Method Of Treating Cancer

Another aspect of the invention provides a method of treating a neoplasm in a subject comprising administering to a subject in need thereof the novel crystalline form described herein, the pharmaceutical composition thereof, a combination with one or more agents, or a kit containing the novel crystalline form.

Non-limiting examples of the neoplasm that can be treated according to this patent document include lung cancer including non-small cell lung cancer, breast cancer, stomach cancer, colon cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, myeloma, head and neck cancer, ovarian cancer, esophageal cancer, or metastatic cell carcinoma. In some embodimetns, the neoplasm associated with

overexpression or amplification of at least one gene of HER1 , HER2, and HER4 or a mutant thereof may be an abnormal growth of tissue, which if it forms a mass, is commonly referred to as a tumor having overexpression of at least one of HER1 , HER2, HER4 and mutant thereof or amplification of at ieast one gene coding of HER1 , HER2, HER4 or mutant thereof. The mutant may be HER1 having exon 19 deletion, T79QM substitution, L828R substitution, or combination thereof. As used herein, "overexpression" indicates that the protein is expressed at a higher level than normal ceils. The expression level can be measured using

immunohistochemistry, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) or chromogenic in situ hybridization (GISH).

The term "wild type" as used herein is understood in the art refers to a polypeptide or polynucleotide sequence that occurs in a native population without genetic modification. As is also understood in the art, a "mutant" includes a polypeptide or polynucleotide sequence having at ieast one modification to an amino acid or nucleic acid compared to the corresponding amino acid or nucleic acid found in a wild type polypeptide or polynucleotide, respectively included in the term mutant is Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) where a single base pair distinction exists in the sequence of a nucleic acid strand compared to the most prevalently found (wild type) nucleic acid strand.

Neoplasm including cancers that are either wild type or mutant for HER1 , HER2, or HER4 or have amplification of HER1 , HER2, or HER4 genes or have over expression of HER1 , HER2, or HER4 protein are identified by known methods.

For example, wild type or mutant HER1 , HER2, and HER4 tumor ceils can be identified by DNA amplification and sequencing techniques, DNA and RNA detection techniques, including, but not limited to Northern and Southern blot, respectively, and/or various biochip and array technologies or in-situ hybridization. Wild type and mutant polypeptides can be detected by a variety ot techniques including, but not limited to immunodiagnostic techniques such as ELISA, Western blot or immunocytochemistry.

The cancer to be treated may be associated with EGFR and/or HER2 exon 20 mutations, such as exon 20 insertion mutations. For instance, the novel crystalline form of the compound of this patent document or its combination with one or more agents can be used for the treatment of NSCLC patients with EGFR exon 20 mutations.

In some aspects, the cancer to be treated with the novel crystalline form of the compound of this patent document or its combination with one or more agents is oral cancer, oropharyngeal cancer, nasopharyngeal cancer, respiratory cancer, urogenital cancer, gastrointestinal cancer, central or peripheral nervous system tissue cancer, an endocrine or neuroendocrine cancer or hematopoietic cancer, glioma, sarcoma, carcinoma, lymphoma, melanoma, fibroma, meningioma, brain cancer, oropharyngeal cancer, nasopharyngeal cancer, renal cancer, biliary cancer, pheochromocytoma, pancreatic islet cell cancer, Li-Fraumeni tumors, thyroid cancer, parathyroid cancer, pituitary tumors, adrenal gland tumors, osteogenic sarcoma tumors, multiple neuroendocrine type I and type II tumors, breast cancer, lung cancer, head and neck cancer, prostate cancer, esophageal cancer, tracheal cancer, liver cancer, bladder cancer, stomach cancer, pancreatic cancer, ovarian cancer, uterine cancer, cervical cancer, testicular cancer, colon cancer, rectal cancer or skin cancer. In particular aspects, the cancer is non-small cell lung cancer.

By the term "treating" and derivatives thereof as used herein, is meant therapeutic therapy. In reference to a particular condition, treating means: (1 ) to ameliorate or prevent the condition of one or more of the biological manifestations of the condition, (2) to interfere with (a) one or more points in the biological cascade that leads to or is responsible for the condition or (b) one or more of the biological manifestations of the condition, (3) to alleviate one or more of the symptoms, effects or side effects associated with the condition or treatment thereof, or (4) to slow the progression of the condition or one or more of the biological manifestations of the condition. Prophylactic therapy is also contemplated thereby. The skilled artisan will appreciate that "prevention" is not an absolute term in medicine, "prevention" is understood to refer to the prophylactic administration of a drug to substantially diminish the likelihood or severity of a condition or biological manifestation thereof, or to delay the onset of such condition or biological manifestation thereof.

Prophylactic therapy is appropriate, for example, when a subject is considered at high risk for developing cancer, such as when a subject has a strong family history of cancer or when a subject has been exposed to a carcinogen.

Hereinafter, this patent document will be described with reference to specific examples. However, the following embodiments are only illustrative of the present invention, and the scope of this patent document is not limited thereto. Analytical instruments and measuring methods

1. X~ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD)

X-ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD) spectroscopy was conducted on the D8 Advance (Brisker ASX, Germany) analyzer from 3°2Q to 40°2Q for the sample. When the amount of the sample is <100 mg, about 5 - 1 0 mg of the sample Is gently squeezed onto the glass slide fitted to the sample holder. When the amount of sample was >100 mg, about 100 mg of sample was gently squeezed onto the plastic sample holder so that sample surface was smooth and was just above the sample holder level.

The measurements were made as follows:

Anode material (Ka): Cu Ka (1 .54Q56A)

Scan range: 3 - 40 degrees

Generator settings: 100 mA, 40.0 kV

Scan speed: 1 sec/step

Divergent slit size (Diver slit): 0.3 degree

Anti-scatter slit: 0.3 degree

Temperature: 20 °C

Step size: 0.02 deg 2Q

Rotating: Use

Goniometer radius: 435mm

2. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC)

Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC) analysis was conducted on the ST - 1000 (Scinco, Korea) analyzer at 30 - 350 °C 5 - 10 mg of sample was weighed into the aluminum DSC pan and sealed non-hermetica!ly with the perforated aluminum lid, and then the heat flow reaction (DSC) generated by heating the sample from 30 ^C G to 350 °C at a scan rate of 10 °C/min was monitored. 3. Dynamic Vapor Sorption (DVS)

Dynamic Vapor Sorption (DVS) analysis was conducted on the DVS advantage {Surface measurement system, United Kingdom) analyzer at 25 °C and relative humidity of 0 - 90%.

10 g of sample was placed in the wire mesh steam sorption balance pan and attached to the DVS-advantage dynamic vapor adsorption balance by the Surface Measurement Systems. The sample was applied to ramping profile of relative humidity (RH) of 10 - 90% in 10% increments while maintaining the sample in each step until a stable weight was achieved (99.5% step completion). After the completion of the sorption cycle, the sample was dried using the same procedure, during which the relative humidity was returned to a relative humidity below 0% all the time. The change in weight during the sorption/desorption cycle (repetition of 3 times) was recorded to determine the hygroscopicity of the sample.
