Description:
METHODS OF IMPROVING GROWTH AND FUNCTION OF IMMUNE CELLS CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This application claims the benefit under 35 U.S.C. §119(e) of U.S. Provisional Application No.63/240,334, filed on September 2, 2021, U.S. Provisional Application No.63/275,198, filed on November 3, 2021, U.S. Provisional Application No.63/318,737, filed on March 10, 2022, and U.S. Provisional Application No.63/352,746, filed on June 16, 2022, which are incorproated herein by reference in their entireties. FIELD [0002] Described herein are methods of increasing production of interferon gamma (IFNγ), activation, and/or proliferation of immune cells using cannabinoid receptor type 2 modulators or pharmaceutical compositions and medicaments comprising cannabinoid receptor type 2 modulators. The disclosure also pertains to improving immunotherapy and treating, reducing, or preventing immune cell exhaustion in patients in need thereof. BACKGROUND [0003] In humans, T cells are the immune system’s primary killers of infected and diseased cells. Cancer immunotherapy relies on getting T cells to attack and kill tumor cells. T cell function, however, can fade with chronic infection (e.g., viral infection) and/or disease (e.g., progressive development of cancer), a phenomenon referred to as T cell exhaustion. Other immune cells such as natural killer (NK) cells and B cells can also become exhausted. Exhausted immune cells exhibit aberrant expression of transcription factors, cell surface antigens, and effector molecules that contribute to decreased T cell function. For example, exhausted T cells exhibit increased appearance of immune checkpoint proteins on the cellular surface such as PD-1 and CTLA-4, which can prevent a T cell’s ability to kill infected and diseased cells. One of the most popular and successful strategies to combat T cell exhaustion is the use of checkpoint inhibitors (e.g., anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, and anti CTLA-4). However, studies suggest that checkpoint inhibitor therapy is often ineffective alone. (See, e.g., Zhang et al., “T Cell Dysfunction and Exhaustion in Cancer,” Front. Cell Dev. Biol.8(17): 1-13 (2020) (reporting that the response rate of checkpoint inhibitor therapy is less than 30% in solid tumors)). Moreover, while combination therapies are being investigated with some success, challenges remain for development of immunotherapy for wide clinical applications. [0004] Thus, there remains a need for safe, effective, and convenient methods to treat various immunosuppression associated with chronic infection and disease, e.g., patients with immune cell exhaustion. SUMMARY [0005] It has been found that inhibition of the cannabinoid type 2 receptor (CB 2 R) restores immune cell (e.g., T cell, NK cell, and B cell) function and relieves innate and adaptive immunosuppression. Provided herein are methods for treating, reducing, or preventing immune cell exhaustion (e.g., in cancer patients and/or patients suffering from viral infection). In some embodiments, provided herein is a method for increasing the production of interferon gamma (IFNγ) or growth or proliferation of immune cells in a patient in need thereof, comprising administering to the patient an effective amount of a cannabinoid type 2 receptor (CB 2 R) modulator. In some embodiments, the patient has a viral infection or cancer. [0006] In some embodiments, provided herein is a method for treating, reducing, or preventing immune cell exhaustion in a patient in need thereof, comprising administering to the patient an effective amount of a cannabinoid type 2 receptor (CB2R) modulator. [0007] In some embodiments, the CB2R modulator is an agent which antagonizes, reverse agonizes, negatively modulates, or otherwise inhibits or partially inhibits CB2R.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION [0026] Exhausted immune cells (e.g., exhausted T cells) can emerge during chronic high grade infections such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C, or long Covid, during immunodeficiency virus infections such as AIDS, and during tumor outgrowth. Provided herein are methods to prevent, reduce or reverse exhausted immune cells such as exhausted T cells or NK cells. In other words, provided herein are methods for keeping immune cells healthy and functioning. [0027] Typically, treatment with chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CART) therapy is initially succesful when treating cancer. A drawback of CART therapy is that the CAR T cells circulate in the blood and are unable to penetrate deep into tumor tissue. Due to their presence in the circulatory system, the CAR T cells have a limited life, possibly due to exposure to cytokine storms associated with the underlying infection or disease, thereby leading to exhausted CAR T cells. The methods described herein comprise administration of a CB 2 modulator as an adjunct and/or adjuvant to immunetherapies. Treatment with a CB 2 modulator activates immune cells such as T cells and NK cells, including exhausted T cells and exhausted NK cells. Accordingly, the methods described herein prolong the therapeutic effect of immunotherapies such as CAR T cells and/or re-activate exhausted immune cells such as exhausted T cells and/or reverse or delay the decline in efficay of immunotherapies such as CAR T cell therapy. [0028] Exhausted T cells exhibit increased appearance on their surface of checkpoint proteins like PD-1 and CTLA-4, which can cause those T cells to stand down. Immune checkpoint inhibitors block these checkpoint proteins and were expected to ramp up the immune response against tumors. However, treatment with checkpoint inhibitors does not address the underlying T cell exhaustion, which reduces therapeutic effectiveness of checkpoint inhibitors. In other instances, development of resistance to checkpoint inhibitors reduces the therapeutic effectiveness of checkpoint inhibitors. The methods described herein can treat, prevent, reduce, reverse, or delay T cell exhaustion, thereby improving effectiveness of immunotherapeutics like check point inhibitors. 1.

A widely used example of ex vivo experimentation is the chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay, which involves the implantation of a material or compound on the extraembryonic membrane of the developing chicken egg. 2. Immune Cell Therapies [0067] In some embodiments, disclosed herein are methods of improving immune cell therapies using cannabinoid receptor type 2 (CB 2 R) modulators. [0068] Immune cell therapies (or, adoptive cell therapies) are forms of treatment using the cells of the immune system to target and eliminate cells that have become infected, damaged, and/or cancerous. Immune cell therapies include engineered T cell receptor (TCR) therapy, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) therapy, and tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) therapy. [0069] In some embodiments, immune cells may be targeted and treated inside a patient (in situ) using a vector comprising a nucleic acid and a targeting protein against an immune cell-associated antigen. In some embodiments, the nucleic acid encodes an engineered receptor against a disease- associated antigen. In some embodiments, the engineered receptor comprises a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) or T cell receptor (TCR). In some embodiments, the immune cell-associated antigen is an antigen presented on a T cell, B cell, natural killer (NK) cell, or a tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL). Thus, in some embodiments, the vector may target an immune cell in a patient and deliver a CAR or TCR to the immune cell, thereby providing an immune cell therapy in situ. [0070] In some embodiments, immune cells (e.g., T cells, natural killer (NK) cells, and B cells) may be isolated from a patient, equipped with T cell receptors (hence, TCR therapy) that enables them to target specific cell antigens, activated, expanded, and re-infused into the patient. TCR therapy targets and eliminates cells that present their antigens via major histocompatibility complex (MHC). [0071] In some embodiments, immune cells (e.g., T cells, natural killer (NK) cells, and B cells) may be equipped with chimeric antigen receptors (CAR). Immune cells equipped with CAR may bind specific cells (e.g., cancer cells) regardless of whether antigens are presented on the cellular surface via major histocompatibility complex (MHC). [0072] In some embodiments, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) (e.g., immune cells) that have already infiltrated a patient’s tumor(s) may be isolated from the patient, activated, expanded, and re- infused into the patient. 3.

[0091] In some embodiments, the patient is being treated with, or has been treated with, a chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CART) therapy. [0092] In some embodiments, the patient is being treated with, or has been treated with, a check point inhibitor. In some embodiments, the checkpoint inhibitor is selected from atezolizumab, avelumab, cemiplimab, labrolizumab, durvalumab, ipilimumab, nivolumab, and pembrolizumab. [0093] In some embodiments, the CART therapy comprises allogeneic CAR T cells. In some embodiments, CART therapy comprises alloreactive CAR T cells. In some embodiments, the CART therapy comprises autologous CAR T cells. In some embodiments, the CART therapy comprises bispecific CAR T cells. In some embodiments, the CAR T-cell therapy targets antigens on B cells, e.g., CD19, CD22, CD38, CS1, or BCMA, or combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the CART therapy is ABECMA® (idecabtagene vicleucel), BREYANZI® (lisocabtagene maraleucel), KYMRIAH® (tisagenlecleucel), TECARTUS® (brexucabtagene autoleucel), or YESCARTA® (axicabtagene ciloleucel). In situ therapy [0094] The immune cell target of the methods described herein may be one that is introduced to the patient, as part of a cellular immunotherapeutic composition. Alternatively, the target immune cell is an endogenous cell, optionally being activated, in situ, to have therapeutic activities. Such an in situ activated immune cell can also be at risk of exhaustion. Accordingly, prior to or following the in situ activation, the target immune cell can be contacted with a CB2R modulator to prevent or reduce its exhaustion. [0095] In some embodiments is a method for treating a disease in a patient in need thereof comprising administering to the patient an effective amount of a cannabinoid type 2 receptor (CB 2 R) modulator, along with a vector comprising a nucleic acid, optionally with a targeting protein against an immune cell-associated antigen, wherein the nucleic acid encodes an engineered receptor against a disease-associated antigen. [0096] In some embodiments is a method for treating, reducing, or preventing immune cell exhaustion in a patient in need thereof comprising administering to the patient an effective amount of a cannabinoid type 2 receptor (CB 2 R) modulator, and a vector comprising a nucleic acid, optionally with a targeting protein against an immune cell-associated antigen, wherein the nucleic acid encodes an engineered receptor against a disease-associated antigen. Ex-vivo therapy [0097] Also contemplated within the scope of embodiments of this disclosue are ex-vivo methods of therapy. In some embodiments, prior to injection of CAR T cells in a patient in need thereof, the CAR T cells are pre-treated with a CB2 modulator described herein. In some embodiments, provided herein is a method of treating, preventing, reducing, or delaying T cell exhaustion in a patient in need thereof, comprising administering CB2 modulator-pre-treated CAR T cells to the patient in need thereof. In some embodiments, the CB2 modulator is administered in combination with the pre- treated CAR T cells. Further contemplated within the scope of embodiments of this disclosure is pre- treatment of other immune cells such as, e.g., NK cells. Also contemplated within the scope of embodiments of this disclosure is co-admininstration of a CB2 modulator with CB2-modulator pre- treated- immune cells such as, e.g., pre-treated NK cells. [0098] The immune cell target of the methods described herein may be from an external source, such as from a cellular immunotherapeutic composition. In such embodiments, the CB2R inhibition can also be carried out ex vivo. That is, the CB2R inhibition can be carried out in the immune cell before it is administered to the patient. Such a pre-administration/ex vivo treatment, it is contemplated, can also be effective in preventing exhaustion of the immune cell.

Immune Cell Exhaustion [00107] Patients suffering from a variety of conditions will benefit from the methods provided herein. In some embodiments, disclosed herein are methods of treating immune cell exhaustion with a CB2R modulator as described herein. [00108] The term “immune cell exhaustion” as used herein, referes to varied, but distinct, epigenetic and metabolic states of immune cells observed in the presence of persistent antigen and chronic immune cell receptor, e.g., T cell receptor, stimulation, typically as a result of chronic infections (e.g., HIV infections, SARS CoV-2 infections) and cancer progression. Regarding T cells, for example, compared with memory or effector T cells, exhausted T cells exhibit reduced responses to antigens, altered effector functions (e.g., decreased cytokine expression), increased chemokine expression, high expression levels of inhibitory receptors (e.g., PD1, TIM3, LAG3, CTLA4, CD39, CD73, and TIGIT), reduced proliferative capacity, altered transcriptional program involving the transcription factor TOX, a unique epigenetic landscape, and reduced levels of signaling proteins associated with activation and/or increased levels of negative regulatory proteins (e.g., diacylglycerol kinases, phosphatases, and E3 ubiquitin ligases). (See, e.g., Blank et al., “Defining T Cell Exhaustion,” Nat. Rev. Immunol.19(11): 665-674 (2019)). Under the settings of tumors and chronic infections, NK cells and B cells exhibit an exhausted status similar with exhausted T cells, displaying decreased proliferation, poor effector function, and altered phenotype. [00109] In some embodiments, a CB 2 R modulator described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or stereoisomer thereof, increases immune cell responses to antigens, increases immune cell cytokine expression, decreases immune cell chemokine expression, reduces immune cell expression of inhibitory receptors, increases immune cell proliferative capacity, increases immune cell expression of signaling proteins associated with immune cell activation, and/or reduces immune cell expression of negative regulatory proteins thereby reversing or reducing immune cell exhaustion. [0100] In some embodiments, a patient treated with a CB2R modulator suffers from chronic infection or disease associated with decreased immune cell function and/or immune cell exhaustion. In some embodiments, the chronic infection or disease is cancer and/or viral infection. [0101] In another aspect, a CB2R modulator described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or stereoisomer thereof, reduces, ameliorates, or inhibits the immunosuppression and decreased cell proliferation associated with decreased immune cell function and/or immune cell exhaustion. Cancer [0102] In some embodiments, patients who may benefit from the methods described herein have cancer. [0103] The term “cancer” as used herein, refers to an abnormal growth of cells that tend to proliferate in an uncontrolled way and, in some cases, to metastasize (spread). Types of cancer include, but are not limited to, solid tumors (such as those of the bladder, bowel, brain, breast, endometrium, heart, kidney, lung, liver, uterus, lymphatic tissue (lymphoma), ovary, pancreas or other endocrine organ (thyroid), prostate, skin (melanoma or basal cell cancer)) or hematological tumors (such as the leukemias and lymphomas) at any stage of the disease with or without metastases. [0104] In some embodiments, a patient treated with a modulator described herein has a disease or disorder that is associated with a cancer. Examples of cancers include and are not limited to carcinomas, sarcomas, benign tumors, primary tumors, tumor metastases, solid tumors, non-solid tumors, blood tumors, leukemias and lymphomas, and/or primary and metastatic tumors. [0105] In some embodiments, the patient may have solid tumours. A solid tumor is an abnormal mass of tissue that usually does not contain cysts or liquid areas. Solid tumors may be benign (not cancer), or malignant (cancer). Different types of solid tumors are named for the type of cells that form them. Examples of solid tumors are carcinomas, sarcomas, and lymphomas. [0106] Carcinomas include, but are not limited to, esophageal carcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, bladder carcinoma, bronchogenic carcinoma, colon carcinoma, colorectal carcinoma, gastric carcinoma, lung carcinoma, including small cell carcinoma and non-small cell carcinoma of the lung, adrenocortical carcinoma, thyroid carcinoma, pancreatic carcinoma, breast carcinoma, ovarian carcinoma, prostate carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, renal cell carcinoma, Wilm's tumor, cervical carcinoma, uterine carcinoma, testicular carcinoma, osteogenic carcinoma, epithelial carcinoma, and nasopharyngeal carcinoma. [0107] Sarcomas include, but are not limited to, fibrosarcoma, myxosarcoma, liposarcoma, chondrosarcoma, chordoma, osteogenic sarcoma, osteosarcoma, angiosarcoma, endotheliosarcoma, lymphangiosarcoma, lymphangioendotheliosarcoma, synovioma, mesothelioma, Ewing's sarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, and other soft tissue sarcomas. [0108] Leukemias include, but are not limited to, a) chronic myeloproliferative syndromes (neoplastic disorders of multipotential hematopoietic stem cells); b) acute myelogenous leukemias; c) chronic lymphocytic leukemias (CLL), including B-cell CLL, T-cell CLL prolymphocyte leukemia, and hairy cell leukemia; and d) acute lymphoblastic leukemias (characterized by accumulation of lymphoblasts). Lymphomas include, but are not limited to, B-cell lymphomas (e.g., Burkitt's lymphoma); Hodgkin's lymphoma; and the like. [0109] Benign tumors include, e.g., hemangiomas, hepatocellular adenoma, cavernous hemangioma, focal nodular hyperplasia, acoustic neuromas, neurofibroma, bile duct adenoma, bile duct cystanoma, fibroma, lipomas, leiomyomas, mesotheliomas, teratomas, myxomas, nodular regenerative hyperplasia, trachomas and pyogenic granulomas. [0110] Primary and metastatic tumors include, e.g., lung cancer; breast cancer; colorectal cancer; anal cancer; pancreatic cancer; prostate cancer; ovarian carcinoma; liver and bile duct carcinoma; esophageal carcinoma; bladder carcinoma; carcinoma of the uterus; glioma, glioblastoma, medulloblastoma, and other tumors of the brain; kidney cancers; cancer of the head and neck; cancer of the stomach; multiple myeloma; testicular cancer; germ cell tumor; neuroendocrine tumor; cervical cancer; carcinoids of the gastrointestinal tract, breast, and other organs. Chronic Infections [0111] In some embodiments, disclosed herein are methods of treating patients having chronic infections with a CB 2 R modulator described herein. [0112] The term “chronic infection” as used herein, refers to an infection characterized by the continued presence or recurrence of infectious bacteria or virus for weeks, months, years, or a lifetime after a primary infection. Non-limiting examples of viral infections include lymphocytic choriomeningitis (LCMV), hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), SARS CoV-2 infections including long Covid, and cytomegalovirus (CMV). Non-limiting examples of bacterial infections include Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Salmonella Typhi, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Escherichia coli. [0113] In some embodiments, the patient has a disease or disorder that is or is associated with a chronic infection. In some embodiments, the chronic infections are associated with decreased immune cell function and/or immune cell exhaustion. In some embodiments, the chronic infection is a viral infection (e.g., long covid, HIV). In some embodiments, the chronic infection is a bacterial infection. 4. Cannabinoid type 2 receptor (CB 2 R) modulators [0114] Cannabinoid type 2 receptor (CB 2 R) modulators interact with binding sites on CB 2 R. CB 2 R modulators that inhibit canonical CB 2 R function (i.e., immunosuppression), restore immune cell (e.g., T cell, NK cell, and B cell) functions and relieve innate and adaptive immunosuppression caused by immune cell exhaustion. [0115] In some embodiments a CB2R modulator is a CB2R antagonist and/or inverse agonist.

Further Forms of Compounds [0200] In one aspect, CB2R modulators described herein (e.g., compounds of Formula (I), (II), (III), (IV), (X), (XI), (XIA), (XIB), (XII), (XIIA), (XIIB), (XIII), (XIIIA), and/or (XIIIB)), are in the form of pharmaceutically acceptable salts. As well, active metabolites of these compounds having the same type of activity are included in the scope of the present disclosure. In addition, the compounds described herein can exist in unsolvated as well as solvated forms with pharmaceutically acceptable solvents such as water, ethanol, and the like. The solvated forms of the compounds presented herein are also considered to be disclosed herein. [0201] “Pharmaceutically acceptable,” as used herein, refers a material, such as a carrier or diluent, which does not abrogate the biological activity or properties of the compound, and is relatively nontoxic, i.e., the material is 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. [0202] The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to a form of a therapeutically active agent that consists of a cationic form of the therapeutically active agent in combination with a suitable anion, or in alternative embodiments, an anionic form of the therapeutically active agent in combination with a suitable cation. Handbook of Pharmaceutical Salts: Properties, Selection and Use. International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry, Wiley-VCH 2002. S.M. Berge, L.D. Bighley, D.C. Monkhouse, J. Pharm. Sci.1977, 66, 1-19. P. H. Stahl and C. G. Wermuth, editors, Handbook of Pharmaceutical Salts: Properties, Selection and Use, Weinheim/Zürich:Wiley-VCH/VHCA, 2002. Pharmaceutical salts typically are more soluble and more rapidly soluble in stomach and intestinal juices than non-ionic species and so are useful in solid dosage forms. Furthermore, because their solubility often is a function of pH, selective dissolution in one or another part of the digestive tract is possible and this capability can be manipulated as one aspect of delayed and sustained release behaviors. Also, because the salt-forming molecule can be in equilibrium with a neutral form, passage through biological membranes can be adjusted. [0203] In some embodiments, pharmaceutically acceptable salts are obtained by reacting a compound of Formula (I), (II), (III), (IV), (X), (XI), (XIA), (XIB), (XII), (XIIA), (XIIB), (XIII), (XIIIA), and/or (XIIIB) with an acid. In some embodiments, the compound of Formula (I), (II), (III), (IV), (X), (XI), (XIA), (XIB), (XII), (XIIA), (XIIB), (XIII), (XIIIA), and/or (XIIIB), (i.e. free base form) is basic and is reacted with an organic acid or an inorganic acid.

[0204] In some embodiments, pharmaceutically acceptable salts are obtained by reacting a compound of Formula (I), (II), (III), (IV), (X), (XI), (XIA), (XIB), (XII), (XIIA), (XIIB), (XIII), (XIIIA), and/or (XIIIB), with a base. In some embodiments, the compound of Formula (I), (II), (III), (IV), (X), (XI), (XIA), (XIB), (XII), (XIIA), (XIIB), (XIII), (XIIIA), and/or (XIIIB), is acidic and is reacted with a base. In such situations, an acidic proton of the compound of Formula (I), (II), (III), (IV), (X), (XI), (XIA), (XIB), (XII), (XIIA), (XIIB), (XIII), (XIIIA), and/or (XIIIB), is replaced by a metal ion, e.g., lithium, sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, or an aluminum ion. In some cases, compounds described herein coordinate with an organic base, such as, but not limited to, ethanolamine, diethanolamine, triethanolamine, tromethamine, meglumine, N-methylglucamine, dicyclohexylamine, tris(hydroxymethyl)methylamine. In other cases, compounds described herein form salts with amino acids such as, but not limited to, arginine, lysine, and the like. Acceptable inorganic bases used to form salts with compounds that include an acidic proton, include, but are not limited to, aluminum hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide, and the like. In some embodiments, the compounds provided herein are prepared as a sodium salt, calcium salt, potassium salt, magnesium salt, meglumine salt, N-methylglucamine salt or ammonium salt. [0205] It should be understood that a reference to a pharmaceutically acceptable salt includes the solvent addition forms. In some embodiments, solvates contain either stoichiometric or non- stoichiometric amounts of a solvent, and are formed during the process of crystallization with pharmaceutically acceptable solvents such as water, ethanol, and the like. Hydrates are formed when the solvent is water, or alcoholates are formed when the solvent is alcohol. Solvates of compounds described herein are conveniently prepared or formed during the processes described herein. In addition, the compounds provided herein optionally exist in unsolvated as well as solvated forms. [0206] The methods and formulations described herein include the use of N-oxides (if appropriate), or pharmaceutically acceptable salts of compounds having the structure of Formula (I), (II), (III), (IV), (X), (XI), (XIA), (XIB), (XII), (XIIA), (XIIB), (XIII), (XIIIA), and/or (XIIIB) as well as active metabolites of these compounds having the same type of activity. [0207] In some embodiments, sites on the organic radicals (e.g. alkyl groups, aromatic rings) of compounds of Formula (I), (II), (III), (IV), (X), ((XIA), (XIB), (XII), (XIIA), (XIIB), (XIII), (XIIIA), and/or (XIIIB), are susceptible to various metabolic reactions. Incorporation of appropriate substituents on the organic radicals will reduce, minimize or eliminate this metabolic pathway. In specific embodiments, the appropriate substituent to decrease or eliminate the susceptibility of the aromatic ring to metabolic reactions is, by way of example only, a halogen, deuterium, an alkyl group, a haloalkyl group, or a deuteroalkyl group. [0208] In another embodiment, the compounds described herein are labeled isotopically (e.g. with a radioisotope) or by another other means, including, but not limited to, the use of chromophores or fluorescent moieties, bioluminescent labels, or chemiluminescent labels. [0209] Compounds described herein include isotopically-labeled compounds, which are identical to those recited in the various formulae and structures presented herein, but for the fact that one or more atoms are replaced by an atom having an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number usually found in nature. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into the present compounds include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, fluorine chlorine, iodine, phosphorus, such as, for example, 2 H, 3 H, 13 C, 14 C, 15 N, 18 O, 17 O, 35 S, 18 F, 36 Cl, 123 I, 124 I, 125 I, 131 I, 32 P and 33 P. In one aspect, isotopically-labeled compounds described herein, for example those into which radioactive isotopes such as 3 H and 14 C are incorporated, are useful in drug and/or substrate tissue distribution assays. In one aspect, substitution with isotopes such as deuterium affords certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability, such as, for example, increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements. In some embodiments, one or more hydrogens of the compounds of Formula (I) are replaced with deuterium. [0210] In some embodiments, the compounds of Formula (I), (II), (III), (IV), (X), (XI), (XIA), (XIB), (XII), (XIIA), (XIIB), (XIII), (XIIIA), and/or (XIIIB), possess one or more stereocenters and each stereocenter exists independently in either the R or S configuration. In some embodiments, the compound of Formula (I), (II), (III), (IV), (X), (XI), (XIA), (XIB), (XII), (XIIA), (XIIB), (XIII), (XIIIA), and/or (XIIIB), exists in the R configuration. In some embodiments, the compound of Formula (I), (II), (III), (IV), (X), (XI), (XIA), (XIB), (XII), (XIIA), (XIIB), (XIII), (XIIIA), and/or (XIIIB), exists in the S configuration. The compounds presented herein include all diastereomeric, individual enantiomers, atropisomers, and epimeric forms as well as the appropriate mixtures thereof. The compounds and methods provided herein include all cis, trans, syn, anti, entgegen (E), and zusammen (Z) isomers as well as the appropriate mixtures thereof. [0211] Individual stereoisomers are obtained, if desired, by methods such as, stereoselective synthesis and/or the separation of stereoisomers by chiral chromatographic columns or the separation of diastereomers by either non-chiral or chiral chromatographic columns or crystallization and recrystallization in a proper solvent or a mixture of solvents. In certain embodiments, compounds of Formula (I), (II), (III), (IV), (X), (XI), (XIA), (XIB), (XII), (XIIA), (XIIB), (XIII), (XIIIA), and/or (XIIIB), are prepared as their individual stereoisomers by reacting a racemic mixture of the compound with an optically active resolving agent to form a pair of diastereoisomeric compounds/salts, separating the diastereomers and recovering the optically pure individual enantiomers. In some embodiments, resolution of individual enantiomers is carried out using covalent diastereomeric derivatives of the compounds described herein. In another embodiment, diastereomers are separated by separation/resolution techniques based upon differences in solubility. In other embodiments, separation of stereoisomers is performed by chromatography or by the forming diastereomeric salts and separation by recrystallization, or chromatography, or any combination thereof. Jean Jacques, Andre Collet, Samuel H. Wilen, “Enantiomers, Racemates and Resolutions”, John Wiley And Sons, Inc., 1981. In some embodiments, stereoisomers are obtained by stereoselective synthesis. [0212] In some embodiments, compounds described herein are prepared as prodrugs. A “prodrug” refers to an agent that is converted into the parent drug in vivo. Prodrugs are often useful because, in some situations, they are easier to administer than the parent drug. They are, for instance, bioavailable by oral administration whereas the parent is not. Further or alternatively, the prodrug also has improved solubility in pharmaceutical compositions over the parent drug. In some embodiments, the design of a prodrug increases the effective water solubility. An example, without limitation, of a prodrug is a compound described herein, which is administered as an ester (the “prodrug”) but then is metabolically hydrolyzed to provide the active entity. A further example of a prodrug is a short peptide (polyaminoacid) bonded to an acid group where the peptide is metabolized to reveal the active moiety. In certain embodiments, upon in vivo administration, a prodrug is chemically converted to the biologically, pharmaceutically or therapeutically active form of the compound. In certain embodiments, a prodrug is enzymatically metabolized by one or more steps or processes to the biologically, pharmaceutically or therapeutically active form of the compound.

Pharmaceutical Compositions and Modes of Administration [0274] Compounds provided herein are usually administered in the form of pharmaceutical compositions. Thus, provided herein are also pharmaceutical compositions that contain one or more of the compounds described herein or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, tautomer, stereoisomer, mixture of stereoisomers, prodrug, or deuterated analog thereof and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable vehicles selected from carriers, adjuvants and excipients. Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable vehicles may include, for example, inert solid diluents and fillers, diluents, including sterile aqueous solution and various organic solvents, permeation enhancers, solubilizers and adjuvants. Such compositions are prepared in a manner well known in the pharmaceutical art. See, e.g., Remington’s Pharmaceutical Sciences, Mace Publishing Co., Philadelphia, Pa.17th Ed. (1985); and Modern Pharmaceutics, Marcel Dekker, Inc.3rd Ed. (G.S. Banker & C.T. Rhodes, Eds.). [0275] The pharmaceutical compositions may be administered in either single or multiple doses. The pharmaceutical composition may be administered by various methods including, for example, rectal, buccal, intranasal and transdermal routes. In certain embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition may be administered by intra-arterial injection, intravenously, intraperitoneally, parenterally, intramuscularly, subcutaneously, orally, topically, or as an inhalant. [0276] One mode for administration is parenteral, for example, by injection. The forms in which the pharmaceutical compositions described herein may be incorporated for administration by injection include, for example, aqueous or oil suspensions, or emulsions, with sesame oil, corn oil, cottonseed oil, or peanut oil, as well as elixirs, mannitol, dextrose, or a sterile aqueous solution, and similar pharmaceutical vehicles. [0277] Oral administration may be another route for administration of the compounds described herein. Administration may be via, for example, capsule or enteric coated tablets. In making the pharmaceutical compositions that include at least one compound described herein or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, tautomer, stereoisomer, mixture of stereoisomers, prodrug, or deuterated analog thereof, the active ingredient is usually diluted by an excipient and/or enclosed within such a carrier that can be in the form of a capsule, sachet, paper or other container. When the excipient serves as a diluent, it can be in the form of a solid, semi-solid, or liquid material, which acts as a vehicle, carrier or medium for the active ingredient. Thus, the compositions can be in the form of tablets, pills, powders, lozenges, sachets, cachets, elixirs, suspensions, emulsions, solutions, syrups, aerosols (as a solid or in a liquid medium), ointments containing, for example, up to 10% by weight of the active compound, soft and hard gelatin capsules, sterile injectable solutions, and sterile packaged powders. [0278] Some examples of suitable excipients include lactose, dextrose, sucrose, sorbitol, mannitol, starches, gum acacia, calcium phosphate, alginates, tragacanth, gelatin, calcium silicate, microcrystalline cellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone, cellulose, sterile water, syrup, and methyl cellulose. The formulations can additionally include lubricating agents such as talc, magnesium stearate, and mineral oil; wetting agents; emulsifying and suspending agents; preserving agents such as methyl and propylhydroxy-benzoates; sweetening agents; and flavoring agents. [0279] The compositions that include at least one compound described herein or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, tautomer, stereoisomer, mixture of stereoisomers, prodrug, or deuterated analog thereof can be formulated so as to provide quick, sustained or delayed release of the active ingredient after administration to the subject by employing procedures known in the art. Controlled release drug delivery systems for oral administration include osmotic pump systems and dissolutional systems containing polymer-coated reservoirs or drug-polymer matrix formulations. Examples of controlled release systems are given in U.S. Patent Nos.3,845,770; 4,326,525; 4,902,514; and 5,616,345. Another formulation for use in the methods disclosed herein employ transdermal delivery devices (“patches”). Such transdermal patches may be used to provide continuous or discontinuous infusion of the compounds described herein in controlled amounts. The construction and use of transdermal patches for the delivery of pharmaceutical agents is well known in the art. See, e.g., U.S. Patent Nos. 5,023,252, 4,992,445 and 5,001,139. Such patches may be constructed for continuous, pulsatile, or on demand delivery of pharmaceutical agents. [0280] For preparing solid compositions such as tablets, the principal active ingredient may be mixed with a pharmaceutical excipient to form a solid preformulation composition containing a homogeneous mixture of a compound described herein or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, tautomer, stereoisomer, mixture of stereoisomers, prodrug, or deuterated analog thereof. When referring to these preformulation compositions as homogeneous, the active ingredient may be dispersed evenly throughout the composition so that the composition may be readily subdivided into equally effective unit dosage forms such as tablets, pills and capsules. [0281] The tablets or pills of the compounds described herein may be coated or otherwise compounded to provide a dosage form affording the advantage of prolonged action, or to protect from the acid conditions of the stomach. For example, the tablet or pill can include an inner dosage and an outer dosage component, the latter being in the form of an envelope over the former. The two components can be separated by an enteric layer that serves to resist disintegration in the stomach and permit the inner component to pass intact into the duodenum or to be delayed in release. A variety of materials can be used for such enteric layers or coatings, such materials including a number of polymeric acids and mixtures of polymeric acids with such materials as shellac, cetyl alcohol, and cellulose acetate. [0282] Compositions for inhalation or insufflation may include solutions and suspensions in pharmaceutically acceptable, aqueous or organic solvents, or mixtures thereof, and powders. The liquid or solid compositions may contain suitable pharmaceutically acceptable excipients as described herein. In some embodiments, the compositions are administered by the oral or nasal respiratory route for local or systemic effect. In other embodiments, compositions in pharmaceutically acceptable solvents may be nebulized by use of inert gases. Nebulized solutions may be inhaled directly from the nebulizing device or the nebulizing device may be attached to a facemask tent, or intermittent positive pressure breathing machine. Solution, suspension, or powder compositions may be administered, preferably orally or nasally, from devices that deliver the formulation in an appropriate manner. 8. Dosing and Treatment Regimens [0283] In one embodiment, the compounds described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, are used in the preparation of medicaments for the treatment of diseases or conditions in a patient that would benefit from inhibition or reduction of CB2R activity. Methods for treating any of the diseases or conditions described herein in a patient in need of such treatment, involves administration of pharmaceutical compositions that include at least one compound described herein or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, active metabolite, prodrug, or pharmaceutically acceptable solvate thereof, in therapeutically effective amounts to said patient. [0284] In certain embodiments, the compositions containing the compound(s) described herein are administered for prophylactic and/or therapeutic treatments. In certain therapeutic applications, the compositions are administered to a patient already suffering from a disease or condition, in an amount sufficient to cure or at least partially arrest at least one of the symptoms of the disease or condition. Amounts effective for this use depend on the severity and course of the disease or condition, previous therapy, the patient’s health status, weight, and response to the drugs, and the judgment of a healthcare practitioner. Therapeutically effective amounts are optionally determined by methods including, but not limited to, a dose escalation and/or dose ranging clinical trial. [0285] In prophylactic applications, compositions containing the compounds described herein are administered to a patient susceptible to or otherwise at risk of a particular disease, disorder or condition. Such an amount is defined to be a “prophylactically effective amount or dose.” In this use, the precise amounts also depend on the patient’s state of health, weight, and the like. When used in patients, effective amounts for this use will depend on the severity and course of the disease, disorder or condition, previous therapy, the patient’s health status and response to the drugs, and the judgment of a healthcare professional. In one aspect, prophylactic treatments include administering to a patient, who previously experienced at least one symptom of the disease being treated and is currently in remission, a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, in order to prevent a return of the symptoms of the disease or condition. [0286] In certain embodiments wherein the patient’s condition does not improve, upon the discretion of a healthcare professional the administration of the compounds are administered chronically, that is, for an extended period of time, including throughout the duration of the patient’s life in order to ameliorate or otherwise control or limit the symptoms of the patient’s disease or condition. [0287] In certain embodiments wherein a patient’s status does improve, the dose of drug being administered is temporarily reduced or temporarily suspended for a certain length of time (i.e., a “drug holiday”). In specific embodiments, the length of the drug holiday is between 2 days and 1 year, including by way of example only, 2 days, 3 days, 4 days, 5 days, 6 days, 7 days, 10 days, 12 days, 15 days, 20 days, 28 days, or more than 28 days. The dose reduction during a drug holiday is, by way of example only, by 10%-100%, including by way of example only 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, and 100%. [0288] Once improvement of the patient's conditions has occurred, a maintenance dose is administered if necessary. Subsequently, in specific embodiments, the dosage or the frequency of administration, or both, is reduced, as a function of the symptoms, to a level at which the improved disease, disorder or condition is retained. In certain embodiments, however, the patient requires intermittent treatment on a long-term basis upon any recurrence of symptoms. [0289] The amount of a given agent that corresponds to such an amount varies depending upon factors such as the particular compound, disease condition and its severity, the identity (e.g., weight, sex) of the subject or host in need of treatment, but nevertheless is determined according to the particular circumstances surrounding the case, including, e.g., the specific agent being administered, the route of administration, the condition being treated, and the subject or host being treated. [0290] In general, however, doses employed for adult human treatment are typically in the range of 0.01 mg-5000 mg per day. In one aspect, doses employed for adult human treatment are from about 1 mg to about 1000 mg per day. In one embodiment, the desired dose is conveniently presented in a single dose or in divided doses administered simultaneously or at appropriate intervals, for example as two, three, four or more sub-doses per day. [0291] In one embodiment, the daily dosages appropriate for the compound described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, are from about 0.01 to about 50 mg/kg per body weight. In some embodiments, the daily dosage or the amount of active in the dosage form are lower or higher than the ranges indicated herein, based on a number of variables in regard to an individual treatment regime. In various embodiments, the daily and unit dosages are altered depending on a number of variables including, but not limited to, the activity of the compound used, the disease or condition to be treated, the mode of administration, the requirements of the individual subject, the severity of the disease or condition being treated, and the judgment of the practitioner. [0292] Toxicity and therapeutic efficacy of such therapeutic regimens are determined by standard pharmaceutical procedures in cell cultures or experimental animals, including, but not limited to, the determination of the LD50 and the ED50. The dose ratio between the toxic and therapeutic effects is the therapeutic index and it is expressed as the ratio between LD50 and ED50. In certain embodiments, the data obtained from cell culture assays and animal studies are used in formulating the therapeutically effective daily dosage range and/or the therapeutically effective unit dosage amount for use in patients, including humans. In some embodiments, the daily dosage amount of the compounds described herein lies within a range of circulating concentrations that include the ED50 with minimal toxicity. In certain embodiments, the daily dosage range and/or the unit dosage amount varies within this range depending upon the dosage form employed and the route of administration utilized. [0293] In any of the aforementioned aspects are further embodiments in which the effective amount of the compound described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is: (a) systemically administered to the patient; and/or (b) administered orally to the patient; and/or (c) intravenously administered to the patient; and/or (d) administered by injection to the patient; and/or (e) administered topically to the patient; and/or (f) administered non-systemically or locally to the patient. [0294] In certain instances, it is appropriate to administer at least one compound or agent as described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, in combination with one or more other therapeutic agents. In certain embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition further comprises one or more anti-cancer agents. [0295] In one embodiment, the therapeutic effectiveness of one of the compounds described herein is enhanced by administration of an adjuvant (i.e., by itself the adjuvant has minimal therapeutic benefit, but in combination with another therapeutic agent, the overall therapeutic benefit to the patient is enhanced). Or, in some embodiments, the benefit experienced by a patient is increased by administering one of the compounds described herein with another agent (which also includes a therapeutic regimen) that also has therapeutic benefit. [0296] In one specific embodiment, a compound described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is co-administered with a second therapeutic agent, wherein the compound described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and the second therapeutic agent modulate different aspects of the disease, disorder or condition being treated, thereby providing a greater overall benefit than administration of either therapeutic agent alone. [0297] In any case, regardless of the disease, disorder or condition being treated, the overall benefit experienced by the patient is simply additive of the two therapeutic agents or the patient experiences a synergistic benefit. [0298] In certain embodiments, different therapeutically-effective dosages of the compounds disclosed herein will be utilized in formulating pharmaceutical composition and/or in treatment regimens when the compounds disclosed herein are administered in combination with one or more additional agent, such as an additional therapeutically effective drug, an adjuvant or the like. Therapeutically-effective dosages of drugs and other agents for use in combination treatment regimens is optionally determined by means similar to those set forth hereinabove for the actives themselves. Furthermore, the methods of prevention/treatment described herein encompasses the use of metronomic dosing, i.e., providing more frequent, lower doses in order to minimize toxic side effects. In some embodiments, a combination treatment regimen encompasses treatment regimens in which administration of a compound described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is initiated prior to, during, or after treatment with a second agent described herein, and continues until any time during treatment with the second agent or after termination of treatment with the second agent. It also includes treatments in which a compound described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and the second agent being used in combination are administered simultaneously or at different times and/or at decreasing or increasing intervals during the treatment period. Combination treatment further includes periodic treatments that start and stop at various times to assist with the clinical management of the patient. [0299] It is understood that the dosage regimen to treat, prevent, or ameliorate the disease(s) for which relief is sought, is modified in accordance with a variety of factors (e.g. the disease or disorder from which the subject suffers; the age, weight, sex, diet, and medical condition of the subject). Thus, in some instances, the dosage regimen actually employed varies and, in some embodiments, deviates from the dosage regimens set forth herein. [0300] For combination therapies described herein, dosages of the co-administered compounds vary depending on the type of co-drug employed, on the specific drug employed, on the disease or condition being treated and so forth. In additional embodiments, when co-administered with one or more other therapeutic agents, the compound provided herein is administered either simultaneously with the one or more other therapeutic agents, or sequentially. [0301] In combination therapies, the multiple therapeutic agents (one of which is one of the compounds described herein) are administered in any order or even simultaneously. If administration is simultaneous, the multiple therapeutic agents are, by way of example only, provided in a single, unified form, or in multiple forms (e.g., as a single pill or as two separate pills). [0302] The compounds or agents described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, as well as combination therapies, are administered before, during or after the occurrence of a disease or condition, and the timing of administering the composition containing a compound varies. Thus, in one embodiment, the compounds described herein are used as a prophylactic and are administered continuously to subjects with a propensity to develop conditions or diseases in order to prevent the occurrence of the disease or condition. In another embodiment, the compounds and compositions are administered to a subject during or as soon as possible after the onset of the symptoms. In specific embodiments, a compound described herein is administered as soon as is practicable after the onset of a disease or condition is detected or suspected, and for a length of time necessary for the treatment of the disease. In some embodiments, the length required for treatment varies, and the treatment length is adjusted to suit the specific needs of each subject. For example, in some embodiments, a compound described herein or a formulation containing the compound or agent is administered for at least 2 weeks, about 1 month to about 5 years. 8.

EXAMPLES [0325] The following examples are included to demonstrate specific embodiments of the disclosure. It should be appreciated by those of skill in the art that the techniques disclosed in the examples which follow represent techniques to function well in the practice of the disclosure, and thus can be considered to constitute specific modes for its practice. However, those of skill in the art should, in light of the present disclosure, appreciate that many changes can be made in the specific embodiments which are disclosed and still obtain a like or similar result without departing from the spirit and scope of the disclosure. Example 1: CB2R Binding Assays [0326] Putative CB2R modulators may be evaluated in CB2R binding assays using membranes from HEK-293 cells transfected with cDNAs encoding the human recombinant CB2R (Bmax = 4.7 pmol/mg protein) (Perkin-Elmer). These membranes are incubated with [3H]-(−)-cis-3-[2-hydroxy-4- (1,1-dimethylheptyl)phenyl]-trans-4-(3-hydroxypropyl)cyclohe xanol ([3H]CP-55,940) (0.084 nM/Kd = 0.31 nM for CB2R) as high-affinity ligand and displaced with 100 nM (R)-(+)-[2,3-dihydro- 5-methyl-3-(4-morpholinylmethyl)pyrrolo[1,2,3-de]-1,4-benzox azin-6-yl]-1-naphthalenylmethanone (WIN-55,212-2) as heterologous competitor for nonspecific binding (Ki = 2.1 nM for CB2R). Compounds are tested following the procedure described by the cell membrane manufacturer. CB2R binding assays are carried out with two different buffers: incubation buffer (Tris-HCl, 50 mM; MgCl2, 5 mM; CaCl 2 1 mM; BSA, 0.2% at pH 7.4) and washing buffer (Tris-HCl, 50 mM; NaCl 500 mM; BSA, 0.1% at pH 7.4). The assay mixture contained incubation buffer, 0.4 nM [3H]CP-55,940, test substances (concentrations from 0.001 to 10 μM), and 4 μg/sample membrane in a total assay volume of 200 μL. Assays are performed in duplicate and incubated for 120 min at 37 °C. After the incubation, the assay mixture is filtered through 96 GF/C filter plates (Perkin Elmer #6005174) using Perkin Elmer Filtermate Harvester, and then washed four times with ice-cold washing buffer. The filters are dried for 1 hour at 50°C and [3H] trapped on filter counted for radioactivity in Perkin Elmer Microscint 20 cocktail (#6013329) using Perkin Elmer MicroBeta2 Reader. The results are expressed as a percent inhibition of the control radioligand specific binding calculated using the following equation: %Inhibition=(1-(Assay well-Average_LC)/(Average_HC-Average_LC))x100%. Data are analyzed and IC50 is calculated using GraphPad Prism 5 and the model “log(inhibitor) vs. response -- Variable slope”. The binding affinity of the compounds is determined by using the Cheng and Prusoff equation Ki = IC50/(1+ [radioligand]/Kd). Example 2: CB2R cAMP Assay [0327] cAMP Hunter CHO-K-1 cell lines expressing human CB2R (Eurofins) are expanded from freezer stocks according to standard procedures. Cells are seeded in a total volume of 20 μL into white walled, 384‐well microplates and incubated at 37°C for the appropriate time prior to testing. cAMP modulation in agonist, inverse agonist or antagonist format was determined using the DiscoverX HitHunter cAMP XS+ assay (Eurofins). For agonist determination, cells are incubated with sample in the presence of EC80 forskolin to induce response. Media is aspirated from cells and replaced with 15 μL 2:1 HBSS/10mM Hepes: cAMP XS+ Ab reagent. Intermediate dilution of sample stocks is performed to generate 4X sample in assay buffer containing 4X EC80 forskolin.5 μL of 4X sample is added to cells and incubated at 37°C or room temperature for 30 or 60 minutes. Final assay vehicle concentration is 1%. For inverse agonist determination, cells were preincubated with sample in the presence of EC20 forskolin. Media was aspirated from cells and replaced with 15μL 2:1 HBSS/10mM Hepes: cAMP XS+ Ab reagent. Intermediate dilution of sample stocks was performed to generate 4X sample in assay buffer containing 4X EC20 forskolin.5 μL of 4X sample is added to cells and incubated at 37°C or room temperature for 30 or 60 minutes. Final assay vehicle concentration is 1%. For antagonist determination, cells were pre‐incubated with sample followed by agonist challenge at the EC80 concentration. Media is aspirated from cells and replaced with 10 μL 1:1 HBSS/Hepes: cAMP XS+ Ab reagent.5 μL of 4X compound is added to the cells and incubated at 37 °C or room temperature for 30 minutes.5 μL of 4X EC80 agonist is added to cells and incubated at 37 °C or room temperature for 30 or 60 minutes. EC80 forksolin was included. After appropriate incubation, assay signal is generated through incubation with 20 μL cAMP XS+ ED/CL lysis cocktail for one hour followed by incubation with 20 μL cAMP XS+ EA reagent for three hours at room temperature. Microplates are read following signal generation with a PerkinElmer Envision instrument for chemiluminescent signal detection. Compound activity is analyzed using CBIS data analysis suite (ChemInnovation, CA). For agonist mode assay, percentage activity is calculated using the following formula: % Activity = 100% x (1 - (mean RLU of test sample - mean RLU of MAX control) / (mean RLU of vehicle control - mean RLU of MAX control)). For inverse agonist mode assay, percentage activity is calculated using the following formula: % Inverse Agonist Activity =100% x ((mean RLU of test sample - mean RLU of EC 20 forskolin) / (mean RLU of forskolin positive control - mean RLU of EC 20 control)). For antagonist mode assay, percentage inhibition is calculated using the following formula: % Inhibition = 100% x (mean RLU of test sample - mean RLU of EC 80 control) / (mean RLU of forskolin positive control - mean RLU of EC 80 control). Data is analyzed and IC 50 is calculated using GraphPad Prism 5 and the model “log(inhibitor) vs. response -- Variable slope”. [0328] Illustrative binding affinities for representative compounds are described in Table 2 and Table 2A. The potencies are divided into three criteria: + means that IC50 is greater than 1000 nM; ++ means IC50 is between 100 nM and 999 nM; +++ means IC50 is below 100 nM. In some embodiments, compounds with IC50 designated “+” may have IC50s between 1 mM to 30 mM. Table 2. Blank means not tested Table 2A Example 3: In vitro Mixed Lymphocyte Reaction (MLR) Assay [0329] CD14 + monocytes were purified from peripheral blood mononuclear cells of healthy donors using EasySep™ Human Monocyte Isolation Kit (STEMCELL, Cambridge, MA) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Purified human monocytes were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% FBS (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) at 5 x 10 5 cells/mL in the presence of 20 ng/mL GM-CSF and 10 ng/mL IL-4 (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN) in 24-well plate for 7 days. For maturation of dendritic cells (DCs), 1 mg/mL lipopolysaccharides (LPS, ThermoFisher, Waltham, MA) was added for an additional 3 days of culture. Half of the medium was replenished with fresh medium with cytokines every 3 days. To characterize the monocyte-derived DCs (MoDCs), aliquots of the cells (10 5 cells in 100 ml buffer) were incubated with the fluorochrome-conjugated monoclonal antibodies (CD1a-FITC, CD83-Brilliant Violet 4, CD209-R-PE or CD14-APC; all from BD PharMingen, San Diego, CA) for 30 minutes on ice, washed, and analyzed using Attune NxT flow cytometer. For allogeneic mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR), human CD4 + T cells were purified from peripheral blood mononuclear cells of healthy donors using EasySep™ Human CD4 + T Isolation Kit (STEMCELL, Cambridge, MA) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. MLR was set up by co- culturing 50,000 CD4 + T cells/well with the monocytes-derived DCs (moDCs) at the ratio of 10 to 1 in 96-well plates with or without Compound 8 in the presence or absence of anti-PD-1 antibody nivolumab (1 µg/ml, InvivoGen, San Diego, CA) for 5 days. IFNγ was measured using Meso Scale Discovery (MSD) from the supernatant of the co-culture. [0330] FIGS.1A-B show proliferation and IFNγ expression of CD4 + T cells treated with Compound 8. As shown in FIGS.1A-B, the CB 2 R antagonist (Compound 8) treated CD4 + T cells exhibited enhanced T cell growth and IFNγ production compared to CD4 + T cells without treatment. [0331] Using the same method, MLR was performed on CD4 + T cells using SR144528 (SR, CB 2 R inverse agonist), AM630 (AM, CB 2 R antagonist), and MAB36551 (MAB, CB 2 R antibody), with or without anti PD-1 agents (nivolumab or pembrolizumab). FIG.1C-D show proliferation and IFNγ expression of CD4 + T cells treated with SR144528, AM630, and MAB36551, with or without nivolumab or pembrolizumab. As shown in FIGS.1C-D, each SR144528, AM630, and MAB36551 treated CD4 + T cells exhibited enhanced T cell growth and IFNγ production compared to CD4 + T cells without treatment (or treated with vehicle). Further, each SR144528, AM630, and MAB36551 treated CD4 + T cells exhibited even more enhanced T cell growth and IFNγ production in combination with pembrolizumab or nivolumab, showing synergistic increase in cell proliferation and IFNγ production. [0332] FIG.2A, shows total IFNγ expression of CD4 + T cells treated with Compound 8 with or without nivolumab (anti-PD-1). FIG.2B shows normalized (basal subtracted) IFNγ expression of CD4 + T cells treated with Compound 8 with or without nivolumab (anti-PD-1). FIG.2C is another representation of the data. FIGS.2A-C show that CD4 + T cells treated with the CB 2 R antagonist (Compound 8) and nivolumab (anti-PD-1) exhibited a synergistic increase in IFNγ production compared to CD4 + T cells treated with Compound 8 alone. The result also suggests that that CD4 + T cells treated with the CB 2 R antagonist (Compound 8) and nivolumab (anti-PD-1) would exhibit a synergistic increase in cell proliferation compared to CD4 + T cells treated with Compound 8 alone. Example 4: In vitro T cell Exhaustion (TCE) Assay [0333] CD3 + pan T cells were negatively isolated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells of healthy donors (AllCells, Alameda, CA). Approximately, 5x10 5 T cells were initially plated in 24 well plates in RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% FBS (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA). Cells were stimulated the same day (Day 0) with T-Activator CD3/CD28 dynabeads (ThermoFisher, Waltham, MA) following the manufacturer’s recommendations and treated with CB2 antagonist Compound 8 in the presence or absence of anti-PD-1 antibody nivolumab (30 µg/ml, InvivoGen, San Diego, CA).2-days after the first stimulation, cell culture supernatant was collected, cells were counted and washed, and beads were removed using a magnet. This was followed by a second, third and fourth round of 2-day stimulations with fresh batches of CD3/CD28 beads. In each stimulation step, the amount of supernatant collected and beads used, the number of viable cells plated and the concentrations of Compound 8 and anti-PD-1 were kept same. On Day 8, cells were incubated with the fluorochrome- conjugated monoclonal antibodies (APC mouse anti-human LAG-3 antibody, SB436 mouse anti- human TIM-3 antibody, PE mouse anti-human PD-1 antibody, SB600 mouse anti human CD4+ antibody, AlexaFluor700 anti-human CD8 + antibody; all from Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) for 30 minutes on ice, washed, and analyzed using Attune NxT flow cytometer to detect CD38, LAG3, TIM3 and PD-1 expression on CD4 + and CD8 + T cells. IL2 was measured using Meso Scale Discovery (MSD) from the supernatant of the cell culture. [0334] FIG.3A shows LAG-3 expression of CD4 + and CD8 + T cells treated with vehicle, Compound 8, nivolumab (anti-PD-1), and a combination of Compound 8 and nivolumab; TIM-3 expression of CD4 + and CD8 + T cells treated with vehicle, Compound 8, nivolumab (anti-PD-1), and a combination of Compound 8 and nivolumab; and PD-1 expression of CD4 + and CD8 + T cells treated with vehicle, Compound 8, nivolumab (anti-PD-1), and a combination of Compound 8 and nivolumab. As shown in FIG.3A, the CB 2 R antagonist (Compound 8) with or without anti-PD-1 (nivolumab) prevented T cell exhaustion (indicated by decreased expression of immune checkpoint proteins) of CD4 + and CD8 + T cells 8 days after stimulation with T cell activator compared to vehicle. [0335] TCE was performed on CD3 + , CD4 + , and CD8 + T cells T cells using individual CB2R modulators (Compund 8, SR144528, AM630, MAB36551) with or without anti-PD-1 compounds (pembrolizumab or nivolumab). Exhaustion markers tested included CD38, CTLA4, LAG3, PD-1, TIGIT, TIM-3, TOX, and IL2. FIGS.3B-E show expression of the exhaustion markers after CD4 + and CD8 + T cells treated with CB 2 R modulators (Compund 8, SR144528, AM630, MAB36551) with or without anti-PD-1 compounds (pembrolizumab or nivolumab). As shown in FIGS.3B-E, CB 2 R modulators with or without anti-PD-1 prevented T cell exhaustion (indicated by exhaustion markers) of CD3 + , CD4 + , and CD8 + T cells within 8 days after stimulation with T cell activator compared to CD3 + , CD4 + , and CD8 + T cells without treatment (or treated with vehicle). [0336] FIG.4A, shows IL2 expression of CD4 + and CD8 + T cells four, six, and eight days after stimulation with T-Activator CD3/CD28 dynabeads. FIG.4B shows IL2 expression of CD4 + and CD8 + T cells eight days after stimulation with T-Activator CD3/CD28 dynabeads in the presence of CB2R antagonist (Compound 8). FIG.4B show that the CB2R antagonist (Compound 8) prevents T cell exhaustion (indicated by increased expression of IL2) of CD4 + and CD8 + T cells 8 days after stimulation with T cell activator compared to vehicle. Example 5: In vitro NK cell Reaction Assay [0337] PBMCs were separated from whole blood of healthy donors by density gradient. NK cells were then isolated with the Easysep Human NK Cell Enrichment Kit (STEMCELL, Cambridge, MA) according to the manufacturer’s protocol, seeded at 2x10 5 /well in 96-well plate and cultured in complete RPMI medium (RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10% FBS, 2 mM L-glutamine, 100 U/mL penicillin, and 100 ug/mL streptomycin) in the presence or absence of Compound 8 for 3 days. Cells were then washed twice with the complete medium to get rid of Compound 8, counted and resuspended at 1x10 6 cells/mL with complete RPMI medium. Functional assay was set up by co- culturing 1x10 5 NK cells/well with 1x10 4 of carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester (CFSE)- prelabelled K562 cells at a ratio of 10 to 1 in 96-well plates for 24 hours. After centrifugation, supernatant was collected for IFNγ analysis by Meso Scale Discovery (MSD). The cell pellets were then resuspended in FACS buffer and stained with anti-CD56-PE and anti-CD107-FITC. The CD107a expression on CD3-CD56+ NK cells and Live-or-Dye™ Fixable Viability eFluor™ 506 Stains (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) were analyzed using Attune NxT flow cytometer. [0338] FIG.5A shows the cellular killing capacity of NK cells treated with Compound 8. FIG.5B shows the percentage of CD107a + (activated) NK cells treated with Compound 8. FIG.5C shows the expression of IFNγ of NK cells treated with Compound 8. FIGS.5A-C show that CB 2 R antagonist (Compound 8) enhances NK cell function (by virtue of activation, killing capacity, and IFNγ expression) compared to vehicle. Example 6: In vivo Tumor Growth Inhibition (TGI) Assay [0339] C57BL/6 inbred female mice, aged at 8-9 week, were purchased from Charles River. On the day of inoculation (Day 0), B16F10 or MC38 cells were harvested, washed and counted. Cells were re-suspended as single cell solution in PBS at a concentration of 5x106 cells/mL at the final step. Immediately, five hundred thousand (5x10 5 ) of B16F10 or MC 3 8 cells suspended in 0.1 mL PBS were injected in the right flank of C57BL/6 mice subcutaneously using 27G needles. When palpable, tumors were measured by a caliper and tumor volumes (mm 3 ) were calculated by length x width x height x 0.5236. Mice with the tumor size approximate to 100 mm 3 were randomly assigned into one of four groups (n=10). Each group received vehicle (BID), CB2R antagonists at 1 mg/kg (QD) and/or mouse anti-PD-1 (RMP1-14) at 5 mg/kg (Q2D), intraperitoneally. Tumor size and body weight were determined every 2-3 days. Percent tumor growth inhibition (TGI) was defined as the difference between the Median Tumor Volume (MTV) of a test group and control group, using the formula: % TGI = ((MTVcontrol-MTVtreated/MTVcontrol)) x 100. [0340] FIG.6A shows the effect of oral administration of vehicle, 1 mg/kg Compound 8, 4 mg/kg Compound 8, and 10 mg/kg Compound 8 on B16F10 derived tumor volume in 8-9 week female C57BL/6 mice measured by TGI assay. FIG.6B shows the effect of oral administration of vehicle, 1 mg/kg Compound 8, 4 mg/kg Compound 8, and 10 mg/kg Compound 8 on MC 3 8 derived tumor volume in 8-9 week female C57BL/6 mice measured by TGI assay. FIGS.6A-B show that oral administration of CB2R antagonist (Compound 8) inhibits B16F10 and MC 3 8 tumor growth in 8-9 week female C57BL/6 mice compared to vehicle. [0341] FIG.7A shows the effect of intraperitoneal administration of vehicle, 1 mg/kg Compound 8, 4 mg/kg Compound 8, and 10 mg/kg Compound 8 on B16F10 derived tumor volume in 8-9 week female C57BL/6 mice measured by TGI assay. FIG.7B shows the effect of intraperitoneal administration of vehicle, 1 mg/kg Compound 8, 4 mg/kg Compound 8, and 10 mg/kg Compound 8 on MC38 derived tumor volume in 8-9 week female C57BL/6 mice measured by TGI assay. FIGS. 7A-B show that intraperitoneal administration of CB 2 R antagonist (Compound 8) inhibits B16F10 and MC 3 8 tumor growth in 8-9 week female C57BL/6 mice compared to vehicle. [0342] FIG.8A, shows the effect of oral administration of vehicle and 4 mg/kg Compound 8, intraperitoneal administration of 5 mg/kg anti-PD-1 antibody, and combination of 4 mg/kg Compound 8 with 5 mg/kg anti-PD-1 antibody on B16F10 derived tumor volume in 8-9 week female C57BL/6 mice measured by TGI assay. FIG.8B shows the effect of oral administration of vehicle and 4 mg/kg Compound 8, intraperitoneal administration of 5 mg/kg anti-PD-1 antibody, and combination of 4 mg/kg Compound 8 with 5 mg/kg anti-PD-1 antibody on MC 3 8 derived tumor volume in 8-9 week female C57BL/6 mice measured by TGI assay. FIGS.8A-B show that oral administration of CB2R antagonist (Compound 8) inhibits B16F10 and MC 3 8 tumor growth in 8-9 week female C57BL/6 mice compared to vehicle, and the combination of Compound 8 with anti-PD-1 antibody synergistically inhibits B16F10 and MC38 tumor growth. [0343] FIG.9A shows the effect of oral administration of vehicle and 4 mg/kg Compound 8, intraperitoneal administration of 5 mg/kg anti-PD-1 antibody, and combination of 4 mg/kg Compound 8 with 5 mg/kg anti-PD-1 antibody on tumor-infiltrating immune cells in 8-9 week female C57BL/6 mice bearing B16F10 melanoma measured by flow cytometry. FIG.9A shows that oral administration of CB 2 R antagonist (Compound 8) significantly increases CD8+ T cell and NK infiltration in B16F10 tumor in 8-9 week female C57BL/6 mice compared to vehicle. Specifically, Compound 8 increases CD4+ and CD8+ T cells by 2-fold and 5.3-fold, respectively when compared to vehicle controls. Both CD4+ and CD8+ T cell populations further increase in number in the combination treatment with anti-PD-1 antibody by 5.7-fold and 10-fold, respectively. Compound 8 also significantly increases NK infiltration by 2.5-fold when used alone. NK cells further increase in the combination treatment by 4.9-fold. In the same experimental setting, Compound 8 reduces the numbers of immunosuppressive MDSCs by about 56% and normalizes the negative effect of anti-PD- 1 antibody on the MDSCs. FIG.9B shows the effect of oral administration of vehicle and 4 mg/kg Compound 8, intraperitoneal administration of 5 mg/kg anti-PD-1 antibody, and combination of 4 mg/kg Compound 8 with 5 mg/kg anti-PD-1 antibody on the expression of PD-1 and LAG-3 by CD8 + T cells in 8-9 week female C57BL/6 mice bearing B16F10 melanoma measured by flow cytometry. FIG.9B shows that oral administration of CB2R antagonist (Compound 8) significantly decreased expression of PD-1 among CD8+ T cells in B16F10 tumor in 8-9 week female C57BL/6 mice compared to vehicle. Specifically, Compound 8 increased the percentage of PD-1 + /CD8+ cells among the CD8+ by less than half when compared to vehicle controls. FIG.9B further shows that oral administration of CB 2 R antagonist (Compound 8) significantly decreased expression of LAG-3 among CD8 + T cells in B16F10 tumor in 8-9 week female C57BL/6 mice compared to vehicle. Specifically, Compound 8 decreased the percentage of LAG3 + /CD8+ cells among the CD8 + cells by less than half when compared to vehicle controls. [0344] Further, as shown in FIG.9B, the treatment with Compound 8 in combination with anti-PD-1 agent further decreased the expression of PD-1.The examples and embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes only and various modifications or changes suggested to persons skilled in the art are to be included within the spirit and purview of this application and scope of the appended claims.
