The present disclosure relates to mdm2 inhibitors for use in specific dosing schedules. It was found that if sufficiently potent or, in alternative, sufficiently high dose of a Mdm2 inhibitor is used, it can cause antineoplastic effect by triggering much longer lasting antiproliferative mechanism in cells. The long lasting effect can sustain for several weeks after a single dose, which eliminates the need for daily treatment and allows administering the Mdm2i intermittently. A treatment with the intermittent dosing schedule of a Mdm2 inhibitor can be combined with a daily treatment of the Mdm2i or with another pharmaceutically acceptable ingredient.

Intermittent dosing of MDM2 inhibitor

The present invention relates to HDM2-p53 interaction inhibitors for use in the treatment of cancer, wherein the drug is administered by a high dose intermittent dosing regimen. The present invention relates in particular to the HDM2-p53 interaction inhibitor HDM20I and the dosing regimen di, d8 of a 4 week cycle.

Dose and regimen for HDM2-p53 interaction inhibitors

The disclosure relates to a pharmaceutical combination of a mdm2/4 inhibitor, namely (S)-1-(4-Chloro-phenyl)-7-isopropoxy-6-methoxy-2-(4-{methyl-[4-(4-methyl-3-oxo-piperazin-1-yl)-trans-cyclohexylmethyl]-amino}-phenyl)-1,4-dihydro-2H-isoquinolin-3-one or (S)-5-(5-Chloro-1-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-pyridin-3-yl)-6-(4-chloro-phenyl)-2-(2,4-dimethoxy-pyrimidin-5-yl)-1-isopropyl-5,6-dihydro-1H-pyrrolo[3,4-d]imidazol-4-one, and a cyclin dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor 7-Cyclopentyl-2-(5-piperazin-1-yl-pyridin-2-ylamino)-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6-carboxylic acid dimethylamide. In addition, the disclosure relates to a pharmaceutical combination product. The disclosure also relates to corresponding pharmaceutical formulations, uses and treatment methods comprising said mdm2/4 inhibitor or a cyclin dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor.
