The patent application (Publication Number: US20240033353A1) discloses a combination therapy for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) comprising an antibody or antigen binding fragment that binds to CD70 and a BCL-2 inhibitor, specifically Compound (I). The antibody targeting CD70 includes specific CDR sequences and can be an IgG with various activities such as ADCC, CDC, or ADCP. Additionally, the antibody may be defucosylated or specifically identified as ARGX-110 (cusatuzumab). The combination may also include other anti-cancer agents, such as hypomethylating agents like azacitidine or decitabine, to enhance the treatment efficacy.

Furthermore, the patent application details the formulation of the antibody or antigen binding fragment and the BCL-2 inhibitor as separate compositions, highlighting the potential for synergistic treatment effects when administered to human subjects with AML. The combination therapy aims to provide synergistic cell killing when cultured with specific AML cell lines, emphasizing the targeted approach of the treatment. Overall, the disclosed combination therapy presents a promising strategy for the treatment of AML by leveraging the unique properties of the CD70-targeting antibody and the BCL-2 inhibitor to enhance therapeutic outcomes in patients with this challenging disease.
