`
`SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
`
`The invention is based upon a variety of surprising and
`unexpected findings. It has been discovered, unexpectedly,
`that the agents useful according to the invention stimulate
`growth factor production by stromal cells. It also has been
`discovered, unexpectedly, that the agents useful according to
`the invention stimulate proliferation of primitive hemato-
`poietic progenitor cells, but do not stimulate directly the
`differentiation or proliferation of committed progenitor
`cells. It further has been discovered, unexpectedly, that the
`agents useful according to the invention can be administered
`at doses much lower than would have been expected accord-
`ing to the teachings of the prior art. Another unexpected
`finding is that the agents according to the invention can
`accelerate the time it takes to achieve hematopoietic cell
`recovery after treatment with an hematopoietic cell inhibitor.
`Another unexpected finding is that the agents useful accord-
`ing to the invention can at relatively low doses, restore
`normal levels of neutrophils at least as fast as the most
`successful commercially available product used worldwide
`for this purpose, except that the agents useful according to
`the invention can be used orally, whereas the commercially
`available product (which represents more than a billion
`dollar market) must be injected. These unexpected results
`have important therapeutic and experimental research impli-
`cations.
`
`According to one aspect of the invention, a method is
`provided for treating a subject to stimulate hematopoiesis in
`the subject. The invention involves administering to a sub-
`ject
`in need of such treatment an amount of an agent
`effective to increase the number of hematopoietic cells or
`mature blood cells in the subject, wherein the amount is less
`than 1 mg/kg body weight per day and wherein the agent is
`a compound of Formula I.
`
`The agents useful according to the invention are com-
`pounds of Formula I:

`BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
`
`The present invention relates to methods and products for
`producing increased numbers of hematopoietic cells, of
`restoring to preselected normal levels numbers of hemato-
`poietic cells, to therapies for treating deficiencies in hemato-
`poietic cells and to in vitro methodologies for culturing
`hematopoietic cells.
`PT-100 is a dipeptide consisting of valine-prolineboronic
`acid (ValboroPro) designed to interact with the cell surface
`receptor CD26. CD26, a type II transmembrane protein is
`expressed on the cell surface of a number of cell types,
`including lymphocytes (Marguet, D. et al., Advances in
`Neuroimmzmol. 3:209—215 (1993)), hematopoietic cells
`(Vivier, I. et al.,J. Immunol. 147:447—454 (1991); Bristol, et
`al.,J. Immunol. 149:367 (1992)) thymocytes (Dang, N. H. et
`al., J. Immunol. 147:2825—2832 (1991), Tanaka, T. et al., J.
`Immunol. 149:481—486 (1992), Darmoul, D. et al., J Biol.
`Chem. 267:4824—4833 (1992)),
`intestinal brush border
`membrane and endothelial cells. Cell surface associated
`
`CD26 is a sialoglycoprotein, with most of its mass on the
`outside of the cell.
`
`CD26 has been best characterized on peripheral T cells
`where it functions as a potent costimulatory signal for T cell
`activation. Its surface expression is upregulated upon T cell
`activation (Dong, R. P. et al., Cell 9:153—162 (1996),
`Torimoto, Y. et al.,J. Immunol 147:2514 (1991), Mittrucker,
`H-W. et al., Eur.JImmzm. 25:295—297 (1995), Hafler, D. A.
`et al,J. Immunol. 142:2590—2596 (1989), Dang, N. H. et al.,
`J. Immunol 144:409 (1990)). CD26 has also been identified
`in rodents as an important regulatory surface receptor in
`hematopoiesis and lymphoid development (Vivier, I. et al.,
`J. Immunol. 147:447—454 (1991)). The primary structure of
`CD26 is highly conserved between species (Ogata, S. et al.,
`J. Biol. Chem. 264:3596—3601 (1998)). In humans CD26
`seems to be involved in the regulation of thymocyte
`activation, differentiation and maturation (Dang, N. H. et al.,
`J. Immunol. 147:2825—2832 (1991); Kameoka, J. et al.,
`Blood 85:1132—1137 (1995)). We have evidence that CD26
`is expressed within the human and murine hematopoietic
`systems.
`CD26 is an ectoenzyme with activity identical to that of
`Dipeptidyl Peptidase IV (DPP-IV), a serine type exopepti-
`dase with high substrate specificity. It cleaves N-terminal
`dipeptides from proteins if the penultimate amino acid is
`proline, or in some cases alaninie (Fleischer, B. Immunol.
`Today 152180 (1994)). PT-100 is a potent
`inhibitor of
`DPP-IV activity.
`The prior art PCT published application WO94/03055
`teaches methods of producing increased numbers of hemato-
`poietic cells by administering inhibitors of DPP-IV. The
`teaching of this published application, however,
`is that
`dosages of at least 1 mg/kg body weight are necessary to
`achieve such hematopoietic cell increases. This published
`application also teaches that inhibitors are administered to
`mammals which have an established deficiency of hemato-

`wherein m is an integer between 0 and 10, inclusive; A and
`A1 are L-amino acid residues (for glycine there is no such
`distinction) such that the A in each repeating bracketed unit
`can be a different amino acid residue; the C bonded to B is
`in the L-configuration; the bonds between A and N, A1 and
`C, and between A1 and N are peptide bonds; and each X, and
`X2 is, independently, a hydroxyl group or a group capable of
`being hydrolysed to a hydroxyl group in aqueous solution at
`physiological pH. By “the C bonded to B is in the
`L-configuration” is meant that the absolute configuration of
`the C is like that of an L-amino acid.
`
`
`
`US 6,770,628 B2
`
`Thus, the
`
`group has the same relationship to the C as the —COOH
`group of an L-amino acid has to its (X carbon. In some
`embodiments, Aand A1 are independently proline or alanine
`residues;
`In is 0; X1 and X2 are hydroxyl groups;
`the
`inhibitor is L-Ala-L-boroPro; and the inhibitor is L-Pro-L-
`boroPro.
`In one important aspect of the invention, the subject has
`an abnormally low level of hematopoietic cells or mature
`blood cells and the agent is administered in an amount
`effective to restore levels of a hematopoietic cell-type or
`mature blood cell-type to a preselected normal or protective
`level. The agent preferably is administered to the subject in
`at least 2 doses in an 18 hours period. The invention has
`particularly important applications in the restoration of
`normal or protective levels of neutrophils, erythrocytes and
`platelets. The most preferred agent is ValBoroPro.
`According to another aspect of the invention, a method is
`provided for shortening or eliminating the time that a subject
`has an abnormally low level of hematopoietic or mature
`blood cells resulting from treatment with a hematopoietic
`cell inhibitor. An agent is administered to a subject in need
`of such treatment in an amount effective to increase the
`
`number of hematopoietic cells or mature blood cells in the
`subject, wherein the administration of the agent begins prior
`to or substantially simultaneous with administration of the
`hematopoietic cell inhibitor. The agents and the preferred
`agent are as described above. In one important embodiment,
`the hematopoietic cell inhibitor causes an abnormally low
`level of hematopoietic cells or mature blood cells in the
`subject and the agent is administered in an amount effective
`to restore levels of a hematopoietic cell type to a preselected
`normal or protective level. Preferably, the agent is admin-
`istered to the subject in at least 2 doses in an 18 hour period.
`In important embodiments, the agent is used to restore in the
`subject normal or protective levels of neutrophils, erythro-
`cytes or platelets. The preferred effective amount of age
