BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates generally to the field of therapeutics for cancer and metabolic diseases. More specifically, the invention relates to inhibitors of glucosylceramide synthase (GCS) useful for the treatment of metabolic diseases, such as lysosomal storage diseases, either alone or in combination with enzyme replacement therapy, and for the treatment of cancer.
SUMMARY OF THE RELATED ART
Glucosylceramide synthase (GCS) is a pivotal enzyme which catalyzes the initial glycosylation step in the biosynthesis of glucosylceramide-base glycosphingolipids (GSLs) namely via the pivotal transfer of glucose from UDP-glucose (UDP-Glc) to ceramide to form glucosylceramide (See FIG. 1). GCS is a transmembrane, type III integral protein localized in the cis/medial Golgi. Glycosphingolipids (GSLs) are believed to be integral for the dynamics of many cell membrane events, including cellular interactions, signaling and trafficking Synthesis of GSL structures has been shown (see, Yamashita et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 1999, 96(16), 9142-9147) to be essential for embryonic development and for the differentiation of some tissues. Ceramide plays a central role in sphingolipid metabolism and downregulation of GCS activity has been shown to have marked effects on the sphingolipid pattern with diminished expression of glycosphingolipids. Sphingolipids (SLs) have a biomodulatory role in physiological as well as pathological cardiovascular conditions. In particular, sphingolipids and their regulating enzymes appear to play a role in adaptive responses to chronic hypoxia in the neonatal rat heart (see, El Alwanit et al., Prostaglandins & Other Lipid Mediators 2005, 78(1-4), 249-263).
GCS inhibitors have been proposed for the treatment of a variety of diseases (see for example, WO2005068426). Such treatments include treatment of glycolipid storage diseases (e.g., Tay Sachs, Sandhoffs, GM2 Activator deficiency, GM1 gangliosidosis and Fabry diseases), diseases associated with glycolipid accumulation (e.g., Gaucher disease; Miglustat (Zavesca), a GCS inhibitor, has been approved for therapy in type 1 Gaucher disease patients, see, Treiber et al., Xenobiotica 2007, 37(3), 298-314), diseases that cause renal hypertrophy or hyperplasia such as diabetic nephropathy; diseases that cause hyperglycemia or hyperinsulemia; cancers in which glycolipid synthesis is abnormal, infectious diseases caused by organisms which use cell surface glycolipids as receptors, infectious diseases in which synthesis of glucosylceramide is essential or important, diseases in which synthesis of glucosylceramide is essential or important, diseases in which excessive glycolipid synthesis occurs (e.g., atherosclerosis, polycystic kidney disease, and renal hypertrophy), neuronal disorders, neuronal injury, inflammatory diseases or disorders associated with macrophage recruitment and activation (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn's disease, asthma and sepsis) and diabetes mellitus and obesity (see, WO 2006053043).
In particular, it has been shown that overexpression of GCS is implicated in multi-drug resistance and disrupts ceramide-induced apoptosis. For example, Turzanski et al., (Experimental Hematology 2005, 33 (1), 62-72 have shown that ceramide induces apoptosis in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells and that P-glycoprotein (p-gp) confers resistance to ceramide-induced apoptosis, with modulation of the ceramide-glucosylceramide pathway making a marked contribution to this resistance in TF-1 cells. Thus, GCS inhibitors can be useful for treatment of proliferative disorders by inducing apoptosis in diseased cells.

DEFINITIONS
As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” means either a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt or a pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salt of a currently disclosed compound that may be administered without any resultant substantial undesirable biological effect(s) or any resultant deleterious interaction(s) with any other component of a pharmaceutical composition in which it may be contained.
As used herein, the term “prodrug” means a pharmacological derivative of a parent drug molecule that requires biotransformation, either spontaneous or enzymatic, within the organism to release the active drug. For example, prodrugs are variations or derivatives of the compounds of Formula I that have groups cleavable under certain metabolic conditions, which when cleaved, become the compounds of Formula I. Such prodrugs then are pharmaceutically active in vivo, when they undergo solvolysis under physiological conditions or undergo enzymatic degradation. Prodrug compounds herein may be called single, double, triple, etc., depending on the number of biotransformation steps required to release the active drug within the organism, and the number of functionalities present in a precursor-type form. Prodrug forms often offer advantages of solubility, tissue compatibility, or delayed release in the mammalian organism (See, Bundgard, Design of Prodrugs, pp. 7-9, 21-24, Elsevier, Amsterdam 1985 and Silverman,
The Organic Chemistry of Drug Design and Drug Action, pp. 352-401, Academic Press, San Diego, Calif., 1992). Prodrugs commonly known in the art include well-known acid derivatives, such as, for example, esters prepared by reaction of the parent acids with a suitable alcohol, amides prepared by reaction of the parent acid compound with an amine, basic groups reacted to form an acylated base derivative, etc. Of course, other prodrug derivatives may be combined with other features disclosed herein to enhance bioavailability. As such, those of skill in the art will appreciate that certain of the presently disclosed compounds having free amino, amido, hydroxy or carboxylic groups can be converted into prodrugs. Prodrugs include compounds having an amino acid residue, or a polypeptide chain of two or more (e.g., two, three or four) amino acid residues which are covalently joined through peptide bonds to free amino, hydroxy or carboxylic acid groups of the presently disclosed compounds.

Although specific embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described with reference to the preparations and schemes, it should be understood that such embodiments are by way of example only and merely illustrative of but a small number of the many possible specific embodiments which can represent applications of the principles of the present disclosure. Various changes and modifications will be obvious to those of skill in the art given the benefit of the present disclosure and are deemed to be within the spirit and scope of the present disclosure as further defined in the appended claims.
Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one having ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs. Although other compounds or methods can be used in practice or testing, certain preferred methods are now described in the context of the following preparations and schemes.
All pharmaceutically acceptable salts, prodrugs, tautomers, hydrates and solvates of the compounds presently disclosed are also within the scope of the present disclosure.
Presently disclosed compounds that are basic in nature are generally capable of forming a wide variety of different salts with various inorganic and/or organic acids. Although such salts are generally pharmaceutically acceptable for administration to animals and humans, it is often desirable in practice to initially isolate a compound from the reaction mixture as a pharmaceutically unacceptable salt and then simply convert the latter back to the free base compound by treatment with an alkaline reagent, and subsequently convert the free base to a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt. The acid addition salts of the base compounds can be readily prepared using conventional techniques, e.g., by treating the base compound with a substantially equivalent amount of the chosen mineral or organic acid in an aqueous solvent medium or in a suitable organic solvent such as, for example, methanol or ethanol. Upon careful evaporation of the solvent, the desired solid salt is obtained.
Acids which can be used to prepare the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts of the base compounds are those which can form non-toxic acid addition salts, i.e., salts containing pharmacologically acceptable anions, such as chloride, bromide, iodide, nitrate, sulfate or bisulfate, phosphate or acid phosphate, acetate, lactate, citrate or acid citrate, tartrate or bitartrate, succinate, maleate, fumarate, gluconate, saccharate, benzoate, methanesulfonate and pamoate [i.e., 1,1′-methylene-bis-(2-hydroxy-3-naphthoate)]salts.
Presently disclosed compounds that are acidic in nature, e.g., contain a COOH or tetrazole moiety, are generally capable of forming a wide variety of different salts with various inorganic and/or organic bases. Although such salts are generally pharmaceutically acceptable for administration to animals and humans, it is often desirable in practice to initially isolate a compound from the reaction mixture as a pharmaceutically unacceptable salt and then simply convert the latter back to the free acid compound by treatment with an acidic reagent, and subsequently convert the free acid to a pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salt. These base addition salts can be readily prepared using conventional techniques, e.g., by treating the corresponding acidic compounds with an aqueous solution containing the desired pharmacologically acceptable cations, and then evaporating the resulting solution to dryness, preferably under reduced pressure. Alternatively, they also can be prepared by mixing lower alkanolic solutions of the acidic compounds and the desired alkali metal alkoxide together, and then evaporating the resulting solution to dryness in the same manner as before. In either case, stoichiometric quantities of reagents are preferably employed in order to ensure completeness of reaction and maximum product yields of the desired solid salt.
Bases which can be used to prepare the pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts of the base compounds are those which can form non-toxic base addition salts, i.e., salts containing pharmacologically acceptable cations, such as, alkali metal cations (e.g., potassium and sodium), alkaline earth metal cations (e.g., calcium and magnesium), ammonium or other water-soluble amine addition salts such as N-methylglucamine-(meglumine), lower alkanolammonium and other such bases of organic amines.
Isotopically-labeled compounds are also within the scope of the present disclosure. As used herein, an “isotopically-labeled compound” refers to a presently disclosed compound including pharmaceutical salts and prodrugs thereof, each as described herein, in which one or more atoms are replaced by an atom having an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number usually found in nature. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into compounds presently disclosed include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorous, fluorine and chlorine, such as 2H, 3H, 13C, 14C, 15N, 18O, 17O, 31P, 32P, 18F, and 36Cl, respectively.
By isotopically-labeling the presently disclosed compounds, the compounds may be useful in drug and/or substrate tissue distribution assays. Tritiated (3H) and carbon-14 (14C) labeled compounds are particularly preferred for their ease of preparation and detectability. Further, substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium (2H) can afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability, for example increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements and, hence, may be preferred in some circumstances. Isotopically labeled compounds presently disclosed, including pharmaceutical salts and prodrugs thereof, can be prepared by any means known in the art.
Stereoisomers (e.g., cis and trans isomers) and all optical isomers of a presently disclosed compound (e.g., R and S enantiomers), as well as racemic, diastereomeric and other mixtures of such isomers are within the scope of the present disclosure.
The compounds, salts, prodrugs, hydrates, and solvates presently disclosed can exist in several tautomeric forms, including the enol and imine form, and the keto and enamine form and geometric isomers and mixtures thereof. Tautomers exist as mixtures of a tautomeric set in solution. In solid form, usually one tautomer predominates. Even though one tautomer may be described, all tautomers are within the scope of the present disclosure.
Atropisomers are also within the scope of the present disclosure. Atropisomers refer to compounds that can be separated into rotationally restricted isomers.
The present disclosure also provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising at least one presently disclosed compound and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The pharmaceutically acceptable carrier can be any such carrier known in the art including those described in, for example, Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, Mack Publishing Co., (A. R. Gennaro edit. 1985).

2-(3-(4-fluorophenyl)isothiazol-5-yl)propan-2-amine
To a stirred suspension of 4-fluorobenzamide (70.00 g, 503.1 mmol) in toluene (900 mL) was added chlorocarbonyl sulfenyl chloride (83.0 mL, 1.00 mol). The mixture was heated overnight at 60° C. and concentrated. The resulting tan solid was triturated with methylene chloride (200 mL), collected by suction filtration and rinsed with additional methylene chloride (4×70 mL). The crude product was impregnated onto silica (100 g) and chromatographed in a large filter funnel dry loaded with silica using a hexane/ethyl acetate gradient. The product 5(4-fluorophenyl)-1,3,4-oxathiazol-2-one was afforded as an off-white solid (55.98 g, 56%).
To a stirred solution of 5-(4-fluorophenyl)-1,3,4-oxathiazol-2-one (42.80 g, 217.1 mmol) in o-dichlorobenzene (600 mL) was added ethyl propiolate (66.0 mL, 651 mmol). The mixture was heated overnight at 135° C. and concentrated. The residual oil was purified by flash chromatography using a hexane/ethyl acetate gradient to afford ethyl 3-(4-fluorophenyl)isothiazole-5-carboxylate as a pale golden solid (17.35 g, 32%). The more polar, ethyl 3-(4-fluorophenyl)isothiazole-4-carboxylate isomer (generated in 57/43 ratio versus the desired product) was discarded.
To a stirred and cooled (0° C.) solution of ethyl 3-(4-fluorophenyl)isothiazole-5-carboxylate (38.50 g, 153.2 mmol) in THF (400 mL) was added a solution of methylmagnesium bromide in diethyl ether (3.0 M, 128 mL, 384 mmol), dropwise over 20 minutes. After another 1.5 hours at 0° C., the reaction was quenched by the slow addition of ethyl acetate (20 mL) and concentrated. The residue was taken up in aqueous NH4Cl (400 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (2×150 mL). The combined extracts were dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated. The resulting amber syrup was purified by flash chromatography using a hexane/ethyl acetate gradient to afford 243-(4-fluorophenyl)isothiazol-5-yl)propan-2-ol as soft, golden solid (29.02 g, 80%).
2-(3-(4-Fluorophenyl)isothiazol-5-yl)propan-2-ol (29.00 g, 122.2 mmol) was taken up in thionyl chloride (75 mL). The mixture was cooled (ice bath) briefly and stirred. After 4 hours the reaction was concentrated and the residue was partitioned between ethyl acetate (200 mL) and aqueous NaHCO3 (300 mL). The organic layer was combined with a backextract of the aqueous layer (ethyl acetate, 1×100 mL), dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated to afford a mixture of 5-(2-chloropropan-2-yl)-3-(4-fluorophenyl)isothiazole product and 3-(4-fluorophenyl)-5-(prop-1-en-2-yl)isothiazole elimination byproduct ( ̃63/39 ratio) as a dark amber oil (29.37 g). This material was used without purification in the next reaction.
To a stirred solution of the product of the previous step in DMSO (80 mL) was added sodium azide (14.89 g, 229.0 mmol). The mixture was heated at 50° C. overnight, diluted with ethyl acetate (250 mL) and washed with water (6×400 mL). The organic layer was dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated to afford a mixture of 5-(2-azidopropan-2-yl)-3-(4-fluorophenyl)isothiazole and 3-(4-fluorophenyl)-5-(prop-1-en-2-yl)isothiazole ( ̃56/44 ratio) as a dark amber oil (29.10 g). This material was used without purification in the next reaction.
The product of the previous step was combined with 10% palladium on carbon (50% water; 7.50 g) and taken up in methanol (350 mL). The stirred suspension was cycled between vacuum and a nitrogen purge three times. After an additional evacuation, the reaction was backfilled with hydrogen gas (balloon reservoir) and stirred overnight. The reaction was filtered through Celite. The filtrate was combined with methanol rinsings of the Celite and concentrated. The resulting dark amber oil purified by flash chromatography using a methylene chloride/methanol gradient to afford 2-(3-(4-fluorophenyl)isothiazol-5-yl)propan-2-amine as viscous, amber oil (14.23 g, 49% over 3 steps).
Several approaches are being used or pursued for the treatment of LSDs, most of which focus on enzyme replacement therapy for use alone in disease management. Numerous approved enzyme replacement therapies are commercially available for treating LSDs (e.g., Myozyme® for Pompe disease, Aldurazyme® for Mucopolysaccharidosis I, Cerezyme® for Gaucher disease and Fabrazyme® for Fabry disease). Additionally, the inventors have identified a number of small molecules for use alone in the management of LSDs. The therapeutic methods of the invention described herein provide treatment options for the practitioner faced with management of various lysosomal storage diseases, as described in detail below.
In certain aspects of the invention, the compounds of the present invention may be used to treat a metabolic disease, such as a lysosomal storage disease (LSD), either alone or as a combination therapy with an enzyme replacement therapy. In other aspects of the invention, the compounds of the present invention may be used to inhibit or reduce GCS activity in a sujbect diagnosed with a metabolic disease, such as an LSD, either alone or as a combination therapy with an enzyme replacement therapy. In other aspects of the invention, the compounds of the present invention may be used to reduce and/or inhibit the accumulation of a stored material (e.g., lysosomal substrate) in a subject diagnosed with a metabolic disease, such as an LSD. In certain embodiements of the foregoing aspects, the LSD is Gaucher (type 1, type 2 or type 3), Fabry, GM1-gangliosidosis or GM2-gangliosidoses (e.g., GM2 Activator Deficiency, Tay-Sachs and Sandhoff). Table 1 lists numerous LSDs and identifies the corresponding deficient enzyme that may be used as an ERT in the foregoing aspects of the invention.
In other scenarios it may be necessary to provide SMT to a patient whose condition requires the reduction of substrates in the brain and thus is not treatable by systemic administration of ERT. While direct intracerebroventricular or intathecal administration can reduce substrate levels in the brain, systemic administration of ERT is not amenable for LSD's with Central Nervous System (CNS) involvement due to its incapacity to cross the Blood Brain Barrier (BBB) and SMT may prove beneficial in patients having residual enzymatic activities in the CNS.
In accordance with the present invention, SMT is provided to a patient to treat a cancer and/or metabolic disease, such as, a lysosomal storage disease. The SMT may include one or more small molecules. The SMT includes administering to the patient compounds of the present invention. In particular embodiments, the compound is (S)-Quinuclidin-3-yl(2-(2-(4-fluorophenyl)thiazol-4-yl)propan-2-yl)carbamate or Quinuclidin-3-yl(2-(4′-fluoro-[1,1′-biphenyl]-3-yl)propan-2-yl)carbamate, or combinations thereof.
In certain embodiments, compounds of the invention, such as, for example, (S)-Quinuclidin-3-yl(2-(2-(4-fluorophenyl)thiazol-4-yl)propan-2-yl)carbamate and Quinuclidin-3-yl(2-(4′-fluoro-[1,1′-biphenyl]-3-yl)propan-2-yl)carbamate may be used for treatment of virtually any storage disease resulting from a defect in the glycosphingolipid pathway (e.g. Gaucher (i.e., type 1, type 2 type 3), Fabry, GM1-gangliosidosis, GM2-gangliosidoses (e.g., GM2 Activator Deficiency, Tay-Sachs and Sandhoff)). In a particularly preferred embodiment, (S)-Quinuclidin-3-yl(2-(2-(4-fluorophenyl)thiazol-4-yl)propan-2-yl)carbamate or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or prodrug thereof is used to inhibit and/or reduce the accumulation of Gb3 and/or lyso-Gb3 in a patient with Fabry disease, either alone or as a combination therapy with enzyme replacement therapy (see Examples). In a preferred embodiment, the enzyme replacement therapy includes administering alpha-galactosidase A to the Fabry patient. Indeed, the Examples below demonstrate that a GCS inhibitor of the invention effectively reduces Gb3 and lyso-Gb3 storage in a mouse model of Fabry disease, thus supporting its use as a viable approach for the treatment of Fabry disease. Furthermore, in vivo combination therapy data provided in the Examples strongly suggest that a combined therapeutic approach could be both additive and complementary.
In certain embodiments, compounds of the invention, such as, for example, (S)-Quinuclidin-3-yl(2-(2-(4-fluorophenyl)thiazol-4-yl)propan-2-yl)carbamate and Quinuclidin-3-yl(2-(4′-fluoro-[1,1′-biphenyl]-3-yl)propan-2-yl)carbamate may be used for reducing the level of GluCer and GluSph in the brain of a subject diagnosed with neuropathic Gaucher disease, either alone or in combination with ERT (e.g., glucocerebrosidase administration).
Dosage regimens for a small molecule therapy component of a combination therapy of the invention are generally determined by the skilled clinician and are expected to vary significantly depending on the particular storage disease being treated and the clinical status of the particular affected individual. The general principles for determining a dosage regimen for a given SMT of the invention for the treatment of any storage disease are well known to the skilled artisan. Guidance for dosage regimens can be obtained from any of the many well known references in the art on this topic. Further guidance is available, inter alia, from a review of the specific references cited herein. In certain embodiments, such dosages may range from about 0.5 mg/kg to about 300 mg/kg, preferably from about 5 mg/kg to about 60 mg/kg (e.g., 5 mg/kg, 10 mg/kg, 15, mg/kg, 20 mg/kg, 25 mg/kg, 30 mg/kg, 35 mg/kg, 40 mg/kg, 45 mg/kg, 50 mg/kg, 55 mg/kg and 60 mg/kg) by intraperitoneal, oral or equivalent administration from one to five times daily. Such dosages may range from about 5 mg/kg to about 5 g/kg, preferably from about 10 mg/kg to about 1 g/kg by oral, intraperitoneal or equivalent administration from one to five times daily. In one embodiment, doses range from about 10 mg/day to about 500 mg/day (e.g., 10 mg/day, 20 mg/day, 30 mg/day, 40 mg/day, 50 mg/day, 60 mg/day, 70 mg/day, 80 mg/day, 90 mg/day, 100 mg/day, 110 mg/day, 120 mg/day, 130 mg/day, 140 mg/day, 150 mg/day, 160 mg/day, 170 mg/day, 180 mg/day, 190 mg/day, 200 mg/day, 210 mg/day, 220 mg/day, 230 mg/day, 240 mg/day, 250 mg/day, 260 mg/day, 270 mg/day, 280 mg/day, 290 mg/day, 300 mg/day). A particularly preferred oral dose range is from about 50 mg to about 100 mg, wherein the dose is administered twice daily. A particular oral dose range for a compound of the present invention is from about 5 mg/kg/day to about 600 mg/kg/day. In a particular oral dose range for a compound of the present invention is from about 1 mg/kg/day to about 120 mg/kg/day, e.g., 1 mg/kg/day, 5 mg/kg/day, 10 mg/kg/day, 15 mg/kg/day, 20 mg/kg/day, 25 mg/kg/day, 30 mg/kg/day, 35 mg/kg/day, 40 mg/kg/day, 45 mg/kg/day, 50 mg/kg/day, 55 mg/kg/day or 60 mg/kg/day, 65 mg/kg/day, 70 mg/kg/day, 75 mg/kg/day, 80 mg/kg/day, 85 mg/kg/day, 90 mg/kg/day, 95 mg/kg/day, 100 mg/kg/day, 105 mg/kg/day, 110 mg/kg/day, 115 mg/kg/day or 120 mg/kg/day.
In certain embodiments, the invention relates to combination therapies of SMT using compounds of the invention and ERT therapy for the treatment of lysosomal storage diseases. A partial list of known lysosomal storage diseases that can be treated in accordance with the invention is set forth in Table 1, including common disease name, material stored, and corresponding enzyme deficiency (adapted from Table 38-4 of Kolodny et al., 1998, Id.).

Any method known to the skilled artisan may be used to monitor disease status and the effectiveness of a combination therapy of the invention. Clinical monitors of disease status may include but are not limited to organ volume (e.g. liver, spleen), hemoglobin, erythrocyte count, hematocrit, thrombocytopenia, cachexia (wasting), and plasma chitinase levels (e.g. chitotriosidase). Chitotriosidase, an enzyme of the chitinase family, is known to be produced by macrophages in high levels in subjects with lysosomal storage diseases (see Guo et al., 1995, J. Inherit. Metab. Dis. 18, 717-722; den Tandt et al., 1996, J. Inherit. Metab. Dis. 19, 344-350; Dodelson de Kremer et al., 1997, Medicina (Buenos Aires) 57, 677-684; Czartoryska et al., 2000, Clin. Biochem. 33, 147-149; Czartoryska et al., 1998, Clin. Biochem. 31, 417-420; Mistry et al., 1997, Baillieres Clin. Haematol. 10, 817-838; Young et al., 1997, J. Inherit. Metab. Dis. 20, 595-602; Hollak et al., 1994, J. Clin. Invest. 93, 1288-1292). Chitotriosidase is preferably measured in conjuction with angiotensin converting enzyme and non tartrate resistant acid phosphatase to monitor response to treatment of Gaucher patients.
Methods and formulations for administering the combination therapies of the invention include all methods and formulations well known in the art (see, e.g., Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 1980 and subsequent years, 16th ed. and subsequent editions, A. Oslo editor, Easton Pa.; Controlled Drug Delivery, 1987, 2nd rev., Joseph R. Robinson & Vincent H. L. Lee, eds., Marcel Dekker, ISBN: 0824775880; Encyclopedia of Controlled Drug Delivery, 1999, Edith Mathiowitz, John Wiley & Sons, ISBN: 0471148288; U.S. Pat. No. 6,066,626 and references cited therein; see also, references cited in sections below).
According to the invention, the following general approaches are provided for combination therapy in the treatment of lysosomal storage diseases. Each general approach involves combining enzyme replacement therapy with small molecule therapy in a manner consistent with optimizing clinical benefit while minimizing disadvantages associated with using each therapy alone.
In one embodiment of the invention, enzyme replacement therapy (alone or in combination with small molecule therapy) is administered to initiate treatment (i.e., to de-bulk the subject), and small molecule therapy is administered after the de-bulking phase to achieve and maintain a stable, long-term therapeutic effect without the need for frequent intravenous ERT injections. For example, enzyme replacement therapy may be administered intravenously (e.g. over a one to two hour period) once, on a weekly basis, once every two weeks, or once every two months, for several weeks or months, or longer (e.g., until an involved indicator organ such as spleen or liver shows a decrease in size). Moreover, the ERT phase of initial de-bulking treatment can be performed alone or in combination with a small molecule therapy. A small molecule therapeutic component is particularly preferred where the small molecule is compatible with oral administration, thus providing further relief from frequent intravenous intervention.
Alternating among ERT and SMT, or supplementing SMT with ERT as needed, provides a strategy for simultaneously taking advantage of the strengths and addressing the weaknesses associated with each therapy when used alone. An advantage of ERT, whether used for de-bulking and/or for more long-term care, is the much broader clinical experience available to inform the practitioner's decisions. Moreover, a subject can be effectively titrated with ERT during the de-bulking phase by, for example, monitoring biochemical metabolites in urine or other body samples, or by measuring affected organ volume. A disadvantage of ERT, however, is the frequency of the administration required, typically involving intravenous injection on a weekly or bi-weekly basis due to the constant re-accumulation of the substrate. The use of small molecule therapy to reduce the amount of or inhibit substrate accumulation in a patient can in turn reduce the administration frequency of ERT. For example, a bi-weekly enzyme replacement therapy dosing regimen can be offered an “ERT holiday” (e.g., using a SMT) so that frequent enzyme injections are not required therapy. Furthermore, treating a lysosomal storage disease with combination therapy can provide complementary therapeutic approaches. Indeed, as demonstrated in the Examples below, a combination therapy of SMT and ERT can provide significant improvements over either therapeutic platform alone. These data suggest that combination therapy using SMT and ERT can be both additive and complementary. In one embodiment, ERT may be used as a de-bulking strategy (i.e., to initiate treatment), followed by or simultaneously supplemented with SMT using a compound of the present invention. In another embodiment, a patient is first treated with SMT using a compound of the present invention, followed by or simultaneously supplemented with ERT. In other embodiments, a SMT is used to inhibit or reduce further accumulation of substrate (or re-accumulation of substrate if used after debulking with ERT) in a patient with a lysosomal storage disease, and optionally provided ERT as needed to reduce any further substrate accumulation. In one embodiment, this invention provides a method of combination therapy for treatment of a subject diagnosed as having a lysosomal storage disease comprising alternating between administration of an enzyme replacement therapy and a small molecule therapy. In another embodiment, this invention provides a method of combination therapy for treatment of a subject diagnosed as having a lysosomal storage disease comprising simultaneously administering an enzyme replacement therapy and a small molecule therapy. In the various combination therapies of the invention, it will be understood that administering small molecule therapy may occur prior to, concurrently with, or after, administration of enzyme replacement therapy. Similarly, administering enzyme replacement therapy may occur prior to, concurrently with, or after, administration of small molecule therapy.
In any of the embodiments of the invention, the lysosomal storage disease is selected from the group consisting of Gaucher (types 1, 2 and 3), Niemann-Pick, Farber, GM1-gangliosidosis, GM2-gangliosidoses (e.g., GM2 Activator Deficiency, Tay-Sachs and Sandhoff), Krabbe, Hurler-Scheie (MPS I), Hunter (MPS II), Sanfilippo (MPS III) Type A, Sanfilippo (MPS III) Type B, Sanfilippo (MPS III) Type C, Sanfilippo (MPS III) Type D, Marquio (MPS IV) Type A, Marquio (MPS IV) Type B, Maroteaux-Lamy (MPS VI), Sly (MPS VII), mucosulfatidosis, sialidoses, mucolipidosis II, mucolipidosis III, mucolipidosis IV, Fabry, Schindler, Pompe, sialic acid storage disease, fucosidosis, mannosidosis, aspartylglucosaminuria, Wolman, and neuronal ceroid lipofucsinoses.

In accordance with the invention, the SMT and/or ERT produce a diminution in at least one of the following stored materials; glucocerebroside, sphingomyelin, ceramide, GM1-ganglioside, GM2-ganglioside, globoside, galactosylceramide, dermatan sulfate, heparan sulfate, keratan sulfate, sulfatides, mucopolysaccharides, sialyloligosaccharides, glycoproteins, sialyloligosaccharides, glycolipids, globotriaosylceramide, O-linked glycopeptides, glycogen, free sialic acid, fucoglycolipids, fucosyloligosaccharides, mannosyloligosaccharides, aspartylglucosamine, cholesteryl esters, triglycerides, granular osmophilic deposits Saposins A and D, ATP synthase subunit c, NPC1 or NPC2.
In certain embodiments of the invention, the small molecule therapy comprises administering to the subject an effective amount of (S)-Quinuclidin-3-yl(2-(2-(4-fluorophenyl)thiazol-4-yl)propan-2-yl)carbamate (see FIG. 2A). In other embodiments, the small molecule therapy comprises administering to the subject an effective amount of Quinuclidin-3-yl(2-(4′-fluoro-[1,1′-biphenyl]-3-yl)propan-2-yl)carbamate (see FIG. 2B). The small molecule therapy may include admininstering to a subject one or more compounds. In certain embodiments, at least one of the compounds is a compound of the present invention, such as those shown in FIGS. 2A and/or 2B.
Enzyme replacement therapy can provoke unwanted immune responses. Accordingly, immunosuppressant agents may be used together with an enzyme replacement therapy component of a combination therapy of the invention. Such agents may also be used with a small molecule therapy component, but the need for intervention here is generally less likely. Any immunosuppressant agent known to the skilled artisan may be employed together with a combination therapy of the invention. Such immunosuppressant agents include but are not limited to cyclosporine, FK506, rapamycin, CTLA4-Ig, and anti-TNF agents such as etanercept (see e.g. Moder, 2000, Ann. Allergy Asthma Immunol. 84, 280-284; Nevins, 2000, Curr. Opin. Pediatr. 12, 146-150; Kurlberg et al., 2000, Scand. J. Immunol. 51, 224-230; Ideguchi et al., 2000, Neuroscience 95, 217-226; Potteret al., 1999, Ann. N.Y. Acad. Sci. 875, 159-174; Slavik et al., 1999, Immunol. Res. 19, 1-24; Gaziev et al., 1999, Bone Marrow Transplant. 25, 689-696; Henry, 1999, Clin. Transplant. 13, 209-220; Gummert et al., 1999, J. Am. Soc. Nephrol. 10, 1366-1380; Qi et al., 2000, Transplantation 69, 1275-1283). The anti-IL2 receptor (.alpha.-subunit) antibody daclizumab (e.g. ZenapaxTM), which has been demonstrated effective in transplant patients, can also be used as an immunosuppressant agent (see e.g. Wiseman et al., 1999, Drugs 58, 1029-1042; Beniaminovitz et al., 2000, N. Engl J. Med. 342, 613-619; Ponticelli et al., 1999, Drugs R. D. 1, 55-60; Berard et al., 1999, Pharmacotherapy 19, 1127-1137; Eckhoff et al., 2000, Transplantation 69, 1867-1872; Ekberg et al., 2000, Transpl. Int. 13, 151-159). Additional immunosuppressant agents include but are not limited to anti-CD2 (Branco et al., 1999, Transplantation 68, 1588-1596; Przepiorka et al., 1998, Blood 92, 4066-4071), anti-CD4 (Marinova-Mutafchieva et al., 2000, Arthritis Rheum. 43, 638-644; Fishwild et al., 1999, Clin. Immunol. 92, 138-152), and anti-CD40 ligand (Hong et al., 2000, Semin. Nephrol. 20, 108-125; Chirmule et al., 2000, J. Virol. 74, 3345-3352; Ito et al., 2000, J. Immunol. 164, 1230-1235).
Any combination of immunosuppressant agents known to the skilled artisan can be used together with a combination therapy of the invention. One immunosuppressant agent combination of particular utility is tacrolimus (FK506) plus sirolimus (rapamycin) plus daclizumab (anti-IL2 receptor.alpha.-subunit antibody). This combination is proven effective as an alternative to steroids and cyclosporine, and when specifically targeting the liver. Moreover, this combination has recently been shown to permit successful pancreatic islet cell transplants. See Denise Grady, The New York Times, Saturday, May 27, 2000, pages μl and μl 1. See also A. M. Shapiro et al., Jul. 27, 2000, “Islet Transplantation In Seven Patients With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus Using A Glucocorticoid-Free Immunosuppressive Regimen”, N. Engl. J. Med. 343, 230-238; Ryan et al., 2001, Diabetes 50, 710-719. Plasmaphoresis by any method known in the art may also be used to remove or deplete antibodies that may develop against various components of a combination therapy.
Immune status indicators of use with the invention include but are not limited to antibodies and any of the cytokines known to the skilled artisan, e.g., the interleukins, CSFs and interferons (see generally, Leonard et al., 2000, J. Allergy Clin. Immunol. 105, 877-888; Oberholzer et al., 2000, Crit. Care Med. 28 (4 Suppl.), N3-N12; Rubinstein et al., 1998, Cytokine Growth Factor Rev. 9, 175-181). For example, antibodies specifically immunoreactive with the replacement enzyme can be monitored to determine immune status of the subject. Among the two dozen or so interleukins known, particularly preferred immune status indicators are IL-1.alpha., IL-2, IL-4, IL-8 and IL-10. Among the colony stimulating factors (CSFs), particularly preferred immune status indicators are G-CSF, GM-CSF and M-CSF. Among the interferons, one or more alpha, beta or gamma interferons are preferred as immune status indicators.
In the sections which follow, various components that may be used for eight specific lysosomal storage diseases are provided (i.e., Gaucher (including types 1, 2 and 3), Fabry, Niemann-Pick B, Hunter, Morquio, Maroteaux-Lamy, Pompe, and Hurler-Scheie). In subsequent sections, further enabling disclosure for enzyme replacement therapy and small molecule therapy components of a combination therapy of the invention are provided.
Gaucher
As noted above, Gaucher's disease is caused by the deficiency of the enzyme glucocerebrosidase (beta-D-glucosyl-N-acylsphingosine glucohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.45) and accumulation of glucocerebroside (glucosylceramide). For an enzyme replacement therapy component of a combination therapy of the invention for the treatment of Gaucher's disease, a number of references are available which set forth satisfactory dosage regimens and other useful information relating to treatment (see Morales, 1996, Gaucher's Disease: A Review, The Annals of Pharmacotherapy 30, 381-388; Rosenthal et al., 1995, Enzyme Replacement Therapy for Gaucher Disease: Skeletal Responses to Macrophage-targeted Glucocerebrosidase, Pediatrics 96, 629-637; Barton et al., 1991, Replacement Therapy for Inherited Enzyme Deficiency-Macrophage-targeted Glucocerebrosidase for Gaucher's Disease, New England Journal of Medicine 324, 1464-1470; Grabowski et al., 1995, Enzyme Therapy in Type 1 Gaucher Disease: Comparative Efficacy of Mannose-terminated Glucocerebrosidase from Natural and Recombinant Sources, Annals of Internal Medicine 122, 33-39; Pastores et al., 1993, Enzyme Therapy in Gaucher Disease Type 1: Dosage Efficacy and Adverse Effects in 33 Patients treated for 6 to 24 Months, Blood 82, 408-416); and Weinreb et al., Am. J. Med.; 113(2):112-9 (2002).
In one embodiment, an ERT dosage regimen of from 2.5 units per kilogram (U/kg) three times a week to 60 U/kg once every two weeks is provided, where the enzyme is administered by intravenous infusion over 1-2 hours. A unit of glucocerebrosidase is defined as the amount of enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of one micromole of the synthetic substrate para-nitrophenyl-p-D-glucopyranoside per minute at 37° C. In another embodiment, a dosage regimen of from 1 U/kg three times a week to 120 U/kg once every two weeks is provided. In yet another embodiment, a dosage regimen of from 0.25 U/kg daily or three times a week to 600 U/kg once every two to six weeks is provided.
Since 1991, alglucerase (Ceredase®) has been available from Genzyme Corporation. Alglucerase is a placentally-derived modified form of glucocerebrosidase. In 1994, imiglucerase (Cerezyme®) also became available from Genzyme Corporation. Imiglucerase is a modified form of glucocerebrosidase derived from expression of recombinant DNA in a mammalian cell culture system (Chinese hamster ovary cells). Imiglucerase is a monomeric glycoprotein of 497 amino acids containing four N-linked glycosylation sites. Imiglucerase has the advantages of a theoretically unlimited supply and a reduced chance of biological contaminants relative to placentally-derived aglucerase. These enzymes are modified at their glycosylation sites to expose mannose residues, a maneuver which improves lysosomal targeting via the mannose-6-phosphate receptor. Imiglucerase differs from placental glucocerebrosidase by one amino acid at position 495 where histidine is substituted for arginine. Several dosage regimens of these products are known to be effective (see Morales, 1996, Id.; Rosenthal et al., 1995, Id.; Barton et al., 1991, Id.; Grabowski et al., 1995, Id.; Pastores et al., 1993, Id.). For example, a dosage regimen of 60 U/kg once every two weeks is of clinical benefit in subjects with moderate to severe disease. The references cited above and the package inserts for these products should be consulted by the skilled practitioner for additional dosage regimen and administration information. See also U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,236,838 and 5,549,892 assigned to Genzyme Corporation.
As noted above, Gaucher Disease results from a deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase (GC). In the most common phenotype of Gaucher disease (type 1), pathology is limited to the reticuloendothelial and skeletal systems and there are no neuropathic symptoms. See Barranger, Glucosylceramide lipidosis: Gaucher disease. In: Scriver C R B A, Sly W S, Valle D, editor. The Metabolic Basis of Inherited Disease. New York: McGraw-Hill. pp. 3635-3668 (2001). In neuropathic Gaucher disease (nGD), subdivided into type 2 and type 3 Gaucher disease, the deficiency of glucocerebrosidase (GC) causes glucosylceramide (GluCer; GL-1) and glucosylsphingosine (GluSph) to accumulate in the brain, leading to neurologic impairment. Type 2 Gaucher disease is characterized by early onset, rapid progression, extensive pathology in the viscera and central nervous system, and death usually by 2 years of age. Type 3 Gaucher disease, also known as subacute nGD, is an intermediate phenotype with varying age of onset and different degrees of severity and rates of progression. Goker-Alpan et al., The Journal of Pediatrics 143: 273-276 (2003). A recent development has produced the K14 1n1/1n1 mouse model of type 2 Gaucher disease (hereinafter, the “K14 mouse”); this mouse model closely recapitulates the human disease showing ataxia, seizures, spasticity and a reduced median lifespan of only 14 days. Enquist et al., PNAS 104: 17483-17488 (2007).
As in patients with nGD, several mouse models of the disease have increased levels of GluCer and GluSph in the brain due to the deficiency in GC activity. Liu et al., PNAS 95: 2503-2508 (1998) and Nilsson, J. Neurochem 39: 709-718 (1982). The “K14” mice display a neuropathic phenotype that shares many pathologic features with type 2 Gaucher disease, such as neurodegeneration, astrogliosis, microglial proliferation, and increased levels of GluCer and GluSph in specific brain regions. Enquist et al. (2007).
Clinical management of patients affected by nGD poses a challenge for treating physicians both because of the severity of type 2 disease and the inability of the current therapies to cross the blood brain barrier (BBB). Current treatment of non-nGD relies on the intravenous delivery of recombinant human glucocerebrosidase (Imiglucerase; CerezymeTM) to replace the missing enzyme or the administration of glucosylceramide synthase inhibitors to attenuate substrate (GL-1) production. However, these drugs do not cross the blood brain barrier, and thus are not expected to provide therapeutic benefit for nGD patients. Current small molecule glucosylceramide synthase inhibitors in the clinic are not likely to address the neuropathic phenotypes of nGD. An evaluation of a compound of the present invention, Quinuclidin-3-yl(2-(4′-fluoro-[1,1′-biphenyl]-3-yl)propan-2-yl)carbamate (hereinafter, “Gz161”), in the K14 mouse model of type 2 Gaucher disease demonstrated that it could indeed reduce brain GluCer and GluSph (see Examples 122-125). It also reduced brain neuropathology and extended the lifespan of this model. Moreover, a combined approach using both enzyme replacement and small molecule substrate reduction may represent a superior therapy for type 2 Gaucher disease.
Fabry
As noted previously, Fabry's disease is caused by the deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme alpha-galactosidase A. The enzymatic defect leads to systemic deposition of glycosphingolipids having terminal alpha-galactosyl moieties, predominantly globotriaosylceramide (GL3 or Gb3) and, to a lesser extent, galabiosylceramide and blood group B glycosphingolipids.
Several assays are available to monitor disease progression and to determine when to switch from one treatment modality to another. In one embodiment, an assay to determine the specific activity of alpha-galactosidase A in a tissue sample may be used. In another embodiment, an assay to determine the accumulation of Gb3 may be used. In another embodiment, the practitioner may assay for deposition of glycosphingolipid substrates in body fluids and in lysosomes of vascular endothelial, perithelial and smooth muscle cells of blood vessels. Other clinical manifestations which may be useful indicators of disease management include proteinuria, or other signs of renal impairment such as red cells or lipid globules in the urine, and elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate. One can also monitor anemia, decreased serum iron concentration, high concentration of beta-thromboglobulin, and elevated reticulocyte counts or platelet aggregation. Indeed, any approach for monitoring disease progression which is known to the skilled artisan may be used (See generally Desnick R J et al., 1995, .alpha.-Galactosidase A Deficiency: Fabry Disease, In: The Metabolic and Molecular Bases of Inherited Disease, Scriver et al., eds., McGraw-Hill, N.Y., 7.sup.th ed., pages 2741-2784). A preferred surrogate marker is pain for monitoring Fabry disease management. Other preferred methods include the measurement of total clearance of the enzyme and/or substrate from a bodily fluid or biopsy specimen. A preferred dosage regimen for enzyme replacement therapy in Fabry disease is 1-10 mg/kg i.v. every other day. A dosage regimen from 0.1 to 100 mg/kg i.v. at a frequency of from every other day to once weekly or every two weeks can be used.
Niemann-Pick B
As previously noted, Niemann-Pick B disease is caused by reduced activity of the lysosomal enzyme acid sphingomyelinase and accumulation of membrane lipid, primarily sphingomyelin. An effective dosage of replacement acid sphingomyelinase to be delivered may range from about 0.01 mg/kg to about 10 mg/kg body weight at a frequency of from every other day to weekly, once every two weeks, or once every two months. In other embodiments an effective dosage may range from about 0.03 mg/kg to about 1 mg/kg; from about 0.03 mg/kg to about 0.1 mg/kg; and/or from about 0.3 mg/kg to about 0.6 mg/kg. In a particular embodiment, a patient is administering acid sphingomyelinase in an escalating dose regimen at the following sequential doses: 0.1 mg/kg; 0.3 mg/kg; 0.6 mg/kg; and 1.0 mg/kg, wherein each dose of acid sphingomyelinase is administered at least twice, and each dose is administered at two week intervals, and wherein the patient is monitored for toxic side effects before elevating the dose to the next level (See U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2011/0052559.
Hurler-Scheie (MPS I)
Hurler, Scheie, and Hurler-Scheie disease, also known as MPS I, are caused by inactivation of alpha-iduronidase and accumulation of dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate. Several assays are available to monitor MPS I disease progression. For example, alpha-iduronidase enzyme activity can be monitored in tissue biopsy specimens or cultured cells obtained from peripheral blood. In addition, a convenient measure of disease progression in MPS I and other mucopolysaccharidoses is the urinary excretion of the glycosaminoglycans dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate (see Neufeld et al., 1995, Id.). In a particular embodiment, alpha-iduronidase enzyme is administered once weekly as an intravenous infusion at a dosage of 0.58 mg/kg of body weight.
Hunter (MPS II)
Hunter's disease (a.k.a. MPS II) is caused by inactivation of iduronate sulfatase and accumulation of dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate. Hunter's disease presents clinically in severe and mild forms. A dosage regimen of therapeutic enzyme from 1.5 mg/kg every two weeks to 50 mg/kg every week is preferred.
Morquio (MPS IV)
Morquio's syndrome (a.k.a. MPS IV) results from accumulation of keratan sulfate due to inactivation of either of two enzymes. In MPS IVA the inactivated enzyme is galactosamine-6-sulfatase and in MPS IVB the inactivated enzyme is beta-galactosidase. A dosage regimen of therapeutic enzyme from 1.5 mg/kg every two weeks to 50 mg/kg every week is preferred.
Maroteaux-Lamy (MPS VI)
Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome (a.k.a. MPS VI) is caused by inactivation of alactosamine-4-sulfatase (arylsulfatase B) and accumulation of dermatan sulfate. A dosage regimen of from 1.5 mg/kg every two weeks to 50 mg/kg every week is a preferred range of effective therapeutic enzyme provided by ERT. Optimally, the osage employed is less than or equal to 10 mg/kg per week. A preferred surrogate marker for MPS VI disease progression is roteoglycan levels.
Pompe
Pompe's disease is caused by inactivation of the acid alpha-glucosidase enzyme and accumulation of glycogen. The acid alpha-glucosidase gene resides on human chromosome 17 and is designated GAA. H. G. Hers first proposed the concept of inborn lysosomal disease based on his studies of this disease, which he referred to as type II glycogen storage disease (GSD II) and which is now also termed acid maltase deficiency (AMD) (see Hers, 1965, Gastroenterology 48, 625). In a particular embodiment, GAA is administered every 2 weeks as an intravenous infusion at a dosage of 20 mg/kg body weight.
Several assays are available to monitor Pompe disease progression. Any assay known to the skilled artisan may be used. For example, one can assay for intra-lysosomal accumulation of glycogen granules, particularly in myocardium, liver and skeletal muscle fibers obtained from biopsy. Alpha-glucosidase enzyme activity can also be monitored in biopsy specimens or cultured cells obtained from peripheral blood. Serum elevation of creatine kinase (CK) can be monitored as an indication of disease progression. Serum CK can be elevated up to ten-fold in infantile-onset patients and is usually elevated to a lesser degree in adult-onset patients. See Hirschhorn R, 1995, Glycogen Storage Disease Type II: Acid alpha-Glucosidase (Acid Maltase) Deficiency, In: The Metabolic and Molecular Bases of Inherited Disease, Scriver et al., eds., McGraw-Hill, N.Y., 7.sup.th ed., pages 2443-2464.
Enzyme Replacement Therapy
The following sections set forth specific disclosure and alternative embodiments available for the enzyme replacement therapy component of a combination therapy of the invention. Generally, dosage regimens for an enzyme replacement therapy component of a combination therapy of the invention are generally determined by the skilled clinician. Several examples of dosage regimens for the treatment of Gaucher's disease with glucocerebrosidase are provided above. The general principles for determining a dosage regimen for any given ERT component of a combination therapy of the invention for the treatment of any LSD will be apparent to the skilled artisan from publically available information, such as, for example, a review of the specific references cited in the sections for each specific LSD. An ERT may be administered to a patient by intravenous infusion. Intracerebroventricular and/or intrathecal infusion may be used (e.g., in addition to intravenous infusion) to administer ERT to a patient diagnosed with a lysosomal storage disease having CNS manifestations.
Any method known in the art may be used for the manufacture of the enzymes to be used in an enzyme replacement therapy component of a combination therapy of the invention. Many such methods are known and include but are not limited to the Gene Activation technology developed by Shire plc (see U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,968,502 and 5,272,071).
Small Molecule Therapy
The following section also sets forth specific disclosures and alternative embodiments available for the small molecule therapy component of a combination therapy of the invention. Dosage regimens for a small molecule therapy component of a combination therapy of the invention are generally determined by the skilled clinician and are expected to vary significantly depending on the particular storage disease being treated and the clinical status of the particular affected individual. The general principles for determining a dosage regimen for a given SMT component of any combination therapy of the invention for the treatment of any storage disease are well known to the skilled artisan. Guidance for dosage regimens can be obtained from any of the many well known references in the art on this topic. Further guidance is available, inter alia, from a review of the specific references cited herein.
Generally, compounds of the present invention, such as, for example, (S)-Quinuclidin-3-yl(2-(2-(4-fluorophenyl)thiazol-4-yl)propan-2-yl)carbamate and Quinuclidin-3-yl(2-(4′-fluoro-[1,1′-biphenyl]-3-yl)propan-2-yl)carbamate may be used in the combination therapies of the invention for treatment of virtually any storage disease resulting from a lesion in the glycosphingolipid pathway (e.g. Gaucher, Fabry, GM1-gangliosidosis and GM2-gangliosidoses (e.g., GM2 Activator Deficiency, Tay-Sachs and Sandhoff)). Likewise, aminoglycosides (e.g. gentamicin, G418) may be used in the combination therapies of the invention for any storage disease individual having a premature stop-codon mutation (i.e., nonsense mutation). Such mutations are particularly prevalent in Hurler syndrome. A small molecule therapy component of a combination therapy of the invention is particularly preferred where there is a central nervous system manifestation to the storage disease being treated (e.g., Sandhoff, Tay-Sachs, Niemann-Pick Type A, and Gaucher types 2 and 3), since small molecules can generally cross the blood-brain barrier with ease when compared to other therapies.
Preferred dosages of substrate inhibitors used in a combination therapy of the invention are easily determined by the skilled artisan. In certain embodiments, such dosages may range from about 0.5 mg/kg to about 300 mg/kg, preferably from about 5 mg/kg to about 60 mg/kg (e.g., 5 mg/kg, 10 mg/kg, 15, mg/kg, 20 mg/kg, 25 mg/kg, 30 mg/kg, 35 mg/kg, 40 mg/kg, 45 mg/kg, 50 mg/kg, 55 mg/kg and 60 mg/kg) by intraperitoneal, oral or equivalent administration from one to five times daily. Such dosages may range from about 5 mg/kg to about 5 g/kg, preferably from about 10 mg/kg to about 1 g/kg by oral, intraperitoneal or equivalent administration from one to five times daily. In one embodiment, doses range from about 10 mg/day to about 500 mg/day (e.g., 10 mg/day, 20 mg/day, 30 mg/day, 40 mg/day, 50 mg/day, 60 mg/day, 70 mg/day, 80 mg/day, 90 mg/day, 100 mg/day, 110 mg/day, 120 mg/day, 130 mg/day, 140 mg/day, 150 mg/day, 160 mg/day, 170 mg/day, 180 mg/day, 190 mg/day, 200 mg/day, 210 mg/day, 220 mg/day, 230 mg/day, 240 mg/day, 250 mg/day, 260 mg/day, 270 mg/day, 280 mg/day, 290 mg/day, 300 mg/day). A particularly preferred oral dose range is from about 50 mg to about 100 mg, wherein the dose is administered twice daily. A particular oral dose range for a compound of the present invention is from about 5 mg/kg/day to about 600 mg/kg/day. In a particular oral dose range for a compound of the present invention is from about 1 mg/kg/day to about 100 mg/kg/day, e.g., 1 mg/kg/day, 5 mg/kg/day, 10 mg/kg/day, 15 mg/kg/day, 20 mg/kg/day, 25 mg/kg/day, 30 mg/kg/day, 35 mg/kg/day, 40 mg/kg/day, 45 mg/kg/day, 50 mg/kg/day, 55 mg/kg/day or 60 mg/kg/day, 65 mg/kg/day, 70 mg/kg/day, 75 mg/kg/day, 80 mg/kg/day, 85 mg/kg/day, 90 mg/kg/day, 95 mg/kg/day or 100 mg/kg/day.
A rotating combination of therapeutic platforms (i.e., enzyme replacement and small molecule therapy) is preferred. However, subjects may also be treated by overlapping both approaches as needed, as determined by the skilled clinician. Examples of treatment schedules may include but are not limited to: (1) SMT followed by ERT; (2) ERT followed by SMT; and (3) ERT and SMT provided at about the same time. As noted previously, temporal overlap of therapeutic platforms may also be performed, as needed, depending on the clinical course of a given storage disease in a given subject.
Treatment intervals for various combination therapies can vary widely and may generally be different among different storage diseases and different individuals depending on how aggressively storage products are accumulated. For example, Fabry storage product accumulation may be slow compared to rapid storage product accumulation in Pompe. Titration of a particular storage disease in a particular individual is carried out by the skilled artisan by monitoring the clinical signs of disease progression and treatment success.
The various macromolecules that accumulate in lysosomal storage diseases are not uniformly distributed, but instead are deposited in certain preferred anatomic sites for each disease. However, an exogenously supplied enzyme is generally taken up by cells of the reticuloendothelial system and sorted to the lysosomal compartment where it acts to hydrolyze the accumulated substrate. Moreover, cellular uptake of therapeutic enzyme can be augmented by certain maneuvers to increase lysosomal targeting (see e.g. U.S. Pat. No. 5,549,892 by Friedman et al., assigned to Genzyme Corporation, which describes recombinant glucocerebrosidase having improved pharmacokinetics by virtue of remodeled oligosaccharide side chains recognized by cell surface mannose receptors which are endocytosed and transported to lysosomes).
Some treatment modalities target some affected organs better than others. In Fabry, for example, if ERT does not reach the kidney well enough for a satisfactory clinical outcome, SMT can be used to reduce the substrate levels in the kidney. As demonstrated in Example 112 and FIG. 6B, SMT effectively reduced Gb3 levels (i.e., the substrate accumulated in Fabry patients) in the urine of a Fabry mouse model to a greater extent than ERT. The kidneys are believed to be the major source of urine Gb3. In contrast, FIG. 6B shows ERT effectively reduced the Gb3 levels in the plasma to a greater extent than SMT. These results demonstrate that a combination therapy of ERT and SMT provides a complementary therapeutic strategy that takes advantage of the strengths and addresses the weaknesses associated with each therapy employed alone. SMT is able to cross the BBB, providing a powerful approach, when combined with ERT, for treating LSDs having CNS manifestations, such as Niemann Pick Type A and Neuropathic Gaucher disease (nGD). Moreover, substrate reduction by SMT combined with enzyme replacement address the storage problem at separate and distinct intervention points which may enhance clinical outcome.
It will be understood that reference to simultaneous or concurrent administration of two or more therapies does not require that they be administered at the same time, just that they be acting in the subject at the same time.

In vivo efficacy studies of small molecule therapy using (S)-Quinuclidin-3-yl(2-(2-(4-fluorophenyl)thiazol-4-yl)propan-2-yl)carbamate (S)-2-hydroxysuccinate salt on Fabry mouse model
Here, in vivo experiments are described using a GCS inhibitor in a Fabry mouse model and demonstrate that substrate reduction therapy (SRT) is equally effective at reducing the levels of both Gb3 and lyso-Gb3 in the plasma, kidney and urine of Fabry mice. The study was designed to evaluate whether substrate inhibition (i.e. “substrate reduction therapy”) using a compounds of the invention types could reduce the accumulation of the storage material globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) and lysoglobotriaosylceramide (lyso-Gb3). Recently it has been proposed that urinary lyso-Gb3 may represent a reliable biomarker of clinical relevance for Fabry disease (Aerts et al., PNAS USA 105:2812-2817 (2008); and Auray-Blais et al., Clin Chim Acta 411:1906-1914 (2010)). The metabolic origin of the lyso-Gb3 is not known and can conceivably be derived through either deacylation of Gb3 or through anabolic synthesis from glucosylsphingosine.
In FIG. 2, black arrows indicate demonstrated pathways, gray arrows are undocumented pathways. ERT using α-Galactosidase A is known to degrade both Gb3 and lyso-Gb3. Accordingly, SRT using a GCS inhibitor would be most effective at limiting lyso-Gb3 accumulation if the lyso-Gb3 is generated primarily through deacylation of Gb3, a GCS dependent pathway. These experiements demonstrate that SRT using GCS inhibitors in a mouse model of Fabry disease reduced both Gb3 and lyso-Gb3, thus supporting the use of compounds of the invention as viable therapeutic options for Fabry patients.
In the following experiments, mice dosed with GCS inhibitors at either  ̃60 mg/kg/day of (S)-Quinuclidin-3-yl(2-(2-(4-fluorophenyl)thiazol-4-yl)propan-2-yl)carbamate (S)-2-hydroxysuccinate salt (hereinafter “GZ 452”) or  ̃300 mg/kg/day of (1R,2R)-Octanoic acid[2-(2′,3′-dihydro-benzo[1,4] dioxin-6′-yl)-2-hydroxy-1-pyrrolidin-1-ylmethyl-ethyl]-amide-L-tartaric acid salt (hereinafter “GZ 638”) as a component of the pelleted food diet provided ad libitum. Lipid analysis was by ESI/MS as described in Marshall et al., PLoS ONE 5:e15033 (2010). As discussed in further detail below, treatment started when the mice were 3, 8 or 12 months of age to test the efficacy at different disease severities. Blood and urine was collected monthly and periodic tissue harvests provided materials to evaluate efficacy of the therapy (Gb3 and lyso-Gb3 levels). Previous studies demonstrated that earlier generation glucosylceramide synthase inhibitors (of the P4-like class) could delay the rate of Gb3 accumulation, however, as discussed below, treatment with Genz-452 could not only prevent or delay further accumulation but effected reductions of the absolute levels of both Gb3 and lyso-Gb3 in the tissues tested (liver, heart, urine, plasma). As further discussed below, the efficacy of SMT was affected by the age of the mice at the start of treatment. Generally, the older the mouse, the higher the levels of Gb3 stored and thus a longer period of treatment was required in order to affect similar therapeutic benefit (see FIG. 4). The experiments and results are described further below.
GCS Inhibitor Reduces Gb3 Levels In Fabry Mouse Visceral Tissue
In this experiment, Fabry mice were treated with GCS inhibitors in their diet for 4 months starting at 8 months old. We have previously reported that eliglustat tartrate (GZ 638) at 300 mg/kg/day (SRT GZ 638) is effective at inhibiting further accumulation of tissue Gb3 (as shown here by the non-significant changes in Gb3 relative to the starting levels UNT (start)). As shown in FIG. 3, a more potent GCS inhibitor, GZ 452, was also evaluated (at 60 mg/kg/day) (SRT-Gz452) and found not only to prevent further accumulation but also to significantly reduce stored Gb3 relative to the starting levels (UNT (start)). Age-matched wild-type levels (WT) are also shown. These results demonstrate that GZ 638 is a potent GCS inhibtor and effectively reduces Gb3 levels in visceral tissues of the Fabry mouse.
SRT Reduces Urine And Plasma Gb3 In Both Younger And Older Fabry Mice
In this experiment, Fabry mice were treated with GZ 452 in their diet (Rx:) for 2 or 4 months starting at either 3 or 8 months of age (Age:) as indicated in FIGS. 4A and 4B. The urine Gb3 levels of younger and older mice were equally responsive to SRT treatment, achieving  ̃90% reduction with 2 months of treatment. Plasma levels of Gb3 were slower to respond to treatment, with older mice requiring twice the treatment time of younger mice (4 vs. 2 months) to achieve  ̃50% reduction. These results demonstrate that GZ 638 effectively reduces Gb3 levels in urine and plasma in younger and older Fabry mice.
SRT Reduces both Gb3 and Lyso-Gb3 in Fabry Mouse Kidney
In this experiment, Fabry mice were treated with Genz-452 in their diet for 4 months starting at 8 months of age. As shown in FIG. 5, kidney tissue was analyzed for (A) Gb3 and (B) lyso-Gb3 from age-matched untreated Fabry mice (UNT), GZ 452-treated Fabry mice (SRT) and wild-type control mice (WT). SRT resulted in similar significant relative reductions in levels (60-70%) for both Gb3 and lyso-Gb3. These results demonstrate that GZ 638 effectively reduces both Gb3 and Lyso-Gb3 levels in kidney tissues of Fabry mice.
Example 112 
In vivo Efficacy Studies of Combination Therapy on Fabry Mouse Model Using GZ 452 and Alpha-galactosidase A
Fabry mice were used to test the in vivo efficacy of combining enzyme replacement therapy with small molecule therapy in a concurrent treatment format. The study was designed to evaluate whether substrate inhibition (i.e. “substrate reduction therapy”) using the GZ 452 compound could reduce re-accumulation of the storage material Gb3 and lyso-Gb3. The study protocol called for three distinct treatment groups of 3 month old male Fabry mice (FIG. 6A). The first group received intravenous injections of alpha-galactosidase A enzyme (ERT) at 1 mg/kg to reduce Gb3 levels and was repeated every 2 months. The second group received the same enzyme injections as group 1, but also were dosed with GZ 452 at  ̃60 mg/kg/day as a component of the pelleted diet. The third group received only the daily dosing of GZ 452 in their diet. A fourth group received no treatment to serve as vehicle controls and a fifth group of wild-type animals provided ‘normal’ Gb3 and lyso-Gb3 values. Monthly urine and blood collections and three monthly tissue harvests provide materials to evaluate relative efficacy of the therapies (FIG. 6A).
After 2 months (mice were 5 months old), plasma (FIG. 6B, panels A and C) and urine (FIG. 6B, panels B & D) were analyzed for Gb3 (FIG. 6B, panels A and B) and lyso-Gb3 (FIG. 6B, panels C and D). In plasma, ERT and SRT reduced both Gb3 (panel A) and lyso-Gb3 (panel C) levels, and combining ERT and SRT resulted in significant improvements over either therapeutic alone. Urine Gb3 levels were unaffected by ERT, but significantly reduced by SRT (panel B). Urine lyso-Gb3 was similarly reduced by all treatments (panel D), suggesting that urine Gb3 and lyso-Gb3 may originate from distinct sources. The results from these studies show that the SMT was effective at reducing Gb3 in the kidney and urine. ERT was more effective than SMT at reducing Gb3 in the plasma, however the most effective therapy was derived from combining the two therapies. SMT therapy alone or in combination with ERT was also capable of affecting (reducing accumulation) of lyso-Gb3.
Example 113
Gb3 Acyl Chain Isoform Profile
The relative abundance of the different carbon chain length amido-linked acyl groups was determined for Gb3 from plasma, urine and kidney of Fabry mice. As shown in FIG. 7, major plasma isoforms were C16:0 and C24:1. Urine and kidney isoform profiles were nearly identical, with C24:0 and C22:0 being the predominant chain lengths. These data are consistent with urine Gb3 coming predominantly from the kidney—probably through epidermal exosomal shedding. Correlating these results with those in FIG. 6, in which ERT reduced plasma and urine lyso-Gb3 but not urine Gb3, suggests that the lyso-Gb3 in urine is derived from plasma filtrate. This differentiation of source for urine Gb3 and lyso-Gb3, if also true for patients, may explain why lyso-Gb3 is thought to be a more accurate predictor of disease severity and treatment efficacy than urine Gb3.
Example 114
SRT but not ERT Significantly Delays Loss of Thermal Nociceptive Response 
Three month old Fabry mice were treated with GZ 452 in their diet (SRT), αgal once every 2 months (ERT), or a combination of the 2 treatments (E+S), as described above. After 6 months of combination therapy, the thermal nociceptive response time (latency) was evaluated by placing the mice on a 55° C. hotplate and recording the time to respond (i.e., a distinctive hind-paw flick). As shown in FIG. 8, after 7 months of treatment (10 month old mice) the ERT-only treated group was not significantly different to the untreated group (UNT). The SRT and combination treated groups had significantly shorter response times to the heat stimulus. These results demonstrate that SRT (but not ERT) delayed the loss of a thermal nociceptive response, a surrogate for the peripheral neuropathy often seen in Fabry patients.

nGD mouse model for in vivo studies of SMT using Gz161
K14 1n1/1n1 (abbreviated as K14) mice were obtained from Lund University (Enquist et al. (2007)) and bred under a protocol approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee. Pups obtained from heterozygote matings were tail clipped and genotyped within one day of birth (by P1). The DNA was extracted using a lysis buffer of 5 mM EDTA, 0.2% SDS, 200 mM NaCl, 100 mM Tris pH 8.0 supplemented with 0.25 mg/ml Proteinase K (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, Calif.), precipitated with 100% isopropanol and redissolved in 1× Tris EDTA buffer. The DNA was then used for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to determine the presence of the GC gene under the K14 keratin promoter (CRE) (Enquist et al. (2007)). To determine the Neomycin resistance site disruption of the murine glucocerebrosidase gene (NEO) we used a three primer approach: GC WT Fwd 5′-TGTTCCCCAACACAATGCTCTTT-3′; Rev 5′-TCTGTGACTCTGATGCCACCTTG-3′ and Neo Rev 5′-AAGACAGAATAAAACGCACGG GTG-3′ as previously described in Cabrera-Salazar et al., Experimental Neurology 225: 436-444 (2010).
Newborn mice received daily 5 mg/kg intraperitoneal injections of Quinuclidin-3-yl(2-(4′-fluoro-[1, l′-biphenyl]-3-yl)propan-2-yl)carbamate (hereinafter “GZ 161”) in a volume of 10 μl/gram of body weight starting at postnatal day 4. K14 mice and wild type littermates were humanely sacrificed at postnatal day 10 (pre-symptomatic) and at day 14 (humane endpoint) to evaluate glycosphingolipid (GSL) levels. Mice received a 150 mg/kg dose of pentobarbital (Euthasol, Virbac Inc, Fort Worth, Tex.) and were transcardially perfused with cold 0.9% NaCl solution. Brains were dissected and divided; one hemisphere was used for GSL analysis and the other was fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 96 hours and processed for histology.
To determine if further benefits could be achieved by prenatal exposure to GZ 161, a subset of pregnant K14 females received GZ 161 in food using a formulation calculated to provide 20 mg/kg/day during the final 5-7 days of gestation. Females receiving GZ 161 were switched to standard diet after delivery and the pups received daily IP injections of GZ 161 at a dose of 5 mg/kg (10 μl per gram of body weight) starting at P 1. A set of WT pups born to females receiving the drug or standard formula was sacrificed immediately after birth to determine whether in utero exposure to GZ 161 could reduce brain GSL levels.
Example 116
Glycosphingolipid Quantitation
Quantitative sphingolipid analysis was performed by liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) as previously described in Merrill et al., Methods 36: 207-224 (2005). Briefly, 10 μl of brain tissue homogenate (tissue weight/water:100 mg/ml) was extracted with 1.00 ml of an organic solvent mixture (97% acetonitrile, 2% methanol, and 1% acetic acid, v/v) and vortexed vigorously for 10 min. Extracted sphingolipids (GluCer and GluSph) were directly separated by hydrophilic liquid chromatography (Atlantis HILIC column, Waters Corp.) and analyzed by triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry (API 4000, Applied Biosystems/MDS SCIEX) and compared with sphingolipid standards (Matreya, LLC; Pleasant Gap, Pa.)
Example 117
Reformulation of recombinant human glucocerebrosidase
Recombinant human glucocerebrosidase (rhGC) was reformulated as previously described in Cabrera-Salazar et al. (2010). Briefly, rhGC was bound using a cation-exchange (CM Sepharose) and human serum albumin (HSA) was added to the eluate as a stabilizer. The formulation for ICV administration was 2 mg/ml rhGC in a 10 mM sodium phosphate buffer at pH 7.2 containing 135 mM sodium chloride, 5 mg/ml HSA and 0.01% polysorbate 80.
Example 118
Intracerebroventricular Injections 
An animal model of neuropathic Gaucher disease (nGD) identified as K14 were cryoanesthesized and received 2 μl bilateral intracerebroventricular (ICV) injections of either rhGC at 2 mg/ml or vehicle as previously described. (Cabrera-Salazar et al. (2010)) The injected pups were monitored for recovery and returned to the mother following the procedure.
Example 119
Histopathology
After genotype confirmation, animals were humanely sacrificed at 10 days of age, At this age K14 mice are asymptomatic. Mice received an intraperitoneal injection of 150 mg/kg sodium pentobarbital ((Euthasol, Virbac Inc, Fort Worth, Tex.) and were perfused by an intracardial infusion of chilled 0.9% sodium chloride. Brains were removed and post fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 72 hours. Tissue was transferred to PBS and paraffin embedded. Sagital sections 5 μm thick were cut and stained as described below. Gliosis and the presence of cells of the macrophage lineage were evaluated by means of glial fibrillary acidic protein staining and expression of CD68 and F4/80 pan-macrophage markers using the Leica Bond Max Immunostainer system (Leica Microsystems, Wetzlar, Germany).
GFAP staining: Paraffin sections were placed on mounting slides and processed using the Bond Polymer Refine IHC system (Leica Microsystems, Wetlzar, Germany) blocked for 10 minutes in serum-free protein block (Dako systems, Glostrup, Denmark), incubated for 30 minutes in a 1:1500 dilution of primary anti-GFAP antibody in Dako antibody diluent (Dako, Glostrup, Denmark), and stained using the Bond Polymer Refine detection kit (Leica Microsystems, Wetzlar, Germany).
F4/80 staining: Paraffin sections were placed on mounting slides and processed using the Bond Polymer Refine IHC system (Leica Microsystems, Wetlzar, Germany), incubated for 30 minutes in a 1:2500 dilution of rat anti-mouse F4/80 antibody (eBioscience, San Diego, Calif.) or Rat IgG2a (eBioscience, San Diego, Calif.) as an isotype control. Slides were then incubated with a 1:250 dilution of rabbit anti-rat secondary antibody (Vector laboratories, Burlingame, Calif.) and stained using the Bond Polymer Refine detection kit (Leica Microsystems, Wetzlar, Germany).
CD 68 staining: Paraffin sections were placed on mounting slides and processed using the Bond Polymer Refine IHC system (Leica Microsystems, Wetlzar, Germany), incubated for 30 minutes in a 1:2500 dilution of rat anti-mouse CD68 clone FA-11 antibody (AbD Serotec, Oxford, UK) or Rat IgG2a isotype control (AbD Serotec, Oxford, UK). Slides were then incubated with a 1:250 dilution of rabbit anti-rat secondary antibody (Vector laboratories, Burlingame, Calif.) and stained using the Bond Polymer Refine detection kit (Leica Microsystems, Wetzlar, Germany).
For each staining technique exposure-matched digital images were obtained from similar brain regions of each experimental group using the Aperio ScanScope XT system (Aperio Technologies, Vista, Calif.). Stained slides were digitalized in high resolution and six areas of interest were highlighted in each slide and analyzed independently by histomorphometry. Positively stained area and nuclei were determined and quantitative data were analyzed by a one-way analysis of variance followed by Tukey's multiple comparison test using the Graph Pad Prism V 4.0 (GraphPad Software, San Diego, Calif.). Differences between group means with p<0.05 were considered significant.
Example 119
Survival
K14 mice received daily intraperitoneal injections of GZ 161 at a dose of 5 mg/kg of body weight as described above. A separate cohort of animals also received ICV injections of GC at postnatal days 1, 2 and 3 followed by daily IP injections of GZ 161. Animals that reached weaning age received GZ 161 in a special chow designed to provide a dose of 60 mg/kg/day. All animals were monitored daily for the development of neurological complications. Mice were sacrificed when they reached a humane endpoint (inability to right within 10 seconds after being placed in lateral recumbence) by an injection of 150 mg/kg sodium pentobarbital (Euthasol, Virbac Inc, Fort Worth, Tex.). This time point was recorded as end of life and analyzed using Kaplan-Meier plots.

Statistical Analysis
Values shown correspond to means and error bars represent standard error of the mean. Comparisons between groups were analyzed by a one-way analysis of variance followed by Tukey's multiple comparison test. Comparison of substrate reduction in utero was analyzed by the unpaired t test with Welch's correction. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were analyzed using the log-rank test equivalent to the Mantel-Haenszel test. All statistical analyses were performed using GraphPad Prism v4.0 (GraphPad Software, San Diego, Calif.). Differences between group means with p<0.05 were considered significant.

Substrate Accumulation in K14 Mouse Brain
Before evaluating drug effects on brain lipids, we compared the time dependent changes in GluCer, GalCer and GluSph levels in the K14 mouse brain to those of a wild type (WT) mouse control. FIG. 9, panels A and B show that in WT mouse brain, the predominant GL-1 isomer in the first few days of life was GluCer; by postnatal day 14 (P14) the predominant isomer was GalCer. These results are consistent with those of a study in rat brain, which found that GluCer is synthesized at a higher rate during the first week of life and is followed by an increased synthesis of GalCer starting at P8 (Brenkert et al., Brain Research 36: 183-193 (1972)). FIG. 9, panel A also shows that in K14 mice GluCer was elevated 10-fold relative to WT mice and that this increase was sustained through the first 2 weeks of life until the mice died around P14.
In agreement with previous mouse models of neuropathic Gaucher disease (Liu et al., PNAS 95: 2503-2508 (1998)), FIG. 9, panel C shows that at birth the lysoglycosphingolipid GluSph was elevated >20-fold in the brains of the K14 mouse model relative to WT mice. This increase was sustained through the first 2 weeks of life and was even higher in animals sacrificed at end stage (FIG. 9, panel C). In WT littermates of the K14 mice, GluSph levels were below the threshold of detection (0.3 ng/mg of tissue). FIG. 9, panel D shows that these elevated glycosphingolipids and lysoglycosphingolipids in the K14 mouse did not appear to have an impact on brain weight (relative to that of WT mice). Given the known toxicity of GluSph, therapeutic strategies geared towards reducing the accumulation of these substrates in the K14 mouse brain might be expected to have an impact on the pathologic features of the disease and the lifespan of the animals.

Intraperitoneal Administration of GZ 161 Reduces GluCer and GluSph Levels in the Brains of K14 Mice
FIG. 10 shows that compared to vehicle-treated K14 mice at the humane endpoint (14-15 days of age), daily intraperitoneal (IP) administration of GZ 161 reduced brain levels of both GluCer and GluSph by >60%. K14 mice treated with GZ 161 were asymptomatic at this time point. Even though GZ 161 administration significantly reduced the levels of these glycosphingolipids, FIG. 10 shows that they nonetheless remained elevated several-fold over those of age-matched wild-type mice; GluSph was not detected in samples analyzed from WT or heterozygote littermates. The reduction of brain glycosphingolipids as a consequence of systemic drug administration strongly suggests that GZ 161 is both capable of crossing the blood brain barrier and inhibiting its target enzyme, GCS.

Intraperitoneal Administration of Gz 161 Reduces Microglial/Macrophage Staining Throughout the Brain of K14 Mice 
Cells of the myeloid lineage can be detected in the murine brain using antibodies to antigens such as F4/80 and CD68. F4/80 is a transmembrane glycoprotein found on ramified (quiescent) microglia and macrophages, while CD68 is a lysosomal protein expressed at relatively high levels in macrophages and activated (reactive) microglia, and at lower levels in ramified microglia. Increased F4/80 and CD68 staining in the brain may occur through recruitment of monocytes or microglial proliferation, and is a normal response to injury and inflammation. FIG. 11 shows qualitatively and quantitatively that compared to wild type mice at 10 days of age (P10), the K14 mouse brain has increased numbers of CD68+ cells in multiple locations (hippocampus, thalamus, brainstem, cerebellum). The greatest concentration of CD68+ cells was seen in the thalamus and brainstem, two sites that also show pathology in type 2 Gaucher patients. (Conradi et al., Acta Neuropathologica 65: 99-109(1984); Conradi et al., Acta Neuropathologica 82: 152-157 (1991); and Wong et al., Molecular Genetics and Metabolism 82: 192-207 (2004)). FIG. 11 also shows that systemic administration of GZ 161 reduces the numbers of CD68+ cells in all of these locations; treatment also reduced CD68+ cells in the olfactory bulb and frontal cortex (data not shown). Consistent with the CD68 histopathology, FIG. 12 shows increased F4/80 staining relative to WT animals in vehicle treated K14 mice at P10. Daily IP injections of GZ 161 reduced the numbers of F4/80+ cells in the thalamus and brainstem, but had marginal effects in other brain regions. Taken together with the CD68 data, these results suggest that systemic treatment of the K14 mouse with GZ 161 results in decreased numbers of macrophages/microglia in multiple brain regions.
Example 124
Intraperitoneal Administration of GZ 161 Reduces Gliosis in Several Brain Regions of K14 Mice
Astrocytes can undergo hypertrophy or proliferate in response to inflammation and neuronal damage or death, a process known as astrogliosis. Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) is an intermediate filament protein that is heavily expressed in activated (reactive) astrocytes, and can therefore be used to monitor astrogliosis. FIG. 13 shows that at P10 GFAP staining was increased compared to WT levels in several brain regions (hippocampus, thalamus, brainstem, cerebellum) of the K14 mouse, indicating the presence of reactive astrocytes. FIG. 13 also shows that systemic treatment of K14 mice with GZ 161 led to decreased GFAP staining in the hippocampus and cerebellum at P10; staining was also decreased in the olfactory bulb and frontal cortex (data not shown). Thus, these GFAP results are consistent with the above macrophage/microglial data demonstrating that the K14 mouse likely has an ongoing inflammatory process that can be attenuated to some degree by systemic administration of GZ 161.
Example 125
Intraperitoneal Administration of GZ 161 Increases Survival of K14 Mice
Given the positive effects of GZ 161 treatment on brain glycosphingolipids and histopathology, we asked whether these effects translated into increased survival of the
K14 mouse. FIG. 14 demonstrates that vehicle treated K14 mice have a median lifespan of 15 days, consistent with our previous findings in this mouse model (Cabrera-Salazar et al. (2010)). Systemic (IP) treatment of K14 mice with GZ 161 resulted in an extension in median lifespan to 18 days (p<0.0001), consistent with a benefit of the molecular and cellular effects of the drug in the brain shown above.
In previous experiments, it was shown in the K14 mouse that neonatal (P1-P3) intracerebroventricular injections of GC could extend median survival even further, viz., to 23 days (Cabrera-Salazar et al. (2010)). Because GC and GZ 161 both have the potential to decrease levels of the same glycosphingolipid, namely GluCer (GC by degrading GluCer; GZ 161 by inhibiting its synthesis) we also asked whether the combination of Gz161 and intracerebroventricular (ICV) administration of GC would provide survival benefit superior to that resulting from either individual agent. FIG. 14 demonstrates that the combination of ICV GC (at P1,2,3) and daily IP Gz161 led to a median survival of 26 days, significantly greater than GZ 161 alone or ICV GC (p=0.0007). Thus, systemic administration of GZ 161 appears to be additive to ICV GC, and provides additional survival benefit.
Example 126
Prenatal Administration of GZ 161 Fails to Increase Survival of K14 Mice
Because the GluSph levels in the K14 mouse brain were found to be elevated at least 10-fold over normal at P1, and it has been documented that GluSph is elevated in the brains of mice and humans affected by nGD even prenatally (Orvisky et al., Pediatric Research 48: 233-237 (2000)), it was investigated whether a survival advantage could be gained by treating K14 mice with GZ 161 in utero. FIG. 15 shows that treating WT mouse dams with GZ 161 led to an  ̃5-fold decrease in GluCer levels in the newborn mouse brain (P0), suggesting that GZ 161 could cross the blood/placental barrier. However, giving K14 dams GZ 161 and then treating the resulting pups IP with GZ 161 failed to extend survival beyond that of mice given systemic GZ 161 postnatally alone (18 days) (FIGS. 14 and 16). These data are thus consistent with the results described in FIG. 14, and imply that although GZ 161 can effect reductions in glycosphingolipids and neuropathology, the current treatment regime is insufficient to rescue the CNS. These results are consistent with our previous results in this model using intracerebroventricular injections of recombinant human glucocerebrosidase (Cabrera-Salazar et al. (2010)), and together suggest that more robust and continuous depletion of glycosphingolipids such as GluCer will be necessary to improve survival further.
These data show both qualitatively and quantitatively that systemic (IP) administration of GZ 161 to neonatal K14 mice significantly reduces substrate load, ameliorates the pathological features of the disease and increases median lifespan. When combined with ICV-delivered rhGC, systemic administration of GZ 161 resulted in additive increases in lifespan, implying that such a combination might be more efficacious than either monotherapy alone in nGD patients. Given the implications of these studies that GZ 161 can apparently cross the BBB and inhibit its target enzyme, glucosylceramide synthase, it is reasonable to assume that this molecule could also be used to treat other LSDs resulting from a buildup of substrates downstream from GluCer.
It is important to note that in the current studies, GZ 161 was administered to K14 mice in a time frame in which GluCer and GluSph were being produced in the developing mouse brain at relatively high levels compared to WT mice (FIG. 9); Brenkert et al., 1972). Daily IP treatment with GZ 161 successfully reduced, but did not normalize GluCer and GluSph levels in the K14 brain (FIG. 10). There are several lines of evidence suggesting that GluSph and other lysosphingolipids such as galactosyl sphingosine may contribute to CNS pathology by initiating the production of inflammatory mediators Giri et al., Journal of lipid research 47: 1478-1492 (2006) and Gräler et al., Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids 1582: 168-174 (2002). The ability of GZ 161 to decrease GluSph levels and concurrently result in decreased macrophage/microglial and astrocyte staining (FIGS. 11-13) is consistent with this hypothesis. Because GluSph also has known neurotoxic properties (Schueler et al., Neurobiology of Disease 14: 595-601 (2003); Orvisky et al., Molecular Genetics and Metabolism 76: 262-270 (2002); Sun et al., Hum Mol Genet 19: 1088-1097 (2010); and Pelled et al., Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease 23: 175-184 (2000)), the inability of GZ 161 treatment to normalize GluSph levels is consistent with GluSph as a potential contributor to the early death seen in this model.
Taken together, the preclinical results in the K14 mouse model shown here suggest that administration of GZ 161 may mitigate disease progression and neurologic symptoms in type 2 and type 3 Gaucher disease patients. However, it is difficult to predict the potential benefits of such a therapeutic approach in symptomatic type 2 patients since it is known that their brains contain very high levels of GluSph that date back to prenatal life. Goker-Alpan et al., The Journal of Pediatrics 143: 273-276 (2003). Type 3 Gaucher disease may be more amenable to treatment since the brain levels of GluSph are lower (Nilsson, J Neurochem 39: 709-718 (1982), the progression of the disease is slower despite being part of a phenotypic continuum (Goker-Alpan et al. (2003)), and in some cases the patients can be identified by mutational analysis before the onset of the neuropathic phenotype (Ida et al., Human Genetics 105: 120-126 (1999)). Based on the current results, it would appear that an early, aggressive approach will be needed to treat these patients. Small molecule inhibitors of glucosylceramide synthase may represent one arm of a comprehensive approach.

SMT of Male and Female Fabry Mice Treated with GZ 452, GZ 161 and GZ 638
Fabry mice began treatment at  ̃8 months old and were treated for 4 months with: 60 mg/kg/day GZ 452 (Fab 452@ 60 mkd), 120 mg/kg/day GZ 452 (Fab 452 @120 mkd), 20 mg/kg/day GZ 161 (Fab 161 @20 mkd), 300 mg/kg/day GZ 638 (Fab 638 @300 mkd). Kidney tissue from 12 month old male and female Fabry mice were tested for Gb3 levels. As shown in FIG. 17, GZ 161 and GZ 452 significantly reduced the amount of Gb3 present in kidney tissue relative to untreated controls (Fab UNT 12mo).
