    Abstract: This invention describes the development of targeted small molecule inhibitors of the inv(16) fusion, the causative agent in ˜12% of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The inv(16) fusion results in expression of the CBF?-SMMHC fusion protein in the blood cells of afflicted patients. The present invention provides compounds which inhibit the function of both CBF? and the CBF?-SMMHC fusion. These compounds block the growth of an inv(16) leukemia cell line as well as increase its apoptosis, while showing minimal effects against non inv(16) cell lines. As a mechanism to develop inhibitors with selectivity for the CBF?-SMMHC fusion protein, the present invention further provides dimeric derivatives of these compounds which show both increased potency as well as selectivity for CBF?-SMMHC. These compounds show potent inhibition of an inv(16) leukemia cell line with minimal effects on non inv(16) cell lines.

    Abstract: Methods are disclosed for preventing toxic drug-drug interactions during combination cancer therapy with a drug that is an anti-ErbB3 agent, such as an anti-ErbB3 antibody, together with a drug that is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor and/or a drug that binds to alpha-1 acid glycoprotein (e.g., erlotinib). Health care practitioners obtaining any one of the drugs are warned that when co-administering the drug that is an anti-ErbB3 agent with either or both of a drug that is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor and a drug that binds to alpha-1 acid glycoprotein, at least one of the co-administered drugs should be administered using a reduced dosage to prevent toxicity. In a reduced dosage, the amount of drug administered per unit time is reduced as compared to a dose that would be administered if the drug was administered as monotherapy. The reduced dosage can be, for example, a reduced drug dose or a reduced drug dosing frequency, or both. Compositions useful in practicing the disclosed methods are also provided.
