Patent

CA 2676387

The invention provides a combination therapy for treating cancer and other neoplams including romidepsin and a proteasome inhibitor. When administered together, romidepsin and a proteasome inhibitor (e.g., bortezomib) interact synergistically to selectively kill malignant cells at low (nanomolar) concentrations. The effect is particularly pronounced in malignant hematological cells (e.g., leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma). The combination has also been found useful in treating bortezomib-resistant cancers and steroid-resistant cancers. The invention provides methods of killing malignant cells in vitro and in vivo. Pharmaceutical compositions, preparations, and kits including romidepsin and a proteasome inhibitor are also provided.

L'invention concerne une polythérapie pour le traitement du cancer et d'autres néoplasmes au moyen de romidepsine et d'un inhibiteur du protéasome. Lorsqu'ils sont administrés ensemble, la romidepsine et l'inhibiteur du protéasome (par ex., le bortézomib) interagissent de manière synergique pour tuer sélectivement les cellules malignes à des concentrations faibles (nanomolaires). L'effet est particulièrement prononcé dans les cellules hématologiques malignes (par ex., en cas de leucémie, de lymphome ou de myélome multiple). On a par ailleurs découvert que cette combinaison est utile pour traiter les cancers résistants au bortézomib et les cancers résistants aux stéroïdes. L'invention concerne également des méthodes pour tuer les cellules malignes in vitro et in vivo. Elle porte en outre sur des compositions pharmaceutiques, des préparations et des trousses comprenant de la romidepsine et un inhibiteur du protéasome.
