  • Publication number: 20190070183
    Abstract: The invention relates to the co-administration of select proteasome and PI3K inhibitors is useful for treating c-Myc-overexpressing cancers, particularly hematological cancers such as aggressive B- and T-cell lymphomas. In exemplified embodiments, coadministration of a dual PI3K/CK-1 inhibitor with a proteasome inhibitor synergistically increases cell death of aggressive B- and T-cell lymphomas as well as multiple myeloma over the individual or additive effect of either or both agents. This synergistic effect is associated with the previously unknown inhibition of the kinase casein kinase 1 epsilon (CK-1?) by a PI3K inhibitor, such as TGR-1202. Accordingly, use of PI3K inhibitors that possess CK-1? inhibition in combination with proteasome inhibitors provides a new therapy regime for treating c-Myc-overexpressing cancers, and particularly hematological cancers.

    Abstract: The field of the present invention is that of fosfomycin formulations for parenteral administration, in particular for intravenous administration. Formulations of the prior art provide fosfomycin as a powder to be diluted directly prior to the administration. The aim of the invention is to provide a fosfomycin formulation for parenteral administration which is easier to produce and administer or which lowers the risk of puncture injuries for healthcare professionals and the health risks for the patients (for example due to contamination or incorrect dosages) by preventing additional processing steps. During the course of the invention, it was surprisingly shown that fosfomycin is much more stable in an aqueous solution than what is commonly assumed.
