Table A
Pharmaceutical Compositions Some embodiments provide a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. Methods of Treatment A “PI3Kα inhibitor” as used herein (e.g., compounds of Formula (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof) includes any compound exhibiting PI3Kα inactivation activity (e.g., inhibiting or decreasing). In some embodiments, a PI3Kα inhibitor can be selective for a PI3Kα having one or more mutations. The ability of test compounds to act as inhibitors of PI3Kα may be demonstrated by assays known in the art. The activity of the compounds and compositions provided herein as PI3Kα inhibitors can be assayed in vitro, in vivo, or in a cell line. In vitro assays include assays that determine inhibition of the kinase. Alternate in vitro assays quantitate the ability of the inhibitor to bind to the protein kinase and can be measured either by radio labeling 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 radio ligands. Potency of a PI3Kα inhibitor as provided herein can be determined by EC 50 value. A compound with a lower EC 50 value, as determined under substantially similar conditions, is a more potent inhibitor relative to a compound with a higher EC 50 value. Potency of a PI3Kα inhibitor as provided herein can also be determined by IC 50 value. A compound with a lower IC 50 value, as determined under substantially similar conditions, is a more potent inhibitor relative to a compound with a higher IC 50 value. In some embodiments, the substantially similar conditions comprise determining a PI3Kα-dependent phosphorylation level, in vitro or in vivo. The selectivity between wild type PI3Kα and PI3Kα containing one or more mutations as described herein can also be measured using in vitro assays such as surface plasmon resonance and fluorence-based binding assays, and cellular assays such as the levels of pAKT, a biomarker of PI3Kα activity, and/or proliferation assays where cell proliferation is dependent on mutant PI3Kα kinase activity. In some embodiments, the compounds provided herein can exhibit potent and selective inhibition of PI3Kα. For example, the compounds provided herein can bind to the helical phosphatidylinositol kinase homology domain catalytic domain of PI3Kα. In some embodiments, the compounds provided herein can exhibit nanomolar potency against a PI3Kα kinase including one or more mutations, for example, the mutations in Table 1. In some embodiments, the compounds of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, can selectively target PI3Kα. For example, a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, can selectively target PI3Kα over another kinase or non-kinase target. In some embodiments, a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, can exhibit greater inhibition of PI3Kα containing one or more mutations as described herein (e.g., one or more mutations as described in Table 1) relative to inhibition of wild type PI3Kα. In some embodiments, a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof can exhibit at least 2-fold, 3-fold, 5-fold, 10-fold, 25-fold, 50-fold or 100-fold greater inhibition of PI3Kα containing one or more mutations as described herein relative to inhibition of wild type PI3Kα. In some embodiments, a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, can exhibit up to 1,000-fold greater inhibition of PI3Kα containing one or more mutations as described herein relative to inhibition of wild type PI3Kα. In some embodiments, a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, can exhibit up to 10,000-fold greater inhibition of PI3Kα having a combination of mutations described herein relative to inhibition of wild type PI3Kα. In some embodiments, a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, can exhibit from about 2-fold to about 10-fold greater inhibition of PI3Kα containing one or more mutations as described herein relative to inhibition of wild type PI3Kα. In some embodiments, a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, can exhibit from about 10-fold to about 100-fold greater inhibition of PI3Kα containing one or more mutations as described herein relative to inhibition of wild type PI3Kα. In some embodiments, a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, can exhibit from about 100-fold to about 1,000-fold greater inhibition of PI3Kα containing one or more mutations as described herein relative to inhibition of wild type PI3Kα. In some embodiments, a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, can exhibit from about 1000-fold to about 10,000-fold greater inhibition of PI3Kα containing one or more mutations as described herein relative to inhibition of wild type PI3Kα. Compounds of Formula (I), or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, are useful for treating diseases which can be treated with a PI3Kα inhibitor, such as PI3Kα-associated diseases, e.g., proliferative disorders such as cancers, including hematological cancers and solid tumors (e.g., advanced or metastatic solid tumors). In some embodiments, the subject has been identified or diagnosed as having a cancer with a dysregulation of a PIK3CA gene, a PI3Kα protein, or expression or activity, or level of any of the same (a PI3Kα-associated cancer), for example, as determined using a regulatory agency-approved, e.g., FDA-approved, assay or kit. In some embodiments, the subject has a tumor that is positive for a dysregulation of a PIK3CA gene, a PI3Kα protein, or expression or activity, or level of any of the same (e.g., as determined using a regulatory agency-approved assay or kit). For example, the subject has a tumor that is positive for a mutation as described in Table 1. The subject can be a subject with a tumor(s) that is positive for a dysregulation of a PIK3CA gene, a PI3Kα protein, or expression or activity, or level of any of the same (e.g., identified as positive using a regulatory agency-approved, e.g., FDA-approved, assay or kit). The subject can be a subject whose tumors have a dysregulation of a PIK3CA gene, a PI3Kα protein, or expression or activity, or a level of the same (e.g., where the tumor is identified as such using a regulatory agency-approved, e.g., FDA-approved, kit or assay). In some embodiments, the subject is suspected of having a PI3Kα -associated cancer. In some embodiments, the subject has a clinical record indicating that the subject has a tumor that has a dysregulation of a PIK3CA gene, a PI3Kα protein, or expression or activity, or level of any of the same (and optionally the clinical record indicates that the subject should be treated with any of the compositions provided herein). In certain embodiments, compounds of Formula (I), or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, are useful for preventing diseases as defined herein such as cancer. The term “preventing” as used herein means to delay the onset, recurrence or spread, in whole or in part, of the disease as described herein, or a symptom thereof. The term “PI3Kα-associated disease” as used herein refers to diseases associated with or having a dysregulation of a PIK3CA gene, a PI3Kα 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 a PIK3CA gene, or a PI3Kα protein, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same described herein). Non-limiting examples of a PI3Kα-associated disease include, for example, proliferative disorders such as cancer (e.g., PI3Kα-associated cancer). The term “PI3Kα-associated cancer” as used herein refers to cancers associated with or having a dysregulation of a PIK3CA gene, a PI3Kα protein, or expression or activity, or level of any of the same. Non-limiting examples of PI3Kα-associated cancer are described herein. The phrase “dysregulation of a PIK3CA gene, a PI3Kα protein, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same” refers to a genetic mutation (e.g., a mutation in a PIK3CA gene that results in the expression of a PI3Kα that includes a deletion of at least one amino acid as compared to a wild type PI3Kα, a mutation in a PIK3CA gene that results in the expression of PI3Kα with one or more point mutations as compared to a wild type PI3Kα, a mutation in a PIK3CA gene that results in the expression of PI3Kα with at least one inserted amino acid as compared to a wild type PI3Kα, a gene duplication that results in an increased level of PI3Kα in a cell, or a mutation in a regulatory sequence (e.g., a promoter and/or enhancer) that results in an increased level of PI3Kα in a cell), an alternative spliced version of PI3Kα mRNA that results in PI3Kα having a deletion of at least one amino acid in the PI3Kα as compared to the wild type PI3Kα), or increased expression (e.g., increased levels) of a wild type PI3Kα 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 a PIK3CA gene, a PI3Kα protein, or expression or activity, or level of any of the same, can be a mutation in a PIK3CA gene that encodes a PI3Kα that is constitutively active or has increased activity as compared to a protein encoded by a PIK3CA gene that does not include the mutation. Non- limiting examples of PI3Kα point mutations/substitutions/insertions/deletions are described in Table 1. The term “wild type” describes a nucleic acid (e.g., a PIK3CA gene or a PI3Kα mRNA) or protein (e.g., a PI3Kα) sequence that is typically found in a subject that does not have a disease related to the reference nucleic acid or protein. The term “wild type PI3Kα” or “wild-type PI3Kα” describes a normal PI3Kα nucleic acid (e.g., a PIK3CA or PI3Kα mRNA) or protein that is found in a subject that does not have a PI3Kα-associated disease, e.g., a PI3Kα -associated cancer (and optionally also does not have an increased risk of developing a PI3Kα -associated disease and/or is not suspected of having a PI3Kα-associated disease), or is found in a cell or tissue from a subject that does not have a PI3Kα-associated disease, e.g., a PI3Kα -associated cancer (and optionally also does not have an increased risk of developing a PI3Kα -associated disease and/or is not suspected of having a PI3Kα-associated disease). Provided herein is a method of treating cancer (e.g., a PI3Kα-associated cancer) in a subject in need thereof, comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a pharmaceutical composition thereof. For example, provided herein are methods for treating PI3Kα-associated cancer in a subject in need thereof, comprising a) detecting a dysregulation of PIK3CA gene, a PI3Kα protein, 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 PIK3CA gene, a PI3Kα protein, or the expression or activity or level of any of the same includes one or more a PI3Kα protein substitutions/point mutations/insertions. Non- limiting examples of PI3Kα protein substitutions/insertions/deletions are described in Table 1. In some embodiments, the PI3Kα protein substitution/insertion/deletion is selected from the group consisting of E542A, E542G, E542K, E542Q, E542V, E545A, E545D, E545G, E545K, E545Q, M1043I, M1043L, M1043T, M1043V, H1047L, H1047Q, H1047R, H1047Y, G1049R, and combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the PI3Kα protein substitution / insertion / deletion is H1047X, where X is any amino acid other than H. In some embodiments, the PI3Kα protein substitution / insertion / deletion is E542X, where X is any amino acid other than E. In some embodiments, the PI3Kα protein substitution / insertion / deletion is E545X, where X is any amino acid other than E. In some embodiments, the dysregulation of a PIK3CA gene, a PI3Kα protein, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, includes a splice variation in a PI3Kα mRNA which results in an expressed protein that is an alternatively spliced variant of PI3Kα having at least one residue deleted (as compared to the wild type PI3Kα protein) resulting in a constitutive activity of a PI3Kα protein domain. In some embodiments, the dysregulation of a PIK3CA gene, a PI3Kα protein, or expression or activity or level of any of the same, includes at least one point mutation in a PIK3CA gene that results in the production of a PI3Kα protein that has one or more amino acid substitutions or insertions or deletions in a PIK3CA gene that results in the production of a PI3Kα protein that has one or more amino acids inserted or removed, as compared to the wild type PI3Kα protein. In some cases, the resulting mutant PI3Kα protein has increased activity, as compared to a wild type PI3Kα protein or a PI3Kα protein not including the same mutation. In some embodiments, the compounds described herein selectively inhibit the resulting mutant PI3Kα protein relative to a wild type PI3Kα protein or a PI3Kα protein not including the same mutation.
