`
`human thrombus formation in the VWF HAI mice model, which has been previously described
`
`(Chen, et al., Nat Biotechnol. 2008, 26(1), 114-19). Purified human platelets were preincubated
`
`with various concentrations of the BTK inhibitors (0.1 µM, 0.5 µM, or I µM) or DMSO and then
`
`administered to VWF HAI mice, followed by laser-induced thrombus formation. The BTK

`The objective of this study was to evaluate in vivo thrombus formation in

`
`that supports human but not mouse platelet-mediated thrombosis, we evaluated the effects of
`
`Formula (II), CC-292, and ibrutinib on thrombus formation. These results show that Formula
`
`(II) had no significant effect on human platelet-mediated thrombus formation while ibrutinib was
`
`able to limit this process, resulting in a reduction in maximal thrombus size by 61 % compared

`with control. CC-292 showed an effect similar to ibrutinib. These results, which show reduced
`
`thrombus formation for ibrutinib at physiologically relevant concentrations, may provide some
`
`mechanistic background for the Grade 2: 3 bleeding events ( eg, subdural hematoma,
`

`
`GPVI platelet aggregation was measured for Formula (II) and ibrutinib.
`
`Blood was obtained from untreated humans, and platelets were purified from plasma-rich protein
`
`by centrifugation. Cells were resuspended to a final concentration of 350,000/µL in buffer
`
`containing 145 mmol/L NaCl, 10 mmol/L HEPES, 0.5 mmol/L Na2HPO4, 5 mmol/L KCl, 2

`
`(CVX) GPVI were prepared on the day of experimentation and added to platelet suspensions 5
`
`minutes (37 °C, 1200 rpm) before the induction of aggregation. Aggregation was assessed with
`
`a Chronolog Lumi-Aggregometer (model 540 VS; Chronolog, Havertown, PA) and permitted to
`

`
`Example 4 - Effects ofBTK Inhibition on Antibody-Dependent NK Cell Mediated Cytotoxicity
`
`Rituximab-combination chemotherapy is today's standard of care in
`
`CD20+ B-cell malignancies. Previous studies investigated and determined that ibrutinib
`
`antagonizes rituximab antibody-dependent cell mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) mediated by NK
`
`cells. This may be due to ibrutinib's secondary irreversible binding to interleukin-2 inducible
`
`tyrosine kinase (ITK) which is required for FcR-stimulated NK cell function including calcium
`
`mobilization, granule release, and overall ADCC. H. E. Kohrt, et al., Blood 2014, 123, 1957-60.

`
`In this example, the effects of Formula (II) and ibrutinib on NK cell
`
`function were evaluated in primary NK cells from healthy volunteers and CLL patients. The
`
`activation ofNK cells co-cultured with antibody-coated target cells was strongly inhibited by
`
`ibrutinib. The secretion ofIFN-y was reduced by 48% (p = 0.018) and 72% (p = 0.002) in
`
`cultures treated with ibrutinib at 0.1 and 1.0 µM respectively and NK cell degranulation was
`
`significantly (p = 0.002) reduced, compared with control cultures. Formula (II) treatment at 1
`
`µM, a clinically relevant concentration, did not inhibit IFN-y or NK cell degranulation.
`
`Rituximab-mediated ADCC was evaluated in NK cells from healthy volunteers as well as assays
`
`ofNK cells from CLL patients targeting autologous CLL cells. In both cases, ADCC was not
`
`inhibited by Formula (II) treatment at 1 µM. In contrast, addition of ibrutinib to the ADCC
`
`assays strongly inhibited the rituximab-mediated cytotoxicity of target cells, and no increase over
`
`natural cytotoxicity was observed at any rituximab concentration. This result indicates that the
`
`combination of rituximab and Formula (II) provides an unexpected benefit in the treatment of
`
`CLL.

`
`BTK is a non-receptor enzyme in the Tee kinase family that is expressed
`
`among cells of hematopoietic origin, including B cells, myeloid cells, mast cells and platelets,
`
`where it regulates multiple cellular processes including proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis,
`
`and cell migration. W. N. Khan, Immunol Res. 2001, 23, 147-56; A J. Mohamed, et al.,
`
`Immunol Rev. 2009, 228, 58-73; J.M. Bradshaw, Cell Signal. 2010, 22, 1175-84. Functional
`
`null mutations ofBTK in humans cause the inherited disease, X linked agammaglobulinemia,
`
`which is characterized by a lack of mature peripheral B cells. M. Vihinen, et al., Front Biosci.
`
`2000, 5, D917-28. Conversely, BTK activation is implicated in the pathogenesis of several B(cid:173)
`
`cell malignancies. S. E. Herman, etal., Blood 2011, 117, 6287-96; L. P. Kil, etal., Am. J Blood

`
`Immunol. 2012, 31, 119-32 (Erratum in: Int. Rev. Immunol. 2012, 31, 428). In addition, BTK(cid:173)
`
`dependent activation of mast cells and other immunocytes in peritumoral inflammatory stroma
`
`has been shown to sustain the complex microenvironment needed for lymphoid and solid tumor
`
`maintenance. L. Soucek, et al., Neoplasia 2011, 13, 1093-100; S. Ponader, et al., Blood 2012,
`
`119, 1182-89; M. F. de Rooij, et al., Blood 2012, 119, 2590-94. Taken together, these findings
`
`have suggested that inhibition of BTK may offer an attractive strategy for treating B-cell
`
`neoplasms, other hematologic malignancies, and solid tumors.

`
`Ibrutinib (PCI-32765, IMBRUVICA), is a first-in-class therapeutic BTK
`
`inhibitor. This orally delivered, small-molecule drug is being developed by Pharmacyclics, Inc.
`
`for the therapy of B-cell malignancies. As described above, in patients with heavily pretreated
`
`indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma (iNHL), mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), and CLL, ibrutinib
`
`showed substantial anti tumor activity, inducing durable regressions of lymphadenopathy and
`
`splenomegaly in the majority of patients. R.H. Advani, et al., J. Clin. Oncol. 31, 88-94 (2013);
`
`J.C. Byrd, et al., N Engl. J Med 2013, 369, 32-42; M. L. Wang, et al., N Engl. J Med 2013,
`
`369, 507-16. S. O'Brien, et al., Blood 2012, 119, 1182-89. The pattern of changes in CLL was
`
`notable. Inhibition ofBTK with ibrutinib caused rapid and substantial mobilization of malignant
`
`CLL cells from tissues sites into the peripheral blood, as described in J. A Woyach, et al., Blood
`
`2014, 123, 1810-17; this effect was consistent with decreased adherence of CLL to protective
`
`stromal cells. S. Ponader, et al., Blood 2012, 119, 1182-89; M. F. de Rooij, et al., Blood 2012,
`
`119, 2590-94. Ibrutinib has been generally well tolerated. At dose levels associated with total
`
`BTK occupancy, not dose-limiting toxicities were identified and subjects found the drug
`
`tolerable over periods extending to >2.5 years.
`
`H}~K~J,~WW33U
`
`Given the homology between BTK and interleukin-2 inducible tyrosine
`
`kinase (ITK), it has been recently confirmed that ibrutinib irreversibly binds ITK. J. A
`
`Dubovsky, et al., Blood 2013, 122, 2539-2549. ITK expression in Fe receptor (FcR)-stimulated
`
`NK cells leads to increased calcium mobilization, granule release, and cytotoxicity. D. Khurana,
`
`et al., J Immunol. 2007, 178, 3575-3582. As rituximab is a backbone of lymphoma therapy,
`
`with mechanisms of action including ADCC, as well as direct induction of apoptosis and
`
`complement-dependent cytotoxicity and FcR stimulation is requisite for ADCC, we investigated
`
`if ibrutinib or Formula (II) (lacking ITK inhibition) influenced rituximab' s anti-lymphoma
`
`activity in vitro by assessing NK cell IFN-y secretion, degranulation by CD107a mobilization,
`
`and cytotoxicity by chromium release using CD20+ cell lines and autologous patient samples
`
`with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL ).
`
`Formula (II) is a more selective inhibitor than ibrutinib, as shown
`
`previously. Formula (II) is not a potent inhibitor of Itk kinase in contrast to ibrutinib (see Table
`
`1). Itk kinase is required for FcR-stimulated NK cell function including calcium mobilization,
`
`granule release, and overall ADCC. As anti-CD20 antibodies like rituximab are standard of care

`
`drugs, often as part of combination regimens, for the treatment of CD20+ B-cell malignancies,
`
`the potential of ibrutinib or Formula (II) to antagonize ADCC was evaluated in vitro. We
`
`hypothesized that Btk inhibitor, Formula (II) which does not have activity against Itk, may
`
`preserve NK cell function and therefore synergize rather than antagonize rituximab-mediated
`
`ADCC. Rituximab-dependent NK-cell mediated cytotoxicity was assessed using lymphoma cell
`
`lines as well as autologous CLL tumor cells.
`
`Cell culture conditions were as follows. Cell lines Raji and DHL-4 were
`
`maintained in RPMI 1630 supplemented with fetal bovine serum, L-glutamine, 2-
`
`mercaptoethanol and penicillin-streptomycin at 37 °Cina humidified incubator. The HER18
`
`cells were maintained in DEM supplemented with fetal bovine serum, penicillin-streptomycin
`
`and. Prior to assay, HER18 cells were harvested using trypsin-EDTA, washed with phosphate(cid:173)
`
`buffered saline (PBS) containing 5% serum and viable cells were counted. For culture of
`
`primary target cells, peripheral blood from CLL patients was subject to density centrifugation to
`
`obtain peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). Cell preparations were washed and then
`
`subject to positive selection of CD5+CD19+ CLL cells using magnetic beads (MACS, Miltenyi
`
`Biotech). Cell preparations were used fresh after selection. NK cells from CLL patients and
`
`healthy volunteers were enriched from peripheral blood collected in sodium citrate anti(cid:173)
`
`coagulant tubes and then subject to density centrifugation. Removal of non NK cells was
`
`performed using negative selection by MACS separation. Freshly isolated NK cells were
`
`washed three times, enumerated, and then used immediately for ADCC assays.
`
`Cytokine secretion was determined as follows. Rituximab and
`
`trastuzumab-dependent NK-cell mediated degranulation and cytokine release were assessed
`
`using lymphoma and HER2+ breast cancer cell lines (DHL-4 and HER18, respectively). Target
`
`cells were cultured in flat-bottom plates containing 10 µg/mL of rituximab (DHL-4) or
`
`trastuzumab (HER18) and test articles (0.1 or 1 µM ibrutinib, 1 µM Formula (II), or DMSO
`
`vehicle control). NK cells from healthy donors were enriched as described above and then added
`
`to the target cells and incubated for 4 hours at 37 °C. Triplicate cultures were performed on NK
`
`cells from donors. After incubation, supernatants were harvested, centrifuged briefly, and then
`
`analyzed for interferon-y using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) (R&D
`
`Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA).

`
`lytic granules, and gating on NK cells (CD3-CD16+ lymphocytes). The percentage of CD107a

`
`In these experiments, addition of rituximab stimulated a 5- to 8-fold increase in cell lysis at 0.1
`
`and 1 µg/mL, compared with low (<20%) natural cytotoxicity in the absence ofrituximab. As
`
`previously reported, addition of 1 µM ibrutinib strongly inhibited the antibody-dependent lysis of
`
`target cells, with less than 20% cell lysis at all rituximab concentrations and no increase in
`
`ADCC with at higher rituximab concentrations. The difference between Formula (II) and
`
`ibrutinib was highly significant in this assay (p = 0.001).
`
`Ibrutinib is clinically effective as monotherapy and in combination with
`
`rituximab, despite inhibition of ADCC in vitro and in vivo murine models due to ibrutinib's
`
`secondary irreversible binding to ITK. Preclinically, the efficacy of therapeutics which do not
`
`inhibit NK cell function, including Formula (II), is superior to ibrutinib. Clinical investigation is
`
`needed to determine the impact of this finding on patients receiving rituximab as these results
`
`provide support for the unexpected property of Formula (II) as a better agent than ibrutinib to use
`
`in combination with antibodies that have ADCC as a mechanism of action.

`
`The results are shown in FIG. 2-7-2d. and FIG. ;;i,g _ _L~., and further illustrate
`the surprising properties of Formula (II) in comparison to ibrutinib. Because of the lack of
`
`activity of Formula (II) on Itk and Txk, no adverse effects on Thl 7 and Treg development was
`
`observed. Since ibrutinib inhibits both Itk and Txk, a profound inhibition of Thl 7 cells and an

`increase in Treg development is observed, which is comparable to the murine Itk/Txk double
`
`knock-out cells which were used as a control.
