregulation of a HER2 gene, a HER2 kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same.
The phrase “dysregulation of a HER2 gene, a HER2 kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same” refers to a genetic mutation (e.g., a mutation in a HER2 gene that results in the expression of a HER2 protein that includes a deletion of at least one amino acid as compared to a wild type HER2 protein, a mutation in a HER2 gene that results in the expression of a HER2 protein with one or more point mutations as compared to a wild type HER2 protein, a mutation in a HER2 gene that results in the expression of a HER2 protein with at least one inserted amino acid as compared to a wild type HER2 protein, a gene duplication that results in an increased level of HER2 protein in a cell, or a mutation in a regulatory sequence (e.g., a promoter and/or enhancer) that results in an increased level of HER2 protein in a cell), an alternative spliced version of a HER2 mRNA that results in a HER2 protein having a deletion of at least one amino acid in the HER2 protein as compared to the wild-type HER2 protein), or increased expression (e.g., increased levels) of a wild type HER2 kinase in a mammalian cell due to aberrant cell signaling and/or dysregulated autocrine/paracrine signaling (e.g., as compared to a control non-cancerous cell). As another example, a dysregulation o a.HER2 gene, aHER2 protein, or expression or activity, or level of any of the same, can be a mutation in a HER2 gene that encodes a HER2 protein that is constitutively active or has increased activity as compared to a protein encoded by a HER2 gene that does not include the mutation. Nonlimiting examples of HER2 kinase protein fusions and point mutations/insertions/deletions are described in Tables 3-5. Such mutation and overexpression is associated with the development of a variety of cancers (Moasser. Oncogene. 2007 Oct 4; 26(45): 6469-6487).
Compounds of Formula (I) (e.g., Formula (I-a), (I-b), (I-c), (I-d), (I-e), (I-f), (I-g), or (I-gl)), or pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates thereof, are useful for treating diseases and disorders such as HER2-associated diseases and disorders, e.g., proliferative disorders such as cancers, including hematological cancers and solid tumors (e.g., advanced solid tumors).
In some embodiments, dysregulation of a HER2 gene, a HER2 kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same can be caused by an activating mutation in a HER2 gene. The exemplary HER2 kinase fusions or point mutations, insertions, and deletions shown in Tables 3-5 can be caused by an activating mutation.
The term “activating mutation” in reference to HER2 describes a mutation in a HER2 gene that results in the expression of a HER2 kinase that has an increased kinase activity, e.g., as compared to a wild type HER2 kinase, e.g., when assayed under identical conditions. For example, an activating mutation can be a mutation in a HER2 gene (that results in the expression of a HER2 kinase that has one or more (e.g., two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, or ten) amino acid substitutions (e.g., any combination of any of the amino acid substitutions described herein) that has increased kinase activity, e.g., as compared to a wild type HER2 kinase, e.g., when assayed under identical conditions. In another example, an activating mutation can be a mutation in a HER2 gene that results in the expression of a HER2 kinase that has one or more (e.g., two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, or ten) amino acids deleted, e.g., as compared to a wild type HER2 kinase, e.g., when assayed under identical conditions. In another example, an activating mutation can be a mutation in a HER2 gene that results in the expression of a HER2 kinase that has at least one (e.g., at least 2, at least 3, at least 4, at least 5, at least 6, at least 7, at least 8, at least 9, at least 10, at least 12, at least 14, at least 16, at least 18, or at least 20) amino acid inserted as compared to a wild type HER2 kinase, e.g., the exemplary wild type HER2 kinase described herein, e.g., when assayed under identical conditions. Additional examples of activating mutations are known in the art.
The term "wild type HER2" or "wild-type HER2 kinase" describes a HER2nucleic acid (e.g., a HER2 gene or a HER2 mRNA) or protein (e.g., a HER2 protein) that is found in a subject that does not have a HER2-associated disease, e.g., a HER2-associated cancer (and optionally also does not have an increased risk of developing a HER2-associated disease and/or is not suspected of having a HER2 -associated disease), or is found in a cell or tissue from a subject that does not have a HER2 -associated disease, e.g., a HER2- associated cancer (and optionally also does not have an increased risk of developing a HER2-associated disease and/or is not suspected of having a HER2 -associated disease).
Provided herein is a method of treating a HER2 -associated cancer (in a subject in need of such treatment, the method comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula (I) (e.g., Formula (I-a), (I-b), (I-c), (I-d), (I-e), (I-f), (I-g), or (I-gl)), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof or a pharmaceutical composition thereof. For example, provided herein are methods for treating a HER2-associated cancer in a subject in need of such treatment, the method comprising a) detecting a dysregulation of a HER2 gene, a HER2 kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same in a sample from the subject; and b) administering a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

In some embodiments, the dysregulation of a HER2 gene, a HER2 kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, includes a splice variation in a HER2 mRNA which results in an expressed protein that is an alternatively spliced variant of HER2 having at least one residue deleted (as compared to the wild-type HER2 kinase) resulting in a constitutive activity of a HER2 kinase domain. In some embodiments, the splice variant of HER2 is A16HER-3 or p95HER-2. See, e.g., Sun et al. J Cell Mol Med. 2015 Dec; 19(12): 2691-2701.
In some embodiments, dysregulation of an HER2 gene, an HER2 kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same can be caused by a splice variation in a HER2 mRNA that results in the expression of an altered HER2 protein that has increased resistance to inhibition by an HER2 inhibitor, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), and/or a multi-kinase inhibitor (MKI), e.g., as compared to a wild type HER2 kinase (e.g., the HER2 variants described herein). See, e.g., Rexer and Arteaga. Crit Rev Oncog. 2012; 17(1): 1- 16.
In some embodiments, the dysregulation of a HER2 gene, a HER2 kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, includes one or more chromosome translocations or inversions resulting in HER2 gene fusions, respectively. In some embodiments, the dysregulation of a HER2 gene, a HER2 kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, is a result of genetic translocations in which the expressed protein is a fusion protein containing residues from a non-HER2 partner protein and HER2, and include a minimum of a functional HER2 kinase domain, respectively.

In some embodiments, dysregulation of an HER2 gene, an HER2 kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, includes at least one HER2 inhibitor resistance mutation in an HER2 gene that results in the production of an HER2 kinase that has one or more of the amino acid substitutions, insertions, or deletions as described in Table 5. In some embodiments, compounds of Formula (I) (e.g., Formula (I-a), (I-b), (I- c), (I-d), (I-e), (I-f), (I-g), or (I-gl)) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts and solvates thereof are useful in treating subjects that develop cancers with HER2 inhibitor resistance mutations (e.g., that result in an increased resistance to a first HER2 inhibitor, e.g., a substitution at amino acid position 755 or 798 (e.g., L755S, L755P, T798I, and T798M), and/or one or more HER2 inhibitor resistance mutations listed in Table 5) by either dosing in combination or as a subsequent or additional (e.g., follow-up) therapy to existing drug treatments (e.g., other inhibitors of HER2; e.g., first and/or second HER2 inhibitors).

2 Sun et al. J Cell Mol Med. 2015 Dec; 19(12): 2691-2701. As used herein, a “first inhibitor of HER2” or “first HER2 inhibitor” is a HER2 inhibitor as defined herein, but which does not include a compound of Formula (I) (e.g., Formula (I-a), (I-b), (I-c), (I-d), (I-e), (I-f), (I-g), or (I-gl)), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as defined herein. As used herein, a “second inhibitor of HER2” or a “second HER2 inhibitor” is a HER2 inhibitor as defined herein, but which does not include a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as defined herein. When both a first and a second inhibitor of HER2 are present in a method provided herein, the first and second inhibitors of HER2 are different. In some embodiments, the first and/or second inhibitor of HER2 bind in a different location than a compound of Formula (I). For example, in some embodiments, a first and/or second inhibitor of HER2 can inhibit dimerization of HER2, while a compound of Formula (I) can inhibit the active site. In some embodiments, a first and/or second inhibitor of HER2 can be an allosteric inhibitor of HER2, while a compound of Formula (I) can inhibit the HER2 active site.
Exemplary first and second inhibitors of HER2 are described herein. In some embodiments, a first or second inhibitor of HER2 can be selected from the group consisting of trastuzumab (e.g., TRAZIMERA™, HERCEPTIN®), pertuzumab (e.g., PERJETA®), trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1 or ado-trastuzumab emtansine, e.g., KADCYLA®), lapatinib, KU004, neratinib (e.g., NERLYNX®), dacomitinib (e.g., VIZIMPRO®), afatinib (GILOTRIF®), tucatinib (e.g., TUKYSA™), erlotinib (e.g., TARCEVA®), pyrotinib, poziotinib, CP-724714, CUDC-101, sapitinib (AZD8931), tanespimycin (17- AAG), IPI-504, PF299, pelitinib, S- 22261 1, and AEE-788.
In some embodiments, compounds of Formula (I) (e.g., Formula (I-a), (I-b), (I-c), (I-d), (I-e), (I-f), (I-g), or (I-gl)), or pharmaceutically acceptable salts and solvates thereof are useful for treating a cancer that has been identified as having one or more HER2 inhibitor resistance mutations (that result in an increased resistance to a first or second inhibitor of HER2, e.g., a substitution described in Table 5 including substitutions at amino acid position 755 or 798 (e.g., L755S, L755P, T798I, and T798M)). In some embodiments, the one or more HER2 inhibitor resistance mutations occurs in a nucleic acid sequence encoding a mutant HER2 protein (e.g., a mutant HER2 protein having any of the mutations described in Table 3) resulting in a mutant HER2 protein that exhibits HER2 inhibitor resistance.
Like EGFR, the epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) belongs to the ErbB family of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) and provides critical functions in epithelial cell physiology (Schlessinger J (2014) Cold Spring Harb Per sped Biol 6, a008912; and Moasser. Oncogene. 2007 Oct 4; 26(45): 6469-6487). It is frequently mutated and/or overexpressed in different types of human cancers and is the target of multiple cancer therapies currently adopted in the clinical practice (Moasser. Oncogene. 2007 Oct 4; 26(45): 6469-6487).

Some embodiments of these methods further include administering to the subject another anticancer agent (e.g., a second HER2 inhibitor, a second compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or immunotherapy).
In some embodiments of any of the methods or uses described herein, an assay used to determine whether the subject has a dysregulation of a HER2 gene, a HER2 kinase, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, using a sample from a subject can include, for example, next generation sequencing, immunohistochemistry, fluorescence microscopy, break apart FISH analysis, Southern blotting, Western blotting, FACS analysis, Northern blotting, and PCR-based amplification (e.g., RT-PCR and quantitative real-time RT-PCR). As is well-known in the art, the assays are typically performed, e.g., with at least one labelled nucleic acid probe or at least one labelled antibody or antigenbinding fragment thereof. Assays can utilize other detection methods known in the art for detecting dysregulation o a.HER2 gene, a HER2 kinase, or expression or activity or levels of any of the same (see, e.g., the references cited herein). In some embodiments, the sample is a biological sample or a biopsy sample (e.g., a paraffin-embedded biopsy sample) from the subject. In some embodiments, the subject is a subject suspected of having a HER2- associated cancer, a subject having one or more symptoms of a HER2-associated cancer, and/or a subject that has an increased risk of developing a HER2 -associated cancer.
In some embodiments, dysregulation of a HER2 gene, a HER2 kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same can be identified using a liquid biopsy (variously referred to as a fluid biopsy or fluid phase biopsy). See, e.g., Karachialiou et al., “Real-time liquid biopsies become a reality in cancer treatment”, Ann. Transl. Med., 3 (3) :36, 2016. Liquid biopsy methods can be used to detect total tumor burden and/or the dysregulation of a HER2 gene, a HER2 kinasev, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same. Liquid biopsies can be performed on biological samples obtained relatively easily from a subject (e.g., via a simple blood draw) and are generally less invasive than traditional methods used to detect tumor burden and/or dysregulation of a HER2 gene, a HER2 kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same. In some embodiments, liquid biopsies can be used to detect the presence of dysregulation of a HER2 gene, a HER2 kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same at an earlier stage than traditional methods. In some embodiments, the biological sample to be used in a liquid biopsy can include, blood, plasma, urine, cerebrospinal fluid, saliva, sputum, broncho-alveolar lavage, bile, lymphatic fluid, cyst fluid, stool, ascites, and combinations thereof. In some embodiments, a liquid biopsy can be used to detect circulating tumor cells (CTCs). In some embodiments, a liquid biopsy can be used to detect cell-free DNA. In some embodiments, cell-free DNA detected using a liquid biopsy is circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) that is derived from tumor cells. Analysis of ctDNA (e.g., using sensitive detection techniques such as, without limitation, next -generation sequencing (NGS), traditional PCR, digital PCR, or microarray analysis) can be used to identify dysregulation of a HER2 gene, a HER2 kinase, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same.

Combinations
In the field of medical oncology it is normal practice to use a combination of different forms of treatment to treat each subject with cancer. In medical oncology the other component(s) of such conjoint treatment or therapy in addition to compositions provided herein may be, for example, surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapeutic agents, such as other kinase inhibitors, signal transduction inhibitors and/or monoclonal antibodies. For example, a surgery may be open surgery or minimally invasive surgery. Compounds of Formula (I) (e.g., Formula (I-a), (I-b), (I-c), (I-d), (I-e), (I-f), (I-g), or (I-gl)), or pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates thereof therefore may also be useful as adjuvants to cancer treatment, that is, they can be used in combination with one or more additional therapies or therapeutic agents, for example, a chemotherapeutic agent that works by the same or by a different mechanism of action. In some embodiments, a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, can be used prior to administration of an additional therapeutic agent or additional therapy. For example, a subject in need thereof can be administered one or more doses of a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof for a period of time and then undergo at least partial resection of the tumor. In some embodiments, the treatment with one or more doses of a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof reduces the size of the tumor (e.g., the tumor burden) prior to the at least partial resection of the tumor. In some embodiments, a subject in need thereof can be administered one or more doses of a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof for a period of time and under one or more rounds of radiation therapy. In some embodiments, the treatment with one or more doses of a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof reduces the size of the tumor (e.g., the tumor burden) prior to the one or more rounds of radiation therapy.
In some embodiments, a subject has a cancer (e.g., a locally advanced or metastatic tumor) that is refractory or intolerant to standard therapy (e.g., administration of a chemotherapeutic agent, such as a first EGFR inhibitor, a first HER2 inhibitor, or a multikinase inhibitor, immunotherapy, or radiation (e.g., radioactive iodine)). In some embodiments, a subject has a cancer (e.g., a locally advanced or metastatic tumor) that is refractory or intolerant to prior therapy (e.g., administration of a chemotherapeutic agent, such as a first EGFR inhibitor, a first HER2 inhibitor, or a multi-kinase inhibitor, immunotherapy, or radiation (e.g., radioactive iodine)). In some embodiments, a subject has a cancer (e.g., a locally advanced or metastatic tumor) that has no standard therapy. In some embodiments, a subject is EGFR inhibitor naive. For example, the subject is naive to treatment with a selective EGFR inhibitor. In some embodiments, a subject is not EGFR inhibitor naive. In some embodiments, a subject is HER2 inhibitor naive. For example, the subject is naive to treatment with a selective HER2 inhibitor. In some embodiments, a subject is not HER2 inhibitor naive. In some embodiments, a subject has undergone prior therapy. For example, treatment with a multi-kinase inhibitor (MKI), an EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), osimertinib, gefitinib, erlotinib, afatinib, lapatinib, neratinib, AZD- 9291, CL-387785, CO-1686, or WZ4002.
In some embodiments of any the methods described herein, the compound of Formula (I) (e.g., Formula (I-a), (I-b), (I-c), (I-d), (I-e), (I-f), (I-g), or (I-gl)) (or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof) is administered in combination with a therapeutically effective amount of at least one additional therapeutic agent selected from one or more additional therapies or therapeutic (e.g., chemotherapeutic) agents.
Non-limiting examples of additional therapeutic agents include: other EGFR- targeted therapeutic agents (i.e., a first or second EGFR inhibitor), other HER2 -targeted therapeutic agents (i.e., a first or second HER2 inhibitor), RAS pathway targeted therapeutic agents, PARP inhibitors, other kinase inhibitors (e.g., receptor tyrosine kinase- targeted therapeutic agents (e.g., Trk inhibitors or multi-kinase inhibitors)), farnesyl transferase inhibitors, signal transduction pathway inhibitors, checkpoint inhibitors, modulators of the apoptosis pathway (e.g., obataclax); cytotoxic chemotherapeutics, angiogenesis-targeted therapies, immune-targeted agents, including immunotherapy, and radiotherapy.
In some embodiments, the other EGFR-targeted therapeutic is a multi-kinase inhibitor exhibiting EGFR inhibition activity. In some embodiments, the other EGFR- targeted therapeutic inhibitor is selective for an EGFR kinase.
