  • Protein tyrosine kinases catalyze the phosphorylation of specific tyrosine residues. One member of this class of enzymes is the c-Src protein tyrosine kinase. Surprisingly, it has now been found that compounds inhibiting the c-Src protein tyrosine kinase activity, especially the compounds described hereinafter, are effective against leukaemia. Furthermore, it was surprisingly found that the effect in treating leukaemia of a combination which comprises (a) at least one compound decreasing the c-Src activity and (b) STI571 or the monomethane-sulfonate salt thereof is greater than the effects that can be achieved with either type of combination partner alone, i.e. greater than the effects of a monotherapy using only one of the combination partners (a) and (b) as defined herein.[0002]

The combination partners (a) and (b) having an acid group (for example COOH) can also form salts with bases. The pharmacologically active compounds mentioned herein may also be used in form of a hydrate or include other solvents used for crystallization. STI571, i.e. the combination partner (b), is preferably used in the present invention in the form of its monomesylate salt. [0013]
  • Additionally, the present invention relates to a method of treating a warm-blooded animal having leukaemia comprising administering to the animal at least one compound inhibiting the c-Src protein tyrosine kinase activity and the Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase activity, in a quantity which is therapeutically effective against leukaemia, in which method said compounds can also be present in the form of their pharmaceutically acceptable salts. Preferably, such compound is a compound of formula V. [0014]
  • The utility of the compounds inhibiting the c-Src protein tyrosine kinase activity for the treatment of leukemia can be demonstrated, e.g., in the proliferation test using bcr-Abl transfected 32D cells as follows: [0015]
  • Bcr-Abl-transfected 32D cells (32D pGD p210 Bcr-Abl; Bazzoni, G.; et al. J. Clin. Invest. (1996), 98(2), 521-528) are cultured in RPMI 1640 (BioConcept, Allschwil, Switzerland; cat. No.: 1-41 F01), 10% fetal calf serum, 2 mM glutamine. 10000 cells in 50 μL per well are seeded into flat bottom 96 well tissue culture plates. Complete medium alone (for controls) or serial threefold dilutions of compounds are added in triplicates to a final volume of 100 μL and the cells are incubated at 37° C., 5% CO[0016] 2 for 65 to 72 h. The cell proliferation reagent WST-1 (Roche Diagnostics GmbH; cat.no.: 1 664 807) is added at 10 μL per well followed by 2 h incubation at 37° C. Colour development, depending on the amount of living cells, is measured at 440 nm. The effect for each compound is calculated as percent inhibition of the value (OD440) obtained for the control cells (100%) and plotted against the compound concentrations. The IC50s are calculated from the dose response curves by graphic extrapolation.
  • Compounds inhibiting the growth of 32D-Bcr-Abl cells can be further tested on IL-3 dependent 32D wt cells to prove the specificity of the compounds for the bcr-Abl kinase and to exclude compound toxicity. [0017]
  • A combination which comprises (a) at least one compound decreasing the c-Src activity and (b) ST1571, wherein the active ingredients are present in each case in free form or in the form of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, and optionally at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier will be referred to hereinafter as a COMBINATION OF THE INVENTION. [0018]
  • The nature of proliferative diseases like leukemia is multifactorial. Under certain circumstances, drugs with different mechanisms of action may be combined. However, just considering any combination of drugs having different mode of action does not necessarily lead to combinations with advantageous effects. [0019]
  • All the more surprising is the experimental finding that the administration of a COMBINATION OF THE INVENTION, results not only in a beneficial effect, especially a synergistic therapeutic effect, e.g. with regard to slowing down, arresting or reversing the progress of leukaemia or a longer duration of drug response, but also in further surprising beneficial effects, e.g. less side-effects, an improved quality of life and a decreased mortality and morbidity, compared to a monotherapy applying only one of the pharmaceutically active ingredients used in the COMBINATION OF THE INVENTION. [0020]
  • A further benefit is that lower doses of the active ingredients of the COMBINATION OF THE INVENTION can be used, for example, that the dosages need not only often be smaller, but can be also applied less frequently, or can be used in order to diminish the incidence of side-effects. This is in accordance with the desires and requirements of the patients to be treated. [0021]
  • The utility of the COMBINATION OF THE INVENTION for the treatment of leukemia can be demonstrated, e.g., in the proliferation test using bcr-Abl transfected 32D cells as follows: [0022]
  • The proliferation test using bcr-Abl transfected 32D cells with a COMBINATION OF THE INVENTION is carried out as described above with the following changes. Two combination partners are mixed in fixed ratios. Threefold serial dilutions of this mixture or the combination partners alone are added to the cells seeded in 96 well tissue culture plates as described above. The effects on 32D-bcr-Abl cell proliferation of a COMBINATION OF THE INVENTION is evaluated and compared with the effects of the single combination partners using CalcuSyn, a dose-effect analyzer software for single and multiple drugs (distributed by Biosoft, Cambridge). [0023]
  • One particular benefit of the present invention is the fact that the leukaemia that can be treated with a compound inhibiting the c-Src protein tyrosine kinase activity or with the COMBINATION OF THE INVENTION can be such leukaemia which is resistent to monotherapy employing STI571 as sole active agent, e.g. leukaemia of such patients who initially had responded to STI571 and then relapsed. Very especially, compounds inhibiting the c-Src protein tyrosine kinase activity and COMBINATIONS OF THE INVENTION can be used for the treatment of patients in the advanced stage (blast crisis phase) of CML. [0024]
  • The person skilled in the pertinent art is fully enabled to select further relevant test modesl to prove the hereinbefore and hereinafter mentioned beneficial effects on leukaemia of a compound inhibiting the c-Src protein tyrosine kinase activity or of a COMBINATION OF THE INVENTION. The pharmacological activity of a compound inhibiting the c-Src protein tyrosine kinase activity or a COMBINATION OF THE INVENTION may, for example, be demonstrated in a suitable clinical study. Suitable clinical studies are, for example, open label non-randomized, dose escalation studies in patients with advanced leukaemia. Such studies prove in particular the synergism observed with the COMBINATIONS OF THE INVENTION. The beneficial effects on leukaemia can be determined directly through the results of these studies or by changes in the study design which are known as such to a person skilled in the art. For example, the combination partner (b) can be administered with a fixed dose and the dose of the combination partner (a) is escalated until the Maximum Tolerated Dosage is reached. Alternatively, a placebo-controlled, double blind study can be conducted in order to prove the benefits of the COMBINATION OF THE INVENTION mentioned herein. [0025]
  • In one embodiment of the invention, the compound inhibiting the c-Src protein tyrosine kinase activity is selected from pyrrolopyrimidines, especially pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines, purines, pyrazopyrimidines, especially pyrazo[3,4-d]pyrimidines, pyrazopyrimidines, especially pyrazo[3,4-d]pyrimidines and pyridopyrimidines, especially pyrido[2,3-d]-pyrimidines. Particularly preferred are the compounds of formula I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII and VIII, especially the compound of formula I and formula V. [0026]
  • Especially preferred is a combination comprising a compound of formula I and STI571 or the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. Furthermore, especially preferred is a combination comprising a compound of formula V and STI571 or the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. [0027]
  • The invention pertains also to the use of at least one compound inhibiting the c-Src protein tyrosine kinase activity or of the COMBINATION OF THE INVENTION for the treatment of leukaemia and for the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of leukaemia. [0028]
  • The COMBINATION OF THE INVENTION can be a combined preparation or a pharmaceutical composition. [0029]
  • The term “a combined preparation”, as used herein defines especially a “kit of parts” in the sense that the combination partners (a) and (b) as defined above can be dosed independently or by use of different fixed combinations with distinguished amounts of the combination partners (a) and (b), i.e., simultaneously or at different time points. The parts of the kit of parts can then, e.g., be administered simultaneously or chronologically staggered, that is at different time points and with equal or different time intervals for any part of the kit of parts. Very preferably, the time intervals are chosen such that the effect on the treated disease in the combined use of the parts is larger than the effect which would be obtained by use of only any one of the combination partners (a) and (b). The ratio of the total amounts of the combination partner (a) to the combination partner (b) to be administered in the combined preparation can be varied, e.g. in order to cope with the needs of a patient sub-population to be treated or the needs of the single patient which different needs can be due to the particular disease, age, sex, body weight, etc. of the patients. Preferably, there is at least one beneficial effect, e.g., a mutual enhancing of the effect of the combination partners (a) and (b), in particular a synergism, e.g. a more than additive effect, additional advantageous effects, less side effects, a combined therapeutical effect in a non-effective dosage of one or both of the combination partners (a) and (b), and very preferably a strong synergism of the combination partners (a) and (b). [0030]
  • It is one objective of this invention to provide a pharmaceutical composition comprising a quantity, which is jointly therapeutically effective against leukaemia comprising the COMBINATION OF THE INVENTION. In this composition, the combination partners (a) and (b) can be administered together, one after the other or separately in one combined unit dosage form or in two separate unit dosage forms. The unit dosage form may also be a fixed combination. [0031]
  • The pharmaceutical compositions for separate administration of the combination partners (a) and (b) and for the administration in a fixed combination, i.e. a single galenical compositions comprising at least two combination partners (a) and (b), according to the invention can be prepared in a manner known per se and are those suitable for enteral, such as oral or rectal, and parenteral administration to mammals (warm-blooded animals), including man, comprising a therapeutically effective amount of at least one pharmacologically active combination partner alone or in combination with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carries, especially suitable for enteral or parenteral application. [0032]
  • Novel pharmaceutical composition contain, for example, from about 10% to about 100%, preferably from about 20% to about 60%, of the active ingredients. Pharmaceutical preparations for the combination therapy for enteral or parenteral administration are, for example, those in unit dosage forms, such as sugar-coated tablets, tablets, capsules or suppositories, and furthermore ampoules. If not indicated otherwise, these are prepared in a manner known per se, for example by means of conventional mixing, granulating, sugar-coating, dissolving or lyophilizing processes. It will be appreciated that the unit content of a combination partner contained in an individual dose of each dosage form need not in itself constitute an effective amount since the necessary effective amount can be reached by administration of a plurality of dosage units. [0033]
  • In particular, a therapeutically effective amount of each of the combination partner of the COMBINATION OF THE INVENTION may be administered simultaneously or sequentially and in any order, and the components may be administered separately or as a fixed combination. For example, the method of treatment of leukaemia according to the present invention may comprise (i) administration of the combination partner (a) in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form and (ii) adminstration of a combination partner (b) in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form, simultaneously or sequentially in any order, in jointly therapeutically effective amounts, preferably in synergistically effective amounts, e.g. in daily dosages corresponding to the amounts described herein. The individual combination partners of the COMBINATION OF THE INVENTION can be administered separately at different times during the course of therapy or concurrently in divided or single combination forms. Furthermore, the term administering also encompasses the use of a pro-drug of a combination partner that convert in vivo to the combination partner as such. The instant invention is therefore to be understood as embracing all such regimes of simultaneous or alternating treatment and the term administering is to be interpreted accordingly. [0034]
  • The effective dosage of each of compounds inhibiting the c-Src protein tyrosine kinase activity and of the combination partners employed in the COMBINATION OF THE INVENTION may vary depending on the particular compound or pharmaceutical composition employed, the mode of administration, the condition being treated, the severity of the condition being treated. Thus, the dosage regimen the COMBINATION OF THE INVENTION is selected in accordance with a variety of factors including the route of administration and the renal and hepatic function of the patient. A physician, clinician or veterinarian of ordinary skill can readily determine and prescribe the effective amount of the single active ingredients required to prevent, counter or arrest the progress of the condition. Optimal precision in achieving concentration of the active ingredients within the range that yields efficacy without toxicity requires a regimen based on the kinetics of the active ingredients' availability to target sites. [0035]
  • N-{5-[4-(4-methyl-piperazino-methyl)-benzoylamido]-2-methylphenyl}-4-(3-pyridyl)-2-pyrimidine-amine monomesylate, is preferably administered to a human in a dosage in the range of about 5 to 850 mg/day, more preferably 25 to 600 mg/day and most preferably 100 to 300 mg/day. Unless stated otherwise herein, the compound is preferably administered from one to four times per day. Compounds inhibiting the c-Src protein tyrosine kinase activity, e.g. the compound of formula I, is preferably administered orally to a human in a dosage in the range of about 100 to 2000 mg/day, more preferably 500 to 1500 mg/day, e.g. 1000 mg/day. [0036]
  • If BAY 43-9006 is employed as a combination partner, it is preferably administered orally at doses of up to 800 mg twice daily. [0037]
  • Moreover, the present invention provides a commercial package comprising as active ingredients COMBINATION OF THE INVENTION, together with instructions for simultaneous, separate or sequential use thereof in the treatment of leukaemia. [0038]
