Abstract

Provided herein is a combination therapy and methods of using such combination therapy as a neoadjuvant therapy and/or an adjuvant therapy in uveal melanoma, inter alia to reduce the risk of metastasis and/or enucleation, and/or preserving eye function. Uveal melanoma (UM) is the most common primary intraocular malignant tumor in adults. The protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor, sotrastaurin, has been shown to have activity against certain PKC isototypes and has been shown to selectively inhibit the growth of uveal melanoma cells harboring GNAQ mutations by targeting PKC/ERK1/2 and PKC/NF-xB pathways.

No.: 745662: 086087-020PC // 2022-009-E-PCT METHODS OF TREATING UVEAL MELANOMA RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No.63/373,687, filed on August 26, 2022; U.S. Provisional Application No.63/375,155, filed on September 9, 2022; U.S. Provisional Application No.63/386,858, filed on December 9, 2022; and U.S. Provisional Application No.63/497,363, filed on April 20, 2023. The content of each application is incorporated by reference in their entirety. BACKGROUND Uveal melanoma (UM) is the most common primary intraocular malignant tumor in adults. One protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor, sotrastaurin, has been shown to have activity against certain PKC isototypes and has been shown to selectively inhibit the growth of uveal melanoma cells harboring GNAQ mutations by targeting PKC/ERK1/2 and PKC/NF-xB pathways (see X. Wu, et al., Mol. Cancer Ther., Vol.11, pages 1905-1914, 2012). There still remains an unmet need to provide next generation PKC inhibitors for treating uveal melanoma that have improved efficacy at lower dosage amounts to achieve tumor regression, improved potency, hERG activity, absorption, gastrointestinal tolerance and kinase selectivity. PCT application no. PCT/IB2015/055951 (WO 2016/020864) discloses a number of potent and selective PKC inhibitors. The c-MET receptor has been shown to be expressed in a number of human cancers. c-Met and its ligand, HGF, have also been shown to be co-expressed at elevated levels in a variety of human cancers (particularly sarcomas). However, because the receptor and ligand are usually expressed by different cell types, c-MET signaling is most commonly regulated by tumor-stroma (tumor-host) interactions. Furthermore, c-MET gene amplification, mutation, and rearrangement have been observed in a subset of human cancers. Families with germline mutations that activate c-MET kinase are prone to multiple kidney tumors as well as tumors in other tissues. Numerous studies have correlated the expression of c-MET and/or HGF/SF with the state of disease progression of different types of cancer (including lung, colon, breast, prostate, liver, pancreas, brain, kidney, ovaries, stomach, skin, and bone cancers). Furthermore, the overexpression of c-MET or HGF have been shown to correlate with poor prognosis and disease outcome in a number of major human cancers including lung, liver, gastric, and breast. c-MET has also been directly implicated in cancers without a successful treatment regimen such as pancreatic cancer, glioma, and hepatocellular carcinoma. PCT application no. PCT application no. PCT/IB2005/002837 (WO 2006/021884) discloses a number of potent and selective c-MET inhibitors. PCT application no. PCT/IB2015/055951 (WO Attorney Ref. No.: 745662: 086087-020PC // 2022-009-E-PCT 2016/020864) discloses a number of potent and selective PKC inhibitors. Provided herein is a tyrosine-kinase targeted therapy combination to address some of the issues discussed herein. SUMMARY Provided herein is a neoadjuvant therapy comprising administering a PKC inhibitor and a c-MET inhibitor. Also provided herein is a primary therapy for treatment of uveal melanoma comprising administering a PKC inhibitor and a c-MET inhibitor. The neoadjuvant therapy and the primary therapy are, in each case, useful for the treatment of uveal melanoma, including ocular tumors. In one aspect, the ocular tumors are intraocular tumors. In another aspect, a PKC inhibitor and a c-MET inhibitor is also useful as an adjuvant therapy. A neoadjuvant therapy can be administered in advance of or during an interventional procedure, which can be a primary interventional procedure. An adjuvant therapy can be used during or after an interventional procedure, which can be a primary interventional procedure. In each such case, a (primary) interventional procedure can include, for example, irradiation of the ocular tumor or surgical intervention (e.g., resection or removal) of the ocular tumor. Thus, in one aspect, provided herein is a method of treating uveal melanoma in a patient having an ocular tumor, the method comprising a) administering a PKC inhibitor and administering a c-MET inhibitor to the patient as a neoadjuvant therapy; b) reducing the size of the ocular tumor by at least 10%; and c) treating the reduced-size ocular tumor with an interventional procedure. In another aspect, provided herein is a method of treating a patient having uveal melanoma with an ocular tumor with a size indicated for an interventional procedure comprising irradiating the ocular tumor, the method comprising a) administering a PKC inhibitor and administering a c-MET inhibitor to the patient as a neoadjuvant therapy; b) reducing the size of the ocular tumor by at least 10%; and c) treating the reduced-size ocular tumor with an interventional procedure other than enucleation, including for example with an interventional procedure comprising irradiation. In another aspect, provided herein is a method of treating a patient having uveal melanoma with an ocular tumor with a size indicated for an interventional procedure comprising enucleation of the eye which is the situs of the ocular tumor, the method comprising a) administering a PKC inhibitor and administering a c-MET inhibitor to the patient as a neoadjuvant therapy; b) reducing the size of the ocular tumor by at least 10%; and c) treating the reduced-size ocular tumor with an interventional procedure other than enucleation. Attorney Ref. No.: 745662: 086087-020PC // 2022-009-E-PCT In each of these such aforementioned aspects of the invention, the method of treatment can comprise administering a PKC inhibitor and administering a c-MET inhibitor to the patient as a neoadjuvant therapy whereby the size of the ocular tumor by at least 10%. In various other aspects, as described in more detail below, the method of treatment of uveal melanoma can comprise administering a PKC inhibitor and administering a c-MET inhibitor to the patient as a neoadjuvant therapy to reduce the size of an ocular tumor to enable an alternative treatment paradigm. For example, and without limitation except as explicitly claimed, neoadjuvant treatment with a PKC inhibitor and a c-MET inhibitor can reduce a large size ocular tumor to either a medium size ocular tumor or a small size ocular tumor, to enable an interventional procedure other than enucleation (e.g. for a medium size ocular tumor) or to enable an observational period (e.g., for a small size ocular tumor) prior to or in lieu of an interventional procedure. As another example, and without limitation except as explicitly claimed, neoadjuvant treatment with a PKC inhibitor and a c-MET inhibitor can reduce a medium size ocular tumor to be a small size ocular tumor, to enable an interventional procedure other than enucleation, such as an alternative radiotherapy approach than otherwise would have been applicable for the original medium size ocular tumor or to enable an to enable an observational period prior to or in lieu of an interventional procedure. In each of such aspects of the invention, an ocular tumor size can be defined by a set of dimensions known in the art. Such dimensions can include for example, a basal diameter, typically measured a longest basal diameter (LBD) of the ocular tumor and/or an apical height. Another feature of an ocular tumor that can impact selection of an interventional procedure is the relative proximity of the location or situs of the ocular tumor to the ocular nerve. Accordingly, various such aspects of the invention are described herein, including in connection with certain such dimensions as defined by guidelines issued by regulatory agencies or other governmental or private authoritative bodies, such as the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) Guidelines Version 2.2022 (Uveal Melanoma), National Cancer Institute (NCI) clinical practice guidelines, among others known in the art, and /or by standard of care practices developed by ocular oncologists or ocular surgeons informed of such guidelines and practicing in the field of treating uveal melanoma. In another aspect, provided herein is a method of treating uveal melanoma in a patient having an ocular tumor with a size defined by a set of dimensions comprising (i) greater than 16 mm LBD and any apical height; (ii) any LBD and greater than 8 mm apical height; or (iii) less than 16 mm LBD and 3-8 mm apical height, the method comprising a) administering a PKC inhibitor and administering a c-MET inhibitor to the patient as a neoadjuvant therapy; b) reducing the size of the ocular tumor to dimensions of less than 5 mm LBD and less than 3 mm apical height; and optionally c) treating the reduced-size ocular Attorney Ref. No.: 745662: 086087-020PC // 2022-009-E-PCT tumor with an interventional procedure. Without limitation except as explicitly claimed, such aspect can reflect reducing a large size ocular tumor, e.g., with dimensions as defined as in (i) or (ii), or a medium size tumor, e.g., with dimensions as defined as in (iii), in each case to a small size ocular tumor. Such a small size ocular tumor may be monitored during an observational period prior to or in lieu of an interventional procedure. In yet another aspect, provided herein is a method of treating uveal melanoma in a patient having an ocular tumor with a size defined by a set of dimensions comprising (i) greater than 16 mm LBD and any apical height, or (ii) any LBD and greater than 8 mm apical height, the method comprising a) administering a PKC inhibitor and administering a c-MET inhibitor to the patient as a neoadjuvant therapy; b) reducing the size of the ocular tumor to dimensions of less than 16 mm LBD and less than 8 mm apical height; and optionally c) treating the reduced-size ocular tumor with an interventional procedure. Without limitation except as explicitly claimed, such aspect can reflect reducing a large size ocular tumor, e.g., with dimensions as defined as in (i) or (ii), in each case to a medium size ocular tumor or a small size ocular tumor. In the immediately preceding aspect, for example, for a patient having an ocular tumor with a size defined by a set of dimensions comprising (i) greater than 16 mm LBD and any apical height or (ii) any LBD and greater than 8 mm apical height, the method of treating uveal melanoma can comprise a) administering a PKC inhibitor and a c-MET inhibitor to the patient as a neoadjuvant therapy; b) reducing the size of the ocular tumor to dimensions of less than 16 mm LBD and 3-8 mm apical height; and c) treating the reduced-size ocular tumor with an interventional procedure. Without limitation except as explicitly claimed, this example can reflect reducing a large size ocular tumor, e.g., with dimensions as defined as in (i) or (ii), in each case to a medium size ocular tumor. In still another aspect, provided herein is a method of treating uveal melanoma in a patient having an ocular tumor with a size defined by a set of dimensions comprising (i) greater than 19 mm LBD and any apical height, (ii) any LBD and greater than 10 mm apical height, (iii) any LBD, greater than 8 mm apical height, and the ocular tumor is located close to, including proximal to or adjacent, the optic nerve, or (iv) less than or equal to 19 mm LBD and 2.5-10 mm apical height, the method comprising a) administering a PKC inhibitor and a c-MET inhibitor as a neoadjuvant therapy; b) reducing the size of the ocular tumor to dimensions of 5-19 mm LBD or less than 2.5 mm apical height; and c) treating the reduced- size ocular tumor with an interventional procedure. Preferably, step (b) of this aspect comprises (b) reducing the size of the ocular tumor to dimensions of 5-19 mm LBD and less than 2.5 mm apical height. Without limitation except as explicitly claimed, this example can reflect reducing a large size ocular tumor, e.g., with dimensions as defined as in (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv), in each case to a medium size ocular tumor or a small size ocular tumor. Attorney Ref. No.: 745662: 086087-020PC // 2022-009-E-PCT In an aspect, provided herein is a method of treating uveal melanoma in a patient having an ocular tumor with a size defined by a set of dimensions comprising (i) greater than 19 mm LBD and any apical height, (ii) any LBD and greater than 10 mm apical height, or (iii) greater than 8 mm apical height, any LBD, and the ocular tumor is located close to, including proximal to or adjacent, the optic nerve, the method comprising a) administering a PKC inhibitor and administering a c-MET inhibitor to the patient as a neoadjuvant therapy; b) reducing the size of the ocular tumor to dimensions of less than or equal to 19 mm LBD and 2.5-10 mm apical height; and c) treating the reduced-size ocular tumor with an interventional procedure. Without limitation except as explicitly claimed, this example can reflect reducing a large size ocular tumor, e.g., with dimensions as defined as in (i), (ii), (iii), in each case to a medium size ocular tumor or a small size ocular tumor.

It should be noted that ratios, concentrations, amounts, and other numerical data may be expressed herein in a range format. It is to be understood that such a range format is used for convenience and brevity, and thus, should be interpreted in a flexible manner to include not only the numerical values explicitly recited as the limits of the range, but also to include all the individual numerical values or sub-ranges encompassed within that range as if each numerical value and sub-range is explicitly recited. To illustrate, a dose range of “200 mg to about 600 mg” should be interpreted to include not only the explicitly recited Attorney Ref. No.: 745662: 086087-020PC // 2022-009-E-PCT concentration of about 200 mg to about 600 mg, but also include individual dosage (e.g., 250 mg, 400 mg, 550 mg) and the sub-ranges (e.g., 250 mg to 450 mg) within the indicated range. To further illustrate, a tumor size reduction of “30%-50%” should be interpreted to include not only the explicitly recited concentration of about 30% to about 50%, but also include individual percentages (e.g., 35%, 40%, 50%) and the sub-ranges (e.g., 35%-45%) within the indicated range. The term “about” can include ±1%, ±2%, ±3%, ±4%, ±5%, ±6%, ±7%, ±8%, ±9%, or ±10%, of the numerical value(s) being modified. In addition, the phrase “about ‘x’ to ‘y’” includes “about ‘x’ to about ‘y’”. The terms “combination,” “therapeutic combination,” “pharmaceutical combination,” or “combination product” as used herein refer to either a fixed combination in one dosage unit form, or non-fixed combination in separate dosage forms, or a kit of parts for the combined administration where two or more therapeutic agents may be administered independently, at the same time or separately within time intervals. As used herein, the term “non-fixed combination” means that the active ingredients, e.g., Compound 1 and Compound 2, are both administered to a patient as separate entities either simultaneously, concurrently or sequentially, wherein such administration provides therapeutically effective levels of the two compounds in the body of the patient. The term “combination therapy” refers to the administration of two or more therapeutic agents to treat a therapeutic condition or disorder described in the present disclosure. Such administration encompasses co-administration of these therapeutic agents in a substantially simultaneous manner, such as in a single formulation having a fixed ratio of active ingredients or in separate formulations (i.e., in separate dosage units, for example, separate tablets, capsules and/or intravenous formulations) for each active ingredient. In addition, such administration also encompasses use of each type of therapeutic agent in a sequential or separate manner, either at approximately the same time or at different times. Regardless of whether the active ingredients are administered as a single formulation or in separate formulations, the agents are administered to the same patient as part of the same course of therapy. The agents may be administered at the same point in time or immediately following one another. The agents may be administered at any order. The agents may be administered separately at different times during the course of therapy in such time intervals that the combination therapy is effective in treating cancer. In any case, the treatment regimen will provide beneficial effects in treating the conditions or disorders described herein. As used herein, the term “free base equivalent” refers to the amount of the active agent (e.g., Compound 1 or Compound 2) present in the active agent or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Stated alternatively, the term “free base equivalent” means either an Attorney Ref. No.: 745662: 086087-020PC // 2022-009-E-PCT amount of Compound 1 or Compound 2 free base, or the equivalent amount of Compound 1 or Compound 2 free base that is provided by a salt of said compound. As used herein, “metastasis” or “metastatic” is meant the spread of cancer from its primary site to other places in the body. Cancer cells can break away from a primary tumor, penetrate into lymphatic and blood vessels, circulate through the bloodstream, and grow in a distant focus (metastasize) in normal tissues elsewhere in the body. Metastasis can be local or distant. Metastasis is a sequential process, contingent on tumor cells breaking off from the primary tumor, traveling through the bloodstream, and stopping at a distant site. At the new site, the cells establish a blood supply and can grow to form a life-threatening mass. Both stimulatory and inhibitory molecular pathways within the tumor cell regulate this behavior, and interactions between the tumor cell and host cells in the distant site are also significant. As used herein, the term “treating” or “treatment” refers to inhibiting a disease; for example, inhibiting a disease, condition, or disorder in an individual who is experiencing or displaying the pathology or symptomology of the disease, condition, or disorder (i.e., arresting further development of the pathology and/or symptomology) or ameliorating the disease; for example, ameliorating a disease, condition, or disorder in an individual who is experiencing or displaying the pathology or symptomology of the disease, condition, or disorder (i.e., reversing the pathology and/or symptomology) such as decreasing the severity of the disease. As used herein, the term “prevent” or “prevention” means no disorder or disease development if none had occurred, or no further disorder or disease development if there had already been development of the disorder or disease. Also considered is the ability of one to prevent some or all of the symptoms associated with the disorder or disease. As used herein, the term “patient,” “individual,” or “subject” refers to a human or a non-human mammal. Non-human mammals include, for example, livestock and pets, such as ovine, bovine, porcine, canine, feline and marine mammals. Preferably, the patient, subject, or individual is human. As used herein, the term “First-Line MUM patients” refers to patients that were not given prior systemic treatment in the metastatic setting including no prior chemo- embolization, no radiation to the metastatic sites or ablation to the liver lesions. As used herein, the terms “effective amount,” “pharmaceutically effective amount,” and “therapeutically effective amount” refer to a nontoxic but sufficient amount of an agent to provide the desired biological result. That result may be reduction or alleviation of the signs, symptoms, or causes of a disease, or any other desired alteration of a biological system. An appropriate therapeutic amount in any individual case may be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art using routine experimentation. Attorney Ref. No.: 745662: 086087-020PC // 2022-009-E-PCT As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable” refers to a material, such as a carrier or diluent, which does not abrogate the biological activity or properties of the compound, and is relatively non-toxic, i.e., the material may be administered to an individual without causing undesirable biological effects or interacting in a deleterious manner with any of the components of the composition in which it is contained. As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to derivatives of the disclosed compounds wherein a parent compound is modified by converting an existing acid or base moiety to its salt form. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, but are not limited to, mineral or organic acid salts of basic residues such as amines; alkali or organic salts of acidic residues such as carboxylic acids; and the like. The pharmaceutically acceptable salts described herein include the conventional non-toxic salts of the parent compound formed, for example, from non-toxic inorganic or organic acids. The pharmaceutically acceptable salts discussed herein can be synthesized from the parent compound which contains a basic or acidic moiety by conventional chemical methods. Generally, such salts can be prepared by reacting the free acid or base forms of these compounds with a stoichiometric amount of the appropriate base or acid in water or in an organic solvent, or in a mixture of the two; generally, nonaqueous media like ether, ethyl acetate, ethanol, isopropanol, or acetonitrile are used. The phrase “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” is not limited to a mono, or 1:1, salt. For example, “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” also includes bis-salts, such as a bis-hydrochloride salt. Lists of suitable salts are found in Remington’s Pharmaceutical Sciences, 17th ed., Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pa., 1985, p.1418 and Journal of Pharmaceutical Science, 66, 2 (1977), each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. As used herein, the term “composition” or “pharmaceutical composition” refers to a mixture of at least one compound with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The pharmaceutical composition facilitates administration of the composition to a patient or subject. Multiple techniques of administering a compound exist in the art including, but not limited to, intravenous, oral, aerosol, parenteral, ophthalmic, pulmonary, and topical administration. As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” means a pharmaceutically acceptable material, composition or carrier, such as a liquid or solid filler, stabilizer, dispersing agent, suspending agent, diluent, excipient, thickening agent, solvent or encapsulating material, involved in carrying or transporting a compound useful to the patient such that it may perform its intended function. Typically, such constructs are carried or transported from one organ, or portion of the body, to another organ, or portion of the body. Each carrier must be “acceptable” in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation, including the compound disclosed herein, and not injurious to Attorney Ref. No.: 745662: 086087-020PC // 2022-009-E-PCT the patient. Some examples of materials that may serve as pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include: sugars, such as lactose, glucose and sucrose; starches, such as corn starch and potato starch; cellulose, and its derivatives, such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose and cellulose acetate; powdered tragacanth; malt; gelatin; talc; excipients, such as cocoa butter and suppository waxes; oils, such as peanut oil, cottonseed oil, safflower oil, sesame oil, olive oil, corn oil and soybean oil; glycols, such as propylene glycol; polyols, such as glycerin, sorbitol, mannitol and polyethylene glycol; esters, such as ethyl oleate and ethyl laurate; agar; buffering agents, such as magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide; surface active agents; alginic acid; pyrogen-free water; isotonic saline; Ringer’s solution; ethyl alcohol; phosphate buffer solutions; and other non-toxic compatible substances employed in pharmaceutical formulations. As used herein, “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” also includes any and all coatings, antibacterial and antifungal agents, and absorption delaying agents, and the like that are compatible with the activity of a compound disclosed herein, and are physiologically acceptable to the patient. Supplementary active compounds may also be incorporated into the compositions. The “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” may further include a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the compound(s) disclosed herein. Other additional ingredients that may be included in the pharmaceutical compositions are known in the art and described, for example, in Remington’s Pharmaceutical Sciences (Genaro, Ed., Mack Publishing Co., 1985, Easton, PA), which is incorporated herein by reference. The term “single formulation” as used herein refers to a single carrier or vehicle formulated to deliver effective amounts of both therapeutic agents to a patient. The single vehicle is designed to deliver an effective amount of each of the agents, along with any pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or excipients. In some embodiments, the vehicle is a tablet, capsule, pill, or a patch. In other embodiments, the vehicle is a solution or a suspension. The term “unit dose” is used herein to mean simultaneous administration of both agents together, in one dosage form, to the patient being treated. In some embodiments, the unit dose is a single formulation. The term “a unit dose,” as used herein can also refer to the simultaneous administration of both agents separately, in two dosage forms, to the patient being treated. In certain embodiments, the unit dose includes one or more vehicles such that each vehicle includes an effective amount of at least one of the agents along with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers and excipients. In some embodiments, the unit dose is one or more tablets, capsules, pills, or patches administered to the patient at the same time. The dose amounts (for Compound 1 and Compound 2) are expressed as free base equivalent amounts, unless indicated otherwise. Attorney Ref. No.: 745662: 086087-020PC // 2022-009-E-PCT The combination of agents described herein may display a synergistic effect. See, for example, Wagle, M-C., et al., Preclinical evaluation of PKC and MET inhibitor combination in primary and metastatic uveal melanoma, AACR Meeting 2021, the entire content of which is hereby incorporated by reference. The term “synergistic effect” as used herein, refers to action of two agents such as, for example, Compound 1 and Compound 2, producing an effect, for example, slowing the symptomatic progression of cancer or symptoms thereof, which is greater than the simple addition of the effects of each drug administered by themselves. A synergistic effect can be calculated, for example, using suitable methods such as the Sigmoid-Emax equation (Holford, N. H. G. and Scheiner, L. B., Clin. Pharmacokinet. 6: 429-453 (1981)), the equation of Loewe additivity (Loewe, S. and Muischnek, H., Arch. Exp. Pathol Pharmacol.114: 313-326 (1926)) and the median-effect equation (Chou, T. C. and Talalay, P., Adv. Enzyme Regul.22: 27-55 (1984)). Each equation referred to above can be applied to experimental data to generate a corresponding graph to aid in assessing the effects of the drug combination. The corresponding graphs associated with the equations referred to above are the concentration-effect curve, isobologram curve and combination index curve, respectively. As used herein, the term “synergy” refers to the effect achieved when the active ingredients, i.e., Compound 1 and Compound 2, used together is greater than the sum of the effects that results from using the compounds separately. In an embodiment, provided herein is a combination therapy comprising an effective amount of Compound 1 and Compound 2. An “effective amount” of a combination of agents (i.e., Compound 1 and Compound 2) is an amount sufficient to provide an observable improvement over the baseline clinically observable signs and symptoms of the disorders treated with the combination. An “oral dosage form” includes a unit dosage form prescribed or intended for oral administration.

Compound 1 and Compound 2 Partial Responses in the Uvea A first-line MUM patient (NCT03947385) also having uveal melanoma (intact primary ocular tumor) received Compound 1 (300 mg BID) and Compound 2 (200 mg BID) for about eleven months. Approximately 10 months after receiving treatment of (Compound 1 (300 mg BID) and Compound 2 (200 mg BID)), the patient’s ocular tumor is scored as absent by RECIST 1.1, and with an observed 81% reduction of apical tumor height by ultrasound relative to baseline (prior to starting therapy). Visual symptoms were also resolved with treatment. A MUM patient (Patient 2) with an intact primary lesion (intact ocular tumor which had received radiotherapy treatment prior to entering the study) received Compound 1 (300 mg BID) and Compound 2 (200 mg BID) for eleven months and 2 weeks. A pre-study baseline scan was performed 5 months before the patient received the combination. The patient received 7 months of treatment with the combination and a reduction in the apical height of 14.8% and 16.6% largest basal diameter of the ocular lesion was observed based on scan. A UM patient (Patient 3) with an intact primary lesion (intact ocular tumor) received Compound 1 (300 mg BID) and Compound 2 (200 mg BID). The patient received 4 months of treatment with the combination and a reduction in the apical height of 79% of the ocular lesion was observed based on scan. The patient remained on treatment for additional 2 months with the combination and a reduction in the apical height of 84% and 22% reduction in the largest basal diameter of the ocular lesion was observed based on scan (B-scan ultrasonography). All ocular lesion reduction measurements were based on baseline ocular lesion, which is the ocular tumor measurements before any treatment with Compound 1 and/or Compound 2. The patient was referred for enucleation before entering the study and through treatment with the combination enucleation was avoided and the eye was preserved. The patient had a pre-treatment score of 6/120 (6/60 = legally blind) and post- Attorney Ref. No.: 745662: 086087-020PC // 2022-009-E-PCT treatment vision score of 6/5 after replacement of an intraocular lens for a cataract. After replacement of intraocular lens, the patient was treated with Ruthenium plaque brachytherapy, which was planned with Plaque Simulator (version 6.9.2, Eye Physics, LLC, Los Alamitos, CA, USA) using a 20 mm round CCB plaque (Eckert & Ziegler BEBIG GmbH, Berlin, Germany). The plaque delivered 350 Gy to the outer sclera, resulting in a tumour apex dose of 141.41 Gy, a macula dose of 4.55 Gy and an optic disc dose of 14.51. One week after plaque placement, the patient’s eye visual acuity was 6/9. The patient continues on adjuvant therapy of Compound 1 ((300 mg BID) and Compound 2 (200 mg BID). All ocular lesion reduction measurements were based on baseline ocular lesion, which is the ocular tumor measurements before any treatment with Compound 1 and/or Compound 2.
