  • Patent number: 12115171
    Abstract: Pharmaceutical compositions including an effective amount of an antiandrogen or androgen antagonist in combination with a Plk inhibitor and methods of use thereof for treating cancer are disclosed. Administration of the combination of the active agents can be effective to reduce cancer cell proliferation or viability in a subject with cancer to the same degree, or a greater degree than administering to the subject the same amount of either active agent alone. The active agents can be administered together or separately. Methods of selecting and treating subjects with cancers, particular prostate cancers including castration resistant prostate cancer, breast cancers, particularly androgen receptor positive breast cancers, and pancreatic cancers are also provided.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 9, 2022
    Date of Patent: October 15, 2024
    Assignee: MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
    Inventors: Michael B. Yaffe, Jesse C. Patterson
  • Publication number: 20230263783
    Abstract: An effective amount of one or more microtubule polymerization inhibitors is administered in combination with one or more polo-like kinase (Plk) inhibitors for treating cancer. Administration of the combination of the active agents can be effective to reduce cancer cell proliferation or viability in a subject with cancer to the same degree, or a greater degree, than administering to the subject the same amount of either active agent alone. The active agents can be administered together or separately. Methods of selecting and treating subjects with cancers are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20220127682
    Abstract: Certain molecular characteristics of cancer cells or tumors can be indicative of their sensitivity to various combination therapies. The cancer cells or tumors exhibiting such molecular profiles, such as upregulation of genes associated with mitosis or meiosis, can be sensitive to additive and more than additive effects of combination therapies. Methods for identifying, selecting, and/or treating cancer patients whose cancer is amenable to combination therapies including an antiandrogen or androgen antagonist in combination with a Plk inhibitor are disclosed. Administration of the combination of the active agents can reduce cancer cell proliferation or viability and/or tumor burden in a subject with cancer to the same degree, or a greater degree than administering to the subject the same amount of either active agent alone.
